Straighten teeth discreetly with Invisalign braces in Dunstable

Invisalign is the revolutionary way to straighten teeth discreetly. Made from a series of clear, plastic aligners, they sit comfortably over the top of your teeth.

Unlike conventional braces, there’s no brackets or wires which can dig into your mouth, meaning Invisalign is a more comfortable way to straighten teeth. Invisalign is so discreet that most people won’t even realise you’re having your teeth straightened.

Wear your aligners for a minimum of 22 hours a day and take them out to eat, drink and brush your teeth. This form of teeth straightening is more hygienic and it’s easier to take care of your teeth and gums too.

Invisalign has been used by hundreds of patients throughout Bedfordshire including Dunstable, Houghton Regis, Sewell and Totternhoe to straighten teeth. Invisalign can also help to space out crowded teeth, close gaps between teeth, move protruding teeth and correct most bite problems.

How do Invisalign braces work in Dunstable?

Consultation and Scan

At your first consultation, we’ll assess your teeth and mouth and discuss what you’d like to achieve with your smile.

We’ll then take digital images of your teeth using Invisalign’s special iTero scanner. These give 3D images show how your teeth look now and how they will look as they move through to their straightened position.

This clever technology enables you to see how your teeth will look before you even begin wearing Invisalign braces.

Treatment plan and creation of your Invisalign aligners

The 3D images of your teeth form your treatment plan and are used to create your bespoke Invisalign aligners.

Once your aligners are ready, they are sent back to Dunstable Dental Practice. We will invite you back to show you how to wear and remove your aligners and give you several packs of aligners upfront.

Wear your Invisalign aligners

You wear each set of aligners for a minimum of 22 hours per day for a set amount of time, usually a week, as prescribed by your dentist.

After this time, you move on to the next set of Invisalign aligners in the series. Each set of aligners is slightly different from the last and this allows for the gradual movement in your teeth.

We ask you back to the dental practice in Dunstable occasionally to check on your progress and provide you with more aligners.

You continue wearing your Invisalign aligners, removing them only to eat, drink and brush your teeth until you reach the last set of aligners in the series. Your teeth have by now reached their final position and you can show off your lovely new smile.

Benefits of Invisalign braces at Dunstable Dental Practice

Patients from Houghton Regis, Dunstable, Totternhoe, Sewell and throughout Bedfordshire are choosing Invisalign to straighten teeth because:

 

  • Made from clear, thin plastic, Invisalign aligners are practically invisible, meaning that most people won’t even realise you’re wearing braces
  • These removable braces make them a more hygienic way to straighten teeth. You take the aligners out to eat, drink and brush your teeth
  • Invisalign can treat a range of issues including crooked, overcrowded, gappy or protruding teeth
  • There are no brackets or wires with Invisalign, instead these plastic aligners act like mouthguards as they sit over the top of your teeth which makes them a far more comfortable way to straighten teeth
  • There are less trips to visit your dentist when having your teeth straightened with Invisalign and this is because we give you plenty of aligners up front and only check in with you occasionally to make sure that treatment is on track

FAQ's for Invisalign

What shall I do with the Invisalign aligners that I have already worn? Can I throw them away?

We would advise you to hang on to the set of aligners that you have just worn, and this is in case you break or damage the next in the set of Invisalign aligners.

What should I do if I break or lose my Invisalign aligners?

If you break, damage or lose your Invisalign braces, call Dunstable Dental Practice and talk to us. Your dentist may want to see you or depending on where you are in the cycle of wearing your aligners, you may be advised to move on to the next set or resort to the previous set in the series.

Do I have to remove my Invisalign aligners to drink?

We advise only drinking cold water with your Invisalign aligners in. Any other liquids are likely to stain your braces causing them to become conspicuous and unhygienic. You should never eat with your aligners in your mouth as you’re likely to chew straight through them and break them.

My dentist Heena and her dental nurse Adriana always give me a professional experience and are pleasant and friendly. I’ve been seeing Heena for a fair number of years now and always feel comfortable and at ease . I’m not a fan of the hygienist cleaning due to sensitivity but let Heena do it and honestly it was quick and without drama. Would recommend her and her work

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Ms. Lynne at reception, who was very nice and polite when booking the appointment over the phone. She is very patience and calm to understand both the patients and dentists availability to accommodate. It's a great customer service I experienced and would like to wish her all the very best! Great Job Ms. Lynne! All the very best for your future endeavours!

I went to Dental Practice Dunstable for a check up and needed two fillings. Dr Heena was very kind and gave me an emergency appointment after I've told her that I work in school and the only time I can take an appointment is in holidays.Dr Heena and Adriana were very friendly and talked to me all the time during my procedure.

Embarrassed to admit I don’t know the name of the hygienist I saw today and it’s not on my appointment email reminder, but she was lovely, really professional. I had the scale & polish with a different hygienist a few years ago before teeth whitening & I was honestly dreading going in today but it wasn’t an ordeal at all. She was really helpful & I will definitely not be worried about my next appointment, thanks so much

I have been coming to this Dentist for many years , at the weekend I got a chip in my back tooth , so called on Monday and got an appointment straight away , had it checked and X-rays and booked in again next day to see what treatment needed , lucky for me only a small chip so was able to have a filling . I was so pleased Mr Bukhari and the dental nurse was so calming and made me at ease very quickly as I was very anxious about my tooth and what would happen , the staff friendly and welcoming Great Dentist see you again soon Thank you
Graham R.
I had an appointment with Heena and Anaïs to have a severely broken tooth extracted. I was very wary that this may not be able to be done at the surgery. Heena assured me that she would be able to complete this procedure. Heena managed to get all of the tooth out (in 2 or 3 pieces) successfully and without any excess pain. All throughout I was asked if I was ok and not feeling pain or uncomfort.I would like to recommend this dental surgery and especially Heena and her assistant for a very professional approach.Thank you. You are Great 👍
Lorna F.

Amazing dental practice starting from the ladies at the reception who really make you feel welcomed and then every other member of the staff like dental assistants who are very friendly and professional.I have to specially mention Adam who has been amazing from the first day, very professional and very reassuring. Considering that my level of anxiety while at the dentist is very high, every member of the staff has offered reassurance and they always made me feel more calm.Absolutely everything and everyone in this place is outstanding!! As I am leaving the country soon, I wish I could take you all back to Spain with me.Thank you guys. You are amazing!

Went in to get my cavities sorted out. Got my appointment through Dano, who was very helpful and considarate. Up on my visit, I was greeted and well welcomed by a pleasant and charming reception team. Moreover, the dentist Mrs Prem was very gentle and reassuring, making sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure. I needed some drilling and fillings she did everything thoroughly while ensuring I was calm and comfortable during the whole procedure. In the end, she gave valuable insights on how to take care of dental health. It was really a good experience, I will recommend them to everyone
