Book Your Invisible Braces Appointment in North London

Invisible braces are a solid option for adults or older teens who want mild to moderate dental alignment improvements without affecting work or social life. You are a good candidate if you have crooked teeth, small gaps between teeth, or minor bite issues like a slight overbite or crossbite. Many North London patients choose this option because the aligners come out for eating, drinking, and cleaning with ease. It suits those who prioritise aesthetics and flexibility during treatment. We confirm suitability with a 3D digital scan during the initial consultation at our Finchley clinic.

First, you attend a 60-minute consultation where we take a 3D digital scan of your teeth with our advanced scanner, no messy impressions needed. From this we build a digital model of your final results. Next, we manufacture your custom aligners. You wear each set for 22 hours a day, swapping to a new set every 1 to 2 weeks. Most patients in North London find them comfortable and easy to manage. Then you have a quick 15-minute check-up every 6 to 8 weeks to track progress. A full treatment typically takes 12 to 18 months. Finally, after the teeth are straight, you receive Vivera retainers to wear at night to keep the results long term.

We price transparently with no hidden fees. Our Invisalign Full package is £4,400. This covers the initial 3D scan and consultation, all sets of custom-made aligners, any attachments needed for precise movement, and all follow-up monitoring appointments at our Finchley practice. The only extra cost is final Vivera retainers, priced at £500 for a set of three. We are a fully private practice and do not offer NHS services, but we accept dental insurance from providers including Max Bupa, Denplan, and Cigna. A detailed cost breakdown is provided before you commit to treatment.

A 35-year-old marketing manager from Highgate came with moderate crowding on the lower teeth. The Invisalign Full treatment lasted 14 months and cost £4,400. She gained confidence in client meetings as no one noticed the aligners. Another patient, a 28-year-old from Barnet, had a slight overbite and crooked front teeth. The treatment finished in 16 months. He now wears his Vivera retainers nightly to keep the smile.

While invisible braces work well for many, they are not the only option. Traditional metal braces are often recommended for more complex cases involving bite issues or tooth rotations. They are generally more affordable but highly visible. Ceramic braces are another option; they function like metal braces but use tooth coloured brackets to be less noticeable. However they can be more prone to staining and are more expensive than metal braces. During your consultation, Dr. Reddy explains all suitable options to help you choose the best treatment for your clinical needs and lifestyle.

After the active treatment with invisible braces is finished, the aftercare phase begins and it matters. To prevent relapse, you must wear a retainer. We provide Vivera retainers made from the same material as Invisalign aligners. Wear your retainer every night for life to protect the results. Also maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing and flossing daily and attending regular dental check-ups. Clean your retainers daily with a soft brush and water to keep them fresh.

To make an informed choice, here are key questions to ask any provider in North London. First, what is the total cost of the treatment including the consultation, all aligners, and the final retainers? Second, based on your case, what is the realistic estimated treatment time? Third, how much experience do you have with Invisalign or other invisible brace systems? Also ask what happens if you lose an aligner and whether there are charges for replacements. Finally, can you show before and after photos of similar cases you have treated? These questions help you understand the full scope of the treatment and choose a provider you trust.
