A makeover limited to whitening and bonding can take a few weeks. Where alignment is included first, the overall plan usually runs from several months to around a year, followed by retention and review.

Invisalign starts from £2,950 at this practice. The final fee depends on the complexity of tooth movement, the aligner plan and the retention required, and is confirmed in writing after assessment.

Invisalign treatment commonly takes several months, but the duration depends on the movements required and how consistently the aligners are worn. Refinement aligners and retention are planned where needed.
