We are an accredited provider of Invisalign, a great way to discreetly straighten teeth without the hassle of having brackets and wires fixed to your teeth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do they look like?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Instead of brackets and wires, <strong>Invisalign in St John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> is made up of aligners that look more like very thin plastic mouth guards moulded to the teeth, hugging them so tightly that, once they are snapped on, they are pretty much impossible to see.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do they work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Instead of one device, you receive a series of aligners. Each one has pressure points carefully designed into it and these press on your teeth. You start at aligner number one and work your way through them, changing each one for the next when that feeling of pressure wears off, which takes 7-10 days. How many aligners you will need to wear depends on the severity and complexity of your alignment issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cleaning and eating<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You take your aligners out to clean them, and also whenever you consume anything other than plain water. This means you can continue to eat whatever you like. You need to wear them for at least 20 hours a day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>After completion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Treatment with <strong>Invisalign in St John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> takes, on average, a year and afterwards you will need to wear a retainer to keep your teeth in their new positions while they settle in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There aren\u2019t many people who wouldn\u2019t like to have a lovely smile full of straight teeth.
