Invisalign & Teeth Straightening

At Absolute Smiles, we offer 2 main teeth straightening options:

  1. Invisalign
  2. Orthodontic Plates


Depending on the type and amount of movement required to correct crowding or spacing issues, we will assess the best straightening option to give you the smile you want. 

Invisalign FAQs

Invisalign is a hugely popular orthodontic treatment that involves clear, removable aligners to straighten your teeth without braces.

Following a thorough consultation to assess suitability, impressions, photos and digital x-rays are taken. A 3D modelling video showing the amount of teeth movement and time required to straighten the teeth is produced, allowing patients to visualize the final result.

Custom fitting clear aligners are then ordered, fabricated and fitted. Patients receive a new set of aligners every 2 weeks, which gradually shift the teeth into their new position.

A number of dental issues can be treated with Invisalign including:

  • Crowded and crooked teeth
  • Spacing and gap issues
  • Mild Overbite
  • Mild Cross bite
  • Narrow smile

Not everyone is suitable for Invisalign treatment however, and a thorough consultation with one of our dentists to assess your teeth will always be conducted first.

Many patients choose Invisalign to straighten their teeth as it is discreet, with the aligners being almost invisible to others.

Compared to conventional metal braces, Invisalign can be a lot more comfortable, with no metal brackets that can cause painful mouth ulcers.

Invisalign aligners are removable, making cleaning and oral hygiene much easier to maintain throughout treatment.

Depending on the complexity and the number of aligners needed, Invisalign treatment can range anywhere between 9 – 18 months.

Aligners must be worn for a minimum of 22 hours a day, and should only be removed when eating and brushing.

Each case is assessed on an individual basis and costs will vary depending on the number of aligners required and the complexity of the case. An average Full Invisalign case starts at $7500.

Orthodontic Plates

For minor teeth crowding issues, an alternative treatment method involves removable orthodontic plates, that utilises wires and springs to gradually move teeth into position. This treatment is carried out exclusively with our Principle dentist Dr Joe Muscara and can be a very cost-effective and fast method for correcting minor orthodontic issues in both Adults and children.

Orthodontic Plates start at $1500 depending on the complexity of the case and the treatment time required.

Retain that Smile

Following any kind of orthodontic treatment (Invisalign or plates), retainers MUST be worn to ensure that teeth do not relapse and move back to their original position. Retainers are mainly worn at night during sleep and are made of clear acrylic (similar to an Invisalign aligner) and are comfortable to wear. They also have the added benefit of protecting your teeth from enamel wear due to grinding.

Retainers start at $260 each.
