How Invisible Braces Work

Customised Treatment Plan: Your journey begins with a detailed consultation at Albany Creek Dental, where we use advanced imaging technology to create a precise 3D model of your teeth. This model helps us to design a customised treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Custom Clear Aligners: Based on your treatment plan, a series of custom-made clear aligners are created specifically for you. These aligners are designed to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position.
Progress Monitoring: Throughout your treatment, you’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series. Regular check-ups with our dental team ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned and allows us to make any necessary adjustments.
Completion and Retention: Once you’ve completed your series of aligners, your teeth will have reached their new, straighter position. To maintain your beautiful new smile, we may recommend wearing a retainer at night.

Regular Appointments: To ensure optimal results, we’ll schedule regular appointments to monitor your progress and provide you with your next set of aligners.
Duration: The total treatment time varies depending on the individual case but typically ranges from 6-9 months.
