Invisalign®: The Clear Alternative to Metal Braces
At My Dentist Alderley in Brisbane, we know not everyone wants traditional braces. That’s why we offer Invisalign®—a discreet, comfortable, and effective way for teenagers and adults to achieve straighter teeth and healthier smiles. With a series of clear, removable trays (aligners), your teeth are gently guided into proper alignment—without the brackets and wires.
Why Straight Teeth Matter
- Easier brushing and flossing
- Lower risk of tooth decay and gum disease
- Improved chewing and digestion
- Healthier jaw balance and function
- Clearer speech and pronunciation
- More confidence in photos, at work, and in relationships
How Invisalign® Works – Step by Step
Your Invisalign® journey is customised to your smile. Here’s what you can expect:
- Initial Exam & Smile Preview – We assess your suitability and show you a digital simulation of your future smile.
- Digital Impressions & X-Rays – Precise 3D scans are taken to design your aligners.
- Custom Trays Created – A series of aligners is made, each one moving your teeth a little closer to alignment.
- Wear & Change Aligners – Each set is worn for about 2 weeks, for 20–22 hours a day.
- Progress Check-Ins – Regular visits ensure your teeth are moving as planned.
Who Invisalign® is For
Invisalign® is suitable for many common dental issues, including:
- Mild to moderate crowding
- Overbites and underbites
- Tooth gaps
- Crossbite or open bite (in certain cases)
Why Patients Love Invisalign®
- Discreet: Almost invisible trays—most people won’t notice you’re wearing them.
- Comfortable: Smooth, BPA-free plastic means no metal brackets or wires irritating your gums.
- Removable: Eat what you love—just take them out during meals.
- Simple Hygiene: Brush and floss as normal—no special tools required.
- Predictable: Digital smile design lets you see your results before treatment begins.
Invisalign® Care & Maintenance
For best results:
- Wear aligners for 20–22 hours per day
- Remove them to eat and brush before putting them back in
- Clean trays daily with lukewarm water (never hot water)
- Change to the next aligner as directed (usually every 2 weeks)
- Attend all scheduled check-ups to track your progress
Cost & Flexible Payment Plans
We believe straighter teeth should be affordable and accessible. At My Dentist Alderley, we offer several options to make Invisalign® work with your budget:
- Preferred Provider Rebates – As a provider for NIB and HCF, you’ll receive higher rebates and predictable costs.
- Payment Plans – Spread the cost of treatment with ZipMoney, AfterPay, Humm, or Ezidebit—all interest-free options.
- DentiCare Plans – For treatment plans over $1,000, DentiCare allows you to pay in manageable instalments.
- SuperCare Access – Use early release of superannuation for significant dental treatments if eligible.
