Straighten your teeth without the metal.

Straighten your teeth without anyone noticing

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, virtually invisible plastic aligners to gradually move your teeth into the desired position. There are no metal brackets, no wires, and no monthly tightening appointments. You simply swap to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks.

At Smile Spot Mawson Lakes, Dr Sunny has a special interest in orthodontics and can assess whether Invisalign is right for your situation. We offer Invisalign treatment for both teens and adults.

How Invisalign works

Step 1 — Consultation and scan

We take a 3D digital scan of your teeth — no messy impressions needed. This allows us to map out your treatment and show you a digital preview of how your teeth could look.

Step 2 — Custom aligners made

Your full set of aligners is manufactured from the digital plan. Each aligner is slightly different, progressively moving your teeth toward the final position.

Step 3 — Wearing your aligners

You wear your aligners for 20–22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink (anything other than water), brush, and floss. You change to a new set every 1–2 weeks as directed.

Step 4 — Progress check-ins

You'll have periodic check-in appointments (typically every 6–8 weeks) so we can monitor your progress and ensure treatment is on track.

Step 5 — Retainers after treatment

Once your teeth reach their new position, retainers are essential to keep them there. We'll provide custom retainers and advise on how long and how often to wear them.

Invisalign advantages

• Virtually invisible when worn — most people won't notice
• Removable for eating and cleaning — no food restrictions
• Easier to maintain oral hygiene throughout treatment
• Generally fewer clinic visits than traditional braces
• See a digital preview of your expected results before starting

Treatment timeline

Treatment times vary depending on the complexity of your case. Simple corrections may take as little as 6 months, while more complex movements typically take around 12–18 months. Dr Sunny will give you a clearer estimate after your initial assessment.

Is Invisalign right for you?

Invisalign is suitable for a wide range of alignment and spacing issues, including crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Severely complex cases may still be better addressed with traditional orthodontic treatment — we'll give you an honest assessment at your consultation.

The most important factor is compliance — the aligners need to be worn consistently to achieve the planned movement. If you're committed to wearing them as directed, Invisalign can be highly effective. Individual results vary.
