What is Invisalign?
The Invisalign treatment process is used to straighten your teeth by wearing clear, custom-made aligners specially designed for you by our Aria Invisalign Provider. Invisalign Clear Aligners are perfect for correcting overbites, underbites, cross-bites, gap teeth, open bites, crowded teeth and crooked teeth. The clear plastic aligners fit over and around your teeth, and your aligners will gradually and discretely align your teeth into their ideal position. Invisalign is a transparent and non-fixed alternative to other teeth alignment treatments such as braces or metal retainers.

Our Aria Dental providers can complete your Invisalign treatment in Perth for between $6,000 to $9,000* for the standard treatment and $4,000 to $5,000* for minor treatments. Your Invisalign cost can be spread out over payments if required.

FAQ: Invisalign
We’ve put together some of the most common Smile Design questions to help you make an informed decision.
Will The Invisalign Treatment Be Painful?
The force that Invisalign applies to your teeth is gentler and more consistent to achieve straight teeth. However, there may be times that there will be some discomfort with this type of dental care, although this will not be as common as with traditional braces adjustments.
Can I Get Health Insurance To Cover For My Invisalign Treatment?
Most dental insurance plans cover some orthodontic treatment (Invisalign/braces) depending on the company and your level of cover. It would be best to contact your private health insurance fund and see if you are able to make a claim on your upcoming orthodontic treatment with your current policy. Aria also offers payment plans, if required.
I Already Have Braces – Can I Switch Over To Invisalign?
Very possibly. It’s best to visit your local dentist to ask and assess. If you’d like to make the switch and explore what’s possible, you can visit us at Aria Dental and set an initial consultation appointment with one of our experienced Invisalign dentists
Since Having My Braces, My Teeth Have Shifted Back. Can Invisalign Fix This For Me?
Yes. If you’ve experienced failed Orthodontic treatment in the past, you can always explore other orthodontic or cosmetic treatment to get the results you’ve wanted with one of our experienced cosmetic dentists.
Are There Any Food Restrictions When Going Through The Invisalign Treatment?
You will have no food restrictions when going through the treatment. Unlike braces, there are no concerns about food getting stuck in the wires or hard bites taking off brackets. Invisalign allows you to enjoy any of the food you would normally eat without treatment.
How Long Do I Have To Keep My Invisalign Aligners On To Get Maximum Results?
Invisalign aligners need to be on for at least 20 to 22 hours per day to get the maximum result you want. It’s best to keep them on for the majority of the day and while you sleep.
How Do You Clean Your Invisalign Clear Aligners?
It is important to clean your Invisalign trays every time you brush your teeth to keep your set of aligners clean by the following methods from Invisalign :
- Soaking aligners in denture or retainer cleaning solution
- Lightly brushing with toothpaste
- Soaking in Invisalign brand cleaning crystals
Can I Get Invisalign If I Have Cavities?
Invisalign clear braces will not directly lead to cavities, but if you do not clean your teeth after eating, you could develop cavities as you may trap harmful bacteria. This is why it is important to remember to rinse out your set of aligners, as well as your mouth after a meal and follow your Invisalign provider care instructions.
Can I Get Invisalign After Veneers?
Yes this is possible, if the veneers are healthy, and are strongly and properly bonded to your teeth; but check with your dentist for a more detailed assessment and information.
Can Invisalign Close Gaps?
Yes, your custom-made Invisalign clear aligners can fix gaps in teeth. We can help you close gaps in teeth through an Invisalign treatment suited for you.
Can Invisalign Damage Teeth?
Invisalign clear braces have the potential to cause root damage without proper care. However, if you care for your aligners and make oral hygiene a top priority, the risk of experiencing tooth damage is low. Good oral hygiene is as simple as visiting the dentist every six months for routine check-ups and tray cleanings can help to prevent root damage from occurring.
Will Invisalign Affect My Speech?
Only for a short while. As your tongue gets used to having Invisalign aligners, you might carry a short lisp. But this will go away after a short amount of time to adjust.
Do I Need Retainers After Invisalign?
Yes, you will need to wear a retainer after your custom-made Invisalign treatment time. Invisalign moves teeth in a different method to braces, however, the result is still the same. You will need to wear retainers in order to keep your teeth straight and your Invisalign Provider will provide you with these.
