Sydney CBD Dentistry – Invisalign provider – Platinum Elite Status
Invisalign can treat a huge range of straightening requirements, ranging from very minor tooth movements to much more complex cases
- Invisalign is the latest technology which straightens misaligned teeth with no speech impediments, much greater comfort than conventional braces and are also virtually invisible.
- Invisalign is a part of orthodontic treatment and is also known as invisible braces. Using their patent plastic and advanced digital technology to make their clear removable retainers.
- Invisalign uses digital models of your teeth and the knowledge of your treating clinicians to devise a safe and effective way to correct poorly aligned teeth. The result is straight teeth, fast, and without braces.
- Invisalign are virtually invisible aligners made of a thermoplastic material, uniquely developed to be used in a series of custom-fitted aligners that will straighten teeth. This discrete technology has been scientifically proven to be as effective as traditional braces while delivering comfort and flexibility to patients.
- Customised – Invisalign aligners are engineered and custom made to fit over your natural teeth. These aligners use the right amount of force necessary to allow teeth to shift into an aesthetic position.
- Removability – There is no need to implement changes in your lifestyle, given that Invisalign aligners can be removed and put back on whenever you feel like eating or having a drink. It is that easy!
- Efficacy – Medically proven to be effective in orthodontic practices worldwide.
- Comfort – Avoid pain and irritation often caused by wires from traditional braces.

How does it work? Similar to normal braces, the patient’s teeth are moved with slight force and tension from the clear aligners. Depending on each individual’s case, every 2 weeks the patient will need to change to a new set of aligners. The new set of trays will be slightly altered from the last which allows the aligners to slowly move your teeth into the desirable position and ultimately straighten them.
Such technology is not without limitations. There are complicated misalignment of teeth that cannot be treated effectively by Invisalign. In such case, we also provide traditional orthodontics (braces, a treatment options that has been around for many years) with well-trained dentists and orthodontists.
Invisalign uses advanced planning software called ClinCheck, which allows patients to preview a digital simulation of their treatment progress and potential outcome. At your initial appointment, the dentist may scan your teeth digitally or take impressions, which are then uploaded into the software. This 3D model helps plan the movement of each tooth and provides an estimate of how many aligners may be required and how long treatment could take, depending on your individual case.
Because Invisalign aligners are clear and removable, they may be a suitable option for adults or teenagers seeking orthodontic treatment with a less noticeable appearance compared to traditional braces. For best results, aligners should be worn 20–22 hours per day. For younger patients, Invisalign also offers a compliance indicator, which can help track whether the aligners are being worn as recommended.
Whether Invisalign is suitable depends on each individual case, such as the degree of tooth crowding or misalignment. The best way to find out if you are a candidate is through a consultation with a dentist who provides Invisalign treatment.
Invisalign recognises certain providers with tiered statuses based on the number of cases they have managed, meaning some practices may have broader experience across a variety of orthodontic cases. At Sydney CBD Dentistry, we are recognised as an Invisalign Platinum Elite Provider, reflecting the number of Invisalign cases we have completed and our extensive experience with clear aligner treatment.
While provider status highlights experience, it is important to note that treatment outcomes and timeframes will always vary depending on each patient’s individual needs, which can be discussed during your consultation.
Remember caring for your Invisalign aligners is also as important as wearing them frequently. To avoid having bad breath or staining your clear trays. Rinse and brush your aligners every time you take out to eat or drink. You should also brush and floss your teeth after eating or drinking to prevent food particles harbouring in your teeth and on your trays. Another tip to keep them fresh, clean and clear is to brush them every night before you sleep and even use the Invisalign cleaning system.
The cost of braces varies depending on the complexity as well as the length of time. Our braces cost starts from $4,500. To give you an accurate costing it would be necessary to have an initial consultation to assess your teeth and your smile.
