Book Your Invisalign Full Consultation Near Barnet

Invisalign Full suits a wide range of orthodontic issues beyond cosmetic fixes. Consider it for moderate to severe crowding, large gaps between teeth, or complex bite problems such as overbite, underbite, or crossbite. Because it uses more aligners over a longer period, it can achieve a complete and stable result, typically over 12 to 18 months. It is a strong option if you want a major smile change and better dental function. For example, a Barnet patient finished a 16-month Invisalign Full plan to address lower crowding and an overbite, resulting in an aligned smile and better chewing.

Your treatment is planned from start to finish. First, you have a 60-minute consultation at our Finchley practice, where we use a 3D digital scanner to create a precise model of your teeth, no impressions needed. Using this scan, we build a personalised ClinCheck 3D plan that shows your final result before you begin. After you approve the plan, your aligners are made. Then you have a fitting appointment and wear aligners for 22 hours daily, changing to a new set every 1-2 weeks. We provide short progress checks every 6-8 weeks. At the end, we fit your Vivera retainers to keep your smile for life.

When you start wearing aligners, you might feel some pressure or mild discomfort for a few days as teeth begin to move. This is a sign the treatment is working and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief. You might notice a slight lisp, which usually fades within a week as the tongue adapts. You must remove aligners for eating and drinking anything other than water and clean them daily. For long-term success, consistent wear is essential. After treatment, you will wear a retainer nightly. This is a critical step to prevent teeth from shifting back. We provide durable Vivera retainers, made with the same advanced technology as your Invisalign aligners.

Invisalign Full is strong, but consider alternatives. Invisalign Lite is a faster option around 6-7 months but is suitable for minor corrections, such as small gaps or mild crowding. Traditional fixed braces are another option, especially for very complex bite issues. They are not removable and more visible, but often cost less. Most patients from the Barnet area prefer Invisalign Full for discretion and comfort. A recent patient from High Barnet chose Invisalign Full over fixed braces because he could remove them for important meetings, a flexibility essential for his job.

We offer clear upfront pricing. The full Invisalign Full treatment costs 4,400 pounds. This fixed price covers your initial 3D digital scan, all sets of aligners, all scheduled checkups, and any refinements. The only extra cost is for your final retainers. We recommend Vivera retainers, priced at 500 pounds for a set of three to maintain results for years. Our practice is private, so NHS orthodontics is not offered. We do accept several private dental insurance plans, including Max Bupa, Denplan, and Cigna. Please tell us during your consultation if you have coverage to use.

To make an informed choice about your treatment, here are important questions to ask any dentist, whether at our practice or another in Barnet: How many Invisalign cases like yours have you treated successfully? Does the quoted price include all appointments, mid-course corrections, and digital scans? What are the costs for retainers and replacement aligners? Based on the 3D scan, what is the realistic total treatment time for my case? Will I need attachments on my teeth, and how visible will they be? Am I a better candidate for Invisalign Full or would another treatment be more effective?
