Clear Aligner Treatment for Adults and Kids

Straightening your teeth doesn’t have to involve metal brackets, wires, or long waits. We provide clear aligner programs using Invisalign® aligners, offering a discreet and comfortable way to align your smile, without the hassle of traditional braces.

We’re proud to be among the few clinics in Hurlstone Park accredited to offer the full suite of Invisalign aligner products. Whether you’re looking into treatment for yourself or your child, you’ll receive honest advice, expert planning, and personalised care directly from your local family dentist.

For Adults: A Modern, Clear Solution

Adults love Invisalign aligners because they’re subtle, removable, and don’t interrupt their daily routine. No food restrictions; no visible hardware –  just a cleaner, simpler approach to getting straighter teeth.

Our dentists use digital imaging to plan and map out your entire case before you even start. You’ll be able to preview your future smile, understand the steps involved, and see what kind of results you can expect – all before committing.

Treatment starts from $7,000, depending on complexity and length. We also offer interest-free payment plans to make things easier. If you’re ready to explore your options, book our $359 Smile Simulation Package – a complete assessment including dental photos, diagnostic x-rays, and a 3D digital before-and-after preview of your smile.

Better Options for Growing Smiles

Early intervention can make a big difference for children. That’s why we offer Invisalign First™, suitable for kids aged six and up who are beginning to show signs of crowding, narrow arches, or jaw development concerns.

These aligners are designed with kids in mind. They’re comfortable, easy to manage, and ideal for guiding healthy growth while reducing the risk of future complications. Best of all, they often mean fewer emergency visits and less irritation than traditional braces.

Treatment for kids starts from $6,000, with flexible payment plans available.

Why You Should Choose Us for Your Care

Having your aligners managed under one roof means more convenience, better communication, and no extra travel. Our clinic offers shorter wait times than most specialists and the benefit of continuous dental monitoring during treatment.

We’re also trained in advanced methods like palatal expansion and mandibular advancement – treatments once limited to orthodontic offices. You get the benefits of advanced planning and care, delivered in a welcoming, family-oriented environment.

Why Choose Invisalign?

There are six major benefits that Invisalign offers:

  • Discretion –  Since the aligners are clear, nobody has to know you’re having orthodontic treatment.
  • Removable – You can take the aligners out to eat or go to an event.
  • Comfort – No brackets or wires means no irritation.
  • Fewer appointments – Since there is no hardware, you don’t need as many follow-up visits.
  • Ease of hygiene – You can take out your aligners to brush and floss, meaning there is less likelihood of decay.
  • Safety – Traditional brackets are cemented to teeth. When removed, they can take some of the tooth enamel with them.

Are You a Candidate for Invisalign?

Children, teens and adults can benefit from Invisalign. Children can use what is called Invisalign First aligners. They’re designed to reduce the amount of orthodontic treatment needed in the future. Teenagers can wear Invisalign without worrying about a decrease in their self-confidence. Adults love not having their appearance impacted by their orthodontics.

FAQs

What is Invisalign and how does it work?
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses clear, custom-made aligners to gradually straighten teeth. They work by applying consistent pressure to shift teeth into the desired position over time.

How long does Invisalign treatment usually take?

Treatment times vary depending on the complexity of the case but generally range from 12 to 18 months. Your dentist will provide a tailored timeline after assessing your individual needs.

Will wearing Invisalign aligners affect my speech?

Some patients may experience a slight lisp initially, but this typically disappears as you become accustomed to wearing the aligners.

Can I eat and drink while wearing Invisalign aligners?

It’s recommended to remove your aligners while eating or drinking anything other than water to avoid staining them and to maintain oral hygiene.

How do I wear my Invisalign aligners?

For the best results, you should wear your Invisalign aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day.

Instructions given to you by our dentists are tailored to your unique orthodontic journey.

If you have any questions or concerns, remember you can always contact one of our friendly staff members.

Typical Invisalign instructions:

  • Wear each aligner for a minimum of 22 hours a day
  • Remove your aligners to eat and drink, unless it’s clear, cold, non sugary liquid
  • Brush and floss your teeth before reinserting your aligners after eating
  • Use your munchies daily or more if instructed by the dentist
  • Remember to carry your invisalign case with you. If your aligners aren’t in your mouth, please have them in your case with your munchie. This will reduce the risk of accidental loss of aligners, i.e. getting wrapped in tissues and having them cleared away by a super efficient waitering staff!
  • Keep your previous set of aligners in a safe place until you move on to the next aligner.
  • Clean your aligners before inserting them with a soft brush and cold water.

Cleaning them daily with mouthwash containing hydrogen peroxide (such as Colgate Peroxyl) and soaking them with ‘Polident’ denture tablets a few times a week to prevent the build up of odour causing bacteria.. Do not put them in the dishwasher!

Is Invisalign treatment painful?

Invisalign aligners may cause some initial discomfort when a new set is first worn, but this typically subsides quickly. Unlike traditional braces, there are no wires or brackets that can irritate the mouth.

How much does Invisalign cost?

The cost of Invisalign varies based on the complexity of the case and the number of aligners needed. Your dentist will give you a detailed quote after a consultation.
What happens if I lose or break my aligners?
This is a very common question. We understand accidents happen. If you break or lose your aligner, kindly call the practice and we can inform you of the best course of action. You can also reach out to us on Facebook via https://www.facebook.com/sixtwelvefamilydental which will allow you to upload any necessary photos.

Please do not move onto your next aligner without speaking to one of our friendly staff.

Can I smoke while wearing Invisalign aligners?

Smoking is strongly discouraged while wearing aligners as it can lead to discoloration and affect the overall health of your mouth.

Do I have to avoid certain foods during Invisalign treatment?

Since aligners are removed while eating, there are no food restrictions. However, maintaining good oral hygiene after eating is crucial.

How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?

Clean your aligners with a soft-bristle toothbrush and water, or use Invisalign cleaning crystals or tablets. Avoid using hot water as it can warp the plastic.

Can teens use Invisalign instead of traditional braces?

Yes, there’s a specific line called Invisalign Teen, designed to accommodate growing mouths and includes features to help monitor compliance.

Will dental insurance cover the cost of Invisalign?

Many dental insurance plans cover part of the cost of Invisalign just as they would traditional braces. Check with your provider for specifics about your coverage.

What happens after completing Invisalign treatment?

You will likely be fitted for a retainer to maintain your new smile. Your dentist will advise on how long and how often to wear your retainer.
