YOUR INVISALIGN® JOURNEY
Here’s what you can expect when you join the happy patients who trust their smiles to specialist care on The Row.
FIND OUT WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT
It all starts with a conversation. We’ll discuss your goals, carry out a thorough assessment, and let you know if Invisalign® is right for you. Your consultation is also a chance to take a look into the future at what Invisalign® could do for your smile and have our team answer any burning questions about the journey ahead.
LET’S GO!
If you choose to go ahead with Invisalign®, we’ll start by taking digital impressions (no mess!) and design a treatment plan mapping out the step-by-step transformation of your smile. We’ll then send the scans to Invisalign® to have your custom aligners precision-made to exact specifications.
UNWRAP AND ALIGN
We’ll invite you back to The Row when we receive your first custom aligners. Our team will show the basics, like putting in, taking out, and cleaning. We’ll also give you hints, tips, and guidance on getting the most from Invisalign®.
You’ll receive a replacement aligner every three to four weeks—each moves the teeth a little closer to the perfect position. All that’s left to do now is wear your custom aligner for the recommended 22 hours daily and visit the row occasionally so we can keep an eye on progress.
WHAT A DIFFERENCE!
Treatment can take anywhere from 6-18 months, although you’ll start to notice an improvement in as little as 12 weeks. When treatment is complete, we’ll provide a night-time retainer to maintain the results. Don’t forget to visit our hygienist regularly to keep your new smile in the best condition.

BOOK CONSULTATIONFrequently Asked Questions
Is Invisalign painful?
While some people may experience mild discomfort during treatment, it is generally not considered painful.
During the initial stages of Invisalign treatment, some people may experience slight discomfort or pressure as their teeth shift into the correct position. This is a normal part of the process, and it usually only lasts a few days after switching to a new set of aligners.
Discomfort can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers, such as ibuprofen.
Is Invisalign noticeable?
The aligners are made of clear, flexible plastic that is virtually invisible when worn. This makes them a popular alternative to traditional metal braces, which can be more noticeable.
How often do I change aligners?
The frequency with which you should change your Invisalign® aligners depends on the specific treatment plan created for you by your orthodontist.
In general, however, you can expect to change your aligners approximately every 1-2 weeks.
How long does Invisalign Treatment take?
Invisalign® clear aligners can help straighten minor to complex teeth misalignment. The length of treatment can take, on average, 6-12 months, depending on how complicated your case is. Most people feel a difference wearing Invisalign aligners after three months, and results are usually noticeable after six months.
How much does Invisalign® Cost?
The cost of Invisalign® is determined by your specific needs, including the duration of treatment and the type of correction you are looking for. We offer payment financing plans to help you spread the cost—just ask for details when booking your appointment.”
After finishing treatment, how long do you need to wear retainers?
The length of time you should wear retainers depends on your individual orthodontic treatment plan and your dentist’s recommendations.
In general, you’ll need to wear your retainers regularly for at least several months after your Invisalign® treatment has been completed. During this time, your teeth will shift and settle into their new positions, and the retainers will help keep them in place.
After the initial few months, your dentist may recommend that you continue to wear your retainers at night for several years to prevent any relapse or shifting of the teeth.
