What Invisalign Actually Is

Invisalign uses a series of clear plastic aligners - each one designed to move your teeth slightly closer to their final position. You wear each set for about two weeks, then swap to the next. The aligners are virtually invisible when worn, removable for eating and brushing, and far more comfortable than fixed braces.
Over six million cases have been completed worldwide, which makes Invisalign the most tried-and-tested clear aligner system available. The technology has been refined over more than two decades, and the predictability of treatment is now very high. For most mild-to-moderate adult cases, Invisalign is what we'd recommend first.
At Tangmere, we include a free set of retainers and a free course of prescription tooth whitening with every Invisalign case. Both are essential to the final result - retainers hold the position, whitening brightens the colour - and most practices charge for them separately.

Who Invisalign Is For:

  • Adults with mild-to-moderate crowding, gaps or alignment issues
  • Patients who don't want visible braces for work or social reasons
  • People who'd find fixed braces inconvenient for eating, brushing or sport
  • Teenagers (Invisalign also has a teen version)
  • Patients combining straightening with whitening or cosmetic work

Problems Invisalign Solves:

  • Crowded or overlapping teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • A misaligned bite that causes wear or jaw discomfort
  • Teeth that have shifted with age or after wisdom teeth came through
  • A smile that's been bothering you for years

Free Whitening + Retainers Included

Most providers charge separately for whitening and retainers at the end of treatment. We include both, as standard, with every Tangmere Invisalign case. The full programme is included in the quoted price.

How Invisalign Treatment
Works at Tangmere

1

Initial Consultation

A free conversation about whether Invisalign is right for you. We take some photos, talk about what bothers you, examine your teeth, and give you a rough idea of the timeline and cost. No commitments at this stage.

2

Detailed Scan and Planning

If you decide to proceed, we take a digital scan of your teeth, plus X-rays. Invisalign uses this scan to design the full treatment - every position your teeth will move through, from now to the final result. You see a 3D simulation of the outcome before you commit.

3

Aligners Made and Delivered

Your aligners are manufactured. Once they arrive, you come in for a fitting and we go through how to wear them, when to swap them out, and what to expect. You wear each set for about 2 weeks before moving to the next.

4

Check-Ups Every 6-8 Weeks

You come in roughly every 6-8 weeks for a quick check on progress. We make sure the teeth are tracking with the plan and adjust if needed. The check-ups are short - typically 15-20 minutes.

5

Finishing With Whitening and Retainers

Once the final aligner finishes the job, we do a course of prescription tooth whitening (included) to brighten the result. We then fit retainers (also included) to hold the new position. Some patients have retainers bonded to the back of the front teeth so they don't need to remember to wear anything. Others prefer removable retainers worn at night.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Invisalign

The average case finishes in around 6 months. Simpler cases (slight crowding, small gaps) can be done in 3-4 months. More complex cases can take 12-18 months. We give you a realistic timeline at consultation, with a preview of your specific case.

Almost. The aligners are clear plastic, very thin, and shaped exactly to your teeth. Most people can't see them when you talk or smile. Up close, in good light, someone looking carefully might notice. From normal social distance, they're effectively invisible.

You get tightness and mild pressure for the first 2-3 days of each new aligner set, while your teeth adjust. After that, no discomfort. The pressure is much milder than with fixed braces.

22 hours a day. You take them out to eat and to brush your teeth. The remaining time, including overnight, they need to be in. If you don't wear them enough, treatment slows down or stops working.

You eat with them out. For drinks, anything except cold water means taking them out, otherwise you'll stain them. We give you the full guidance at the fitting appointment.

For most cases, yes. Cheaper aligner systems (often sold online without a dentist) work for very mild cases but don't have the engineering, the follow-up, or the clinical oversight to handle anything more complex. With Invisalign you get tested technology, ongoing check-ups, and the option to refine the treatment if anything goes off-plan.

By wearing your retainers as instructed. Teeth always try to drift back to their original position after orthodontic treatment - retainers stop that. We include a free set on completion, and some patients also have retainers bonded to the back of the front teeth for permanent stability.

Tell us straight away. We can usually move you to the next aligner early, or have a replacement made. Don't go without - even a few days off-aligner can set treatment back significantly.
