Clear Aligners in Port Melbourne

If your teeth are crowded, unevenly spaced or crooked, clear aligners may be the best solution for you.

Invisalign® and ClearCorrect aligners are an invisible alternative to conventional braces. Invisalign® and ClearCorrect require each patient to wear a series of clear aligners. Treatment is monitored by Port Melbourne Dental and clear aligners are replaced about every 2 weeks.

These clear aligners will gradually guide your teeth into a straighter position, giving you the smile you’ve been dreaming about. Advantages include:

  • Virtually unnoticeable
  • Removable
  • Shorter treatment times
  • Easier to maintain 
  • More comfortable

Why Choose Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are one of the most popular choices for patients considering orthodontic treatment. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to maintain your natural appearance throughout the treatment process and get the straighter smile you’ve always dreamed of.

The smooth and comfortable design of clear aligners minimises potential irritation and soreness often associated with metal brackets and wires in traditional braces. The convenience of removable aligners also ensures you can continue to enjoy your favourite foods and maintain optimal oral hygiene practices with ease. Additionally, clear aligners often require fewer in-person appointments, making them an ideal choice if you have a busy lifestyle.

Here are some of the other advantages of clear aligners:

  • Aligners are made of smooth BPA-free plastic. This reduces irritation and discomfort that often arises with wires and brackets.
  • Keeping your aligners clean is simple. You can rinse them with water or by using recommended denture cleaners.
  • Clear aligners can effectively treat various orthodontic issues including crowded teeth, gaps, underbites, overbites and crossbites.
  • No wires or brackets that can cause irritation to your gums and cheeks.
  • Each set of aligners is custom made for your individual teeth according to your personalised plan which enhances the effectiveness of your treatment.
