Every smile begins with a consultation

The first step is understanding your smile—not just your teeth.

During your consultation, your orthodontist will assess your:

• Tooth alignment
• Bite (how your upper and lower teeth fit together)
• Jaw relationship
• Oral health
• Smile goals

This appointment helps determine whether Invisalign is the right treatment for your needs. While Invisalign can treat many orthodontic concerns, every case is different, and some patients may benefit from alternative treatment options.

Creating a digital 3D model of your teeth

Once Invisalign has been recommended, the next step is capturing a highly accurate digital model of your teeth.

At Skin ‘n Smiles, we use the iTero Lumina™ 3D scanner, which creates detailed digital impressions without the discomfort of traditional moulds.

The scan takes only a few minutes and produces a precise three-dimensional model of your teeth and bite.

Besides being more comfortable, digital scanning also provides greater accuracy for treatment planning and aligner fabrication.

Planning every tooth movement

This is where orthodontic expertise makes the biggest difference.

Using specialised Invisalign software, your orthodontist carefully plans how each tooth should move throughout treatment.

Rather than moving all the teeth at once, every movement is digitally mapped in a carefully controlled sequence to achieve the desired result while maintaining a healthy bite.

Treatment planning also considers factors such as:

• Tooth position
• Bite correction
• Facial aesthetics
• Long-term stability
• Overall treatment goals

This personalised planning forms the foundation of your entire Invisalign journey.

Seeing your future smile

One of the advantages of digital treatment planning is that you can visualise the planned changes before treatment begins.

Using your digital scan, your orthodontist can show you a simulation of how your teeth are expected to move over time and what your smile may look like at the end of treatment.

While every patient’s results are unique, this visualisation helps you better understand your treatment plan and the improvements being targeted.

Your custom Invisalign aligners are created

Once the treatment plan is approved, your series of custom Invisalign aligners is manufactured specifically for your teeth.

Each aligner is designed to make small, carefully controlled movements that gradually bring your teeth into their planned positions.

You’ll typically wear each set of aligners for one to two weeks before progressing to the next stage, as advised by your orthodontist.

Regular reviews keep treatment on track

Invisalign treatment doesn’t end when you receive your aligners.

Throughout your treatment, you’ll attend regular review appointments so your orthodontist can monitor your progress and ensure your teeth are moving as planned.

These visits allow adjustments or refinements if needed and help ensure your treatment continues safely and predictably.

Finishing treatment and protecting your results

Once your Invisalign treatment is complete, retainers are usually recommended to help maintain your new smile.

Teeth naturally have a tendency to shift over time, and wearing retainers as advised helps preserve your treatment results for the long term.

Your orthodontist will explain the most appropriate retainer option for your individual case and provide guidance on how and when to wear it.
