Are you ready to embrace the smile you’ve always dreamed of? With our clear aligner options including SureSmile & Invisalign, there’s never been a better time to take the plunge. Whether you’re a teenager, young professional, or enjoying the golden years, straightening your teeth with clear aligners works for everyone of all ages. It’s truly a game-changer in cosmetic dentistry, offering an effective, fast-acting, and discreet way to straighten teeth while fitting seamlessly into your lifestyle.

At Horbury Dental Care & Implant Clinic, we’ve helped countless patients achieve straighter, healthier, and more confident smiles with our teeth straightening options. Ask any of our fab team at Horbury in Wakefield, what’s the most common thing they hear when our patients finish their treatment and see their amazing new smile it’s overwhelmingly “I should’ve done this years ago!” We get such a thrill when we see the sheer glee our patients experience when they end up with beautiful teeth and a new smile that lights up the room. And it’s all down to the magic of clear aligners, a treatment that ticks all the boxes for teeth straightening:

  • Effective Results: Both SureSmile & Invisalign are clinically proven to correct a wide range of orthodontic issues, from simple spacing to more complex bite alignment.
  • Fast-Acting: Depending on your individual case, both Suresmile & Invisalign treatment can be as quick as 6 months. Our SureSmile system generally requires less adjustments so is usually slightly quicker than Invisalign.
  • Discreet: The clear aligners are virtually invisible, so you can smile confidently throughout the process.
  • Easy to Clean and Maintain: Simply remove your aligners for eating and brushing, making oral hygiene a breeze.
  • Straight Teeth for Life: With proper care and post-treatment retainers, your new smile is here to stay.

To help you feel confident about taking the next step, our experienced dentists have compiled the Top 10 Most Frequently Asked Questions About Invisalign In Wakefield

  1. How Does Invisalign & SureSmile Work?
    Both sytsems use a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position. Each aligner is worn for 1-2 weeks before progressing to the next one in the series.
  2. Are Clear Aligners Suitable for Everyone?
    Yes! SureSmile & Invisalign works for teens, adults, and even seniors. Whether you’re dealing with minor crowding or more complex alignment issues, you’ll get the solution you need.
  1. How Long Does Invisalign & SureSmile Treatment Take?
    Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case. For most patients, it takes 6 to 18 months. During your consultation, we’ll provide a personalised estimate for your smile journey.
  1. Are Clear Aligners Really Invisible?
    While not 100% invisible, SureSmile & Invisalign aligners are made from clear, medical-grade plastic and are virtually unnoticeable. Most people won’t even realise you’re wearing them.
  1. Can I Eat and Drink with Invisalign & SureSmile?
    Yes, but with a catch—you’ll need to remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water. This helps keep them clean and ensures they stay clear and effective.
  1. Do Clear Aligners Hurt?
    You may feel mild discomfort when switching to a new aligner as your teeth adjust, but it’s much less painful than traditional braces. Many patients describe it as a slight pressure—a sign that it’s working!
  1. How Often Do I Need to Wear My Aligners?
    To achieve the best results, wear your aligners for 20-22 hours a day, removing them only for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
  1. What Happens If I Lose an Aligner?
    Don’t panic! Contact us immediately, and we’ll guide you on the next steps, which may include wearing your previous aligner or moving ahead to the next one.
  1. How Do I Clean My Aligners?
    Clean your aligners daily with lukewarm water and a soft toothbrush or Invisalign cleaning crystals. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic.
  1. Is Invisalign & SureSmile Expensive?
    The cost of Invisalign varies depending on the complexity of your treatment. At Horbury Dental Care & Implant Clinic, we offer flexible payment plans to make your journey to a beautiful smile as affordable as possible. SureSmile tends to be a slightly less expensive option.
