Your Invisalign Journey with Dentexcel
Welcome to Dentexcel, London's premier dental clinic specialising in Invisalign treatment for achieving beautiful smiles. If you're considering Invisalign, you're embarking on an exciting journey toward your dream smile. Let's explore what to expect during your Invisalign experience with Dentexcel.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a modern teeth-straightening treatment that utilises a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your teeth into optimal positions. These virtually invisible and removable aligners allow you to maintain your lifestyle without the inconvenience of traditional braces. Compared to traditional braces, Invisalign treatment typically takes as little as 12 weeks for completion.
Before Treatment: Getting Started
Consultation
Your Invisalign journey at Dentexcel begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this visit, we'll discuss your smile goals and assess if Invisalign is suitable for you. We'll also review the treatment process and discuss financing options. Occasionally, alternative treatments such as veneers or composite bonding might be recommended based on your needs.
Pre-Treatment Assessments
Before commencing Invisalign treatment, we conduct thorough assessments of your dental health, including:
Detailed examination of your teeth and mouth
Check-up to assess the health of your teeth and gums, especially if you haven't had one in the past six months
Orthopantomogram (OPG) or panoramic X-ray to detect any abnormalities
3D scan or impressions using our advanced iTero scanner, providing a preview of potential results
ClinCheck (Treatment Plan) and Digital Smile Design (DSD)
At Dentexcel, your 3D scan or impressions are sent to Invisalign to create your personalised treatment plan known as a ClinCheck. This plan outlines the weekly movements of your teeth, estimates treatment duration, and identifies any necessary pre-treatments. Alternatively, you can opt for a personalised smile transformation with Dentexcel's cutting-edge Digital Smile Design (DSD), adhering to the 5 Smile Makeover Standards for superior results. Our DSD Planning Centre ensures meticulous crafting and quality-checking of your treatment plan, empowering you to make informed decisions about your smile makeover.

During Treatment: What to Expect
Wearing Aligners
For optimal results, wear your aligners for 20-22 hours daily, removing them only for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene. Switch to a new set of aligners every 2-4 weeks, with regular appointments every 2-4 weeks to monitor progress and make adjustments. Most treatments last between 3 to 9 months.
End of Treatment: Achieving Your Dream Smile
After completing your final set of aligners, your attachments will be removed, revealing your new smile!
After Treatment: Maintaining Your Results
Retainers
To maintain your newly straightened teeth, wear retainers recommended by Dentexcel:
Removable retainers, typically worn at night
Fixed retainers, bonded to the back of your teeth to prevent them from shifting back
Finishing Touches
Enhance your new smile with additional treatments like teeth whitening and enamel reshaping, often included in our treatment packages for a complete smile transformation.
Embracing Your Invisalign Journey
Invisalign offers a comfortable and effective way to achieve a straight smile. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners cause minimal discomfort and do not interfere with eating or oral hygiene. By following the treatment plan and wearing aligners consistently, you'll enjoy the journey and love the results.
