Teeth straightening has come a long way in recent years. While traditional fixed braces are still widely used and effective, more adults and teenagers are now choosing Invisalign—a clear aligner system designed to fit modern lifestyles without compromising on results.
At Freshdental, your Invisalign journey is led by Dr Monik Vasant, one of the UK’s leading Invisalign Ambassadors and a global clinical trainer, alongside our award-winning Specialist Orthodontist, Dr Brian Dunne. Together, they bring exceptional skill and knowledge in both cosmetic and orthodontic care, ensuring you receive the highest standard of treatment.
As a Platinum Invisalign provider, Freshdental transforms over 100 smiles each year in London, ranging from minor alignment improvements to complex orthodontic cases.
Invisalign uses a series of clear, custom-fitted aligners made from a flexible medical-grade plastic called SmartTrack. Designed for comfort and precision, these aligners gently guide your teeth into better alignment with small, gradual movements.
Because they’re removable, there’s no need for metal wires or brackets. You can eat what you like and keep up your brushing and flossing routine with ease, making Invisalign a discreet and convenient choice for straightening your smile.
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign has no metal wires or brackets, and the aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing.
Invisalign now addresses nearly all types of misalignment, including:
At Freshdental, we perform a thorough assessment to determine whether Invisalign is right for you. Your individual treatment plan is based on your bite, dental health, goals, and lifestyle.
1. Your Personalised Consultation
It all starts with a thorough visit to Freshdental, where we take the time to understand your smile goals. We’ll carry out a full dental check-up, capture detailed high-quality intraoral photos, scan your teeth using our state-of-the-art iTero 3D scanner, and assess your bite. Most importantly, we’ll have an open conversation about what you’re hoping to achieve.
2. Creating Your Custom Aligners
Using your 3D digital scan, Invisalign creates a series of aligners designed specifically for your smile. Each one is carefully crafted using advanced 3D printing technology to move your teeth gently and precisely. You’ll usually switch to a new set every one to two weeks.
3. Daily Aligner Wear
To get the best results, you’ll need to wear your aligners for around 20 to 22 hours a day. They’re easy to pop out when it’s time to eat, drink (anything other than water), brush, or floss—making it simple to fit treatment into your daily routine.
4. Check-Ins to Track Your Progress
Every 6 to 8 weeks, you’ll visit Freshdental for a short review appointment. We’ll check how your smile is progressing, make any small adjustments if needed, and give you your next sets of aligners. These check-ins are quick, but they’re important for keeping your treatment on track and giving you a chance to ask any questions along the way.
5. Keeping Your New Smile
Once your aligners have done their job, it’s time to maintain your results. We’ll provide you with custom retainers to wear at night, helping to keep your teeth beautifully aligned and your smile exactly where it should be.
Treatment time depends on the complexity of your case. Minor alignment adjustments may take as little as 3 to 6 months, while more involved movements could take 12 to 18 months or longer.
Our specialist orthodontist will provide a clear estimate after reviewing your case with 3D scans and planning software. Regular wear and good oral hygiene also contribute to efficient progress.
Invisalign is a regulated medical treatment that must be prescribed and managed by a qualified dental professional.

We also offer flexible finance plans to make Invisalign more affordable for our patients choosing our dental clinic in London, because achieving a confident, straighter smile shouldn’t be out of reach.
Is Invisalign painful?
Not quite—but you might feel a bit of pressure or tightness when you switch to a new aligner. That’s a positive sign that your teeth are moving as planned. Most people find it very manageable, especially compared to fixed braces, since there are no metal parts to rub or irritate your mouth.
Can I eat or drink while wearing the aligners?
No, you’ll need to take your aligners out when eating or drinking anything besides water. This helps avoid damage or staining and keeps both your mouth and aligners clean and fresh.
Are the aligners noticeable?
Invisalign aligners are designed to be very discreet. Made from clear, medical-grade plastic, they fit snugly and blend in with your natural smile. They’re not completely invisible, but most people won’t notice you’re wearing them.
How often will I need to visit the dentist?
We’ll usually see you every 6 to 8 weeks for a quick check-up. These visits help us monitor your progress, answer any questions, and give you your next sets of aligners, keeping everything on track for the best results.
