Invisalign® at Wellness Dental Bronte
Teeth straightening treatments can help your smile look healthier, younger and make it easier to care for. A properly aligned bite isn’t just about aesthetics. It can also reduce your risk of TMJ disorder, tooth decay and gum disease. If you’ve always thought that teeth straightening was for children or teens, you might be surprised to know that adults can make excellent candidates for orthodontic treatment.
“Should I Get Teeth Straightening?”
We recommend teeth straightening in instances such as:
- Orthodontic relapse after wearing braces as a child
- Gappy smiles with spaces between teeth
- Irregular tooth wear because of a misalignment
- Space concerns or crowding after tooth loss
- Adults who never had the option to straighten their smiles
After your orthodontic treatment, you can further enhance your smile’s appearance with one of our professional teeth whitening treatments!

Types of Teeth Straightening Treatments
Our practice offers different orthodontic options to choose from. We’re a certified Invisalign® provider and offer Inman aligners as well. With Invisalign, you can enjoy a translucent series of aligners that aren’t noticeable to the people around you. In reality, they’re almost invisible. Each set snaps over your teeth, applying gentle pressure to reline your smile. Simply change your trays out as directed. Invisalign patients don’t need as many appointments as people who wear traditional braces. Generally, we only need to see you about once every 6-12 weeks. During these brief visits, we’ll make sure your teeth are responding as they are supposed to and send you with the next several sets of trays. Wear your Invisalign braces for 22 hours a day, only removing them during meals or to brush and floss. They’re easier to clean and maintain than fixed metal brackets and wires. Plus, there are no irritating appliances that make it difficult to eat.
How Quickly Does Invisalign Work?
Depending on the needs of your smile, most of our Invisalign patients complete their case anywhere between 9-24 months. During your complimentary consultation, we can let you know if you qualify for Invisalign and approximately how long it will take to give you the results that you’re looking for.
Inman Aligners
If you wore braces in the past but your teeth shifted or your wisdom teeth caused a bit of crowding, you may not need to undergo complete retreatment. Rather, an Inman aligner appliance could help. With these removable mouthpieces, it’s possible to straighten your teeth in just 6-18 weeks, depending on the treatment that’s required. Inman aligners are designed to be worn 16-20 hours per day, giving you extra time to take them out for meetings, meals or other social settings. Although they’re aesthetic, you can see them when you talk or smile. So, if you take them out, it’s possible to slow down your estimated treatment time. The more you wear it, the quicker you’ll see results.
