At Ropergate Dental Practice, based in Pontefract, our professional dentists work hard to create smiles that are healthy as well as attractive. Helping our patients achieve straight teeth with Invisalign is something we’re passionate about, as not only can this boost your appearance, but it can have oral health benefits, too. 

Our patients know us for being keen aficionados of Invisalign adult braces, which is one orthodontic option for creating straight teeth. Read on to find out more about it, including how long it takes, what you can expect from the process and how we can create results you’ll love. 

So, how long does it all take?

Patients can expect a typical treatment time to last between 12-18 months, though this varies on a case-by-case basis. 

What benefits can I expect?

Of course, many patients turn to Invisalign braces as teeth straightening treatment to give them more aligned teeth and a healthier-looking smile. But did you know there are other dental health issues that Invisalign can be used to treat?

Bite issues – Invisalign is known for helping correct overbite, underbite, open bite and crossbite. Bite issues can lead to wear and tear on the teeth, as well as potential pain in the jaw. 

Gum inflammation – a sign of gum disease, which can be brought about by poor oral care. It can be harder to clean your teeth when you have spacing issues (such as gaps or crowding). Invisalign can correct both. 

Cavities – as above, these can form more easily in teeth that are misaligned, as this type of smile can be more difficult to brush and floss correctly. 

Confidence – it might not be an oral health benefit, but confidence can do wonders for your mental health! A happy, healthy smile no doubt opens more doors, too.

What results can I expect?

Part of the magic of Invisalign is the use of clever imaging to calculate your treatment at each stage and to build a picture of your anticipated results. This helps give a more predictable outcome, as well as a clearer indication of how long treatment will take. There’s also an app to help track your progress along the way. 

What about refinements?

These can be a part of the Invisalign process, which will be discussed with you at the relevant time. It’s a way of fine-tuning the teeth to ensure you have results you’ll love for years to come.
