Clear aligners such as Invisalign offer a discreet, flexible alternative to traditional braces. At Dalkeith House Dental Practice, we provide personalised aligner treatment plans designed to improve your smile without interrupting your lifestyle.
Using digital scans — not messy impressions — we create a 3D model of your teeth to map out your full treatment journey. You’ll even be able to see a preview of your future smile before you begin.
Invisalign is effective for:
• Crowding
• Gaps
• Crossbite
• Overbite
• Overlapping teeth
If you want a straighter smile without metal brackets or wires, aligners may be the ideal solution.
Professional whitening gives you natural, healthy radiance — not an artificial, overly bright look.
Your Invisalign journey includes:
Consultation & suitability assessment
Digital scan of your teeth
Personalised treatment simulation
Delivery of your aligners
Regular progress reviews
Retainers at the end to maintain your results
