Is Invisalign as effective as traditional braces?
For many mild to moderate orthodontic cases, yes. Invisalign offers effective alignment with the added benefit of being removable and discreet. For more complex issues, we may recommend alternatives like Metal Braces or Ceramic Braces.
-
Can I eat and drink with Invisalign?
Yes, but you must remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. This keeps them clean and prevents damage.
-
Will Invisalign affect my speech?
You may notice a slight change in speech for the first few days, but most patients adapt quickly and speak normally within a week.
-
How often do I need to wear the aligners?
To be effective, Invisalign aligners must be worn 20–22 hours a day, only removing them for meals and cleaning.
-
Does Invisalign hurt?
You may experience some tightness when starting a new set of aligners. This is a sign your teeth are moving and usually subsides after a day or two.
-
How do I clean my aligners?
Rinse with lukewarm water and brush gently. You can also use specialised Invisalign cleaning crystals to keep them fresh and clear.
-
What happens after I finish Invisalign treatment?
We’ll provide three sets of custom Vivera retainers to wear at night to keep your teeth in place. We’ll also monitor your results with scheduled reviews during your aftercare plan.

Who will oversee my Invisalign treatment?

Virtually Invisible Clear Aligners
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an advanced clear aligner system designed to straighten your teeth without the need for fixed metal braces. Instead of brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, transparent trays that fit snugly over your teeth. Each set of clear aligners gently moves your teeth into a straighter position over time.
You wear your Invisalign aligners for 20–22 hours a day and remove them to eat, brush, and floss. This makes them convenient, hygienic, and lifestyle-friendly. Invisalign is suitable for a wide range of orthodontic concerns, though complex or severe bite corrections may require other treatment types. We’ll confirm your suitability during your consultation. Learn more about what to expect in Your Journey.
We’re proud to offer the highest level of Invisalign treatment in Sheffield – a package unable to be offered by general dentists.
