HOW DOES INVISALIGN WORK?

Invisalign, as the name suggests, uses a series of invisible aligners. By invisible, we mean completely clear and transparent. Each aligner is custom-made to fit comfortably over your teeth. Along the inner surfaces of the aligners are small bumps and ridges carefully designed to push your teeth into straighter positions. Each aligner is worn for about 2 weeks before you switch them out for the next one in the series until your treatment completes.

Invisalign® is suitable for the treatment of mild bite issues such as teeth that are slightly crooked as well as more pronounced malocclusion including:

  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Crossbite
  • Open Bite

More comfortable and less intrusive than traditional braces, Invisalign® is also a great solution for teeth that are gapped or crowded.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF INVISALIGN?

Your Invisalign aligners are next to invisible once on.
Your Invisalign aligners are removable so eating, drinking and brushing your teeth feels exactly the same as always.
Your Invisalign aligners are smooth so you won’t endure any uncomfortable rubbing or irritation against your cheeks.
Your Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth and use gentle push forces for a comfortable treatment journey.

WHAT DOES THE INVISALIGN TREATMENT PROCESS INVOLVE?

At your Invisalign consultation with our experienced orthodontist Dr Nazanin , we’ll discuss whether Invisalign is right for you. If it is, we’ll take pictures and impressions of your teeth, which are then digitised. This enables Nazanin to carefully plan out every step of your treatment journey using 3D imaging software, mapping out how each of your teeth will be pushed into alignment.
All of this information will be sent to the Invisalign lab in the USA where your custom-made series of aligners are manufactured. These are sent to our practice, where we’ll show you how to pop them in and take them out.
The number of aligners you’ll need will depend on the extent of your misalignment. Each aligner needs to be worn for 20–22 hours a day and should be taken out to brush, floss, eat and drink anything except plain water. This will keep your treatment on track.
Roughly every 2 weeks, you’ll move onto the next set of aligners in the series and Dr. Nazanin will see you every 6 weeks to check it’s all going well. Treatment takes on average 12 months but you can start to enjoy your smile with growing confidence from those first few weeks as you see your teeth move into place.

Dental Implants in Wolverhampton

0% Finance & Free Consultation

At Goldthorn Dental Practice, Leading dental Implant clinic in Wolverhampton, we offer treatment with the tried and tested Binet 3i  and TRi implant systems, and will always tailor our treatments to suit your individual needs.

Dental implants are a common solution for patients who have lost one or more teeth. Unlike other solutions, such as unsecured dentures or bridges, dental implants are permanent and help to prevent the problem of bone loss that occurs when you lose a tooth.

Implants are replacement tooth roots. They are small titanium screws that are placed directly in the jawbone, using a minor surgical procedure. This can usually be carried out under local anaesthetic, although we also offer treatment under sedation for nervous patients.

Over time the implants integrate with the jawbone, providing a firm anchor for replacement teeth such as crowns, secured dentures or bridges. Your new teeth will look and act just like natural teeth. Just like natural teeth, they require good oral healthcare and regular dental check-ups to keep them in good condition. With proper care, your implants could last for life.

Dental implants can be used to replace one, several or even all your teeth. Patients lose teeth for many reasons, from accident and injury to gum disease and decay. Whatever the cause, the result is often being embarrassed to smile in public, accompanied by difficulties in eating a healthy diet and even problems with speech. When teeth are lost the jawbone slowly starts to recede. Dental implants are the only tooth replacement solution that prevents this, because they are osteoconductive.

The exact number of implants you need will depend on your individual case, and will be discussed at your initial implant consultation. To replace a single tooth, you will need one implant. To replace several or all your teeth, in many cases it is possible to support more than one replacement tooth with a single implant.

Even if you have been told by another dentist that implant treatment is not for you because of bone loss, our Implant dentist in Wolverhampton may still be able to help. Often we can rebuild the bone using bone grafts or sinus lifts, which then provide a firm base to attach your implants to.

Teeth Whitening In Wolverhampton

Do you have stained teeth that make you feel self-conscious about smiling? Teeth whitening can be a good solution for certain types of tooth staining.

Teeth can be stained by foods, drinks, smoking and certain medications. Teeth whitening is a safe procedure that can lighten the colour of your teeth by using a safe dental bleaching agent. Individual results vary and are based on your initial tooth colour and the nature of your tooth staining.

We deliver two types of teeth whitening:

1. Power Whitening

Here your teeth are whitened in the dental chair. A protective barrier is placed on your gums and lips, and a gel is placed on your teeth. A lamp is positioned over the teeth and this activates the bleaching process. Watch this clip to see how it works. After one hour you can expect your teeth to look a few shades brighter and is a popular choice with many patients who have an important event coming up where they want to look their best.

2. Home Whitening

Here we custom-make a lightweight plastic mouth tray for you that fits snugly over your teeth. You then put a whitening gel inside the tray and wear it at night or for a few hours during the day. Results are normally seen over 2 weeks and your teeth will also appear whiter and brighter.
