What is Invisalign Full treatment?

Unlike limited treatment options, Invisalign Full provides an unlimited number of clear aligners to achieve optimal results for patients with more significant orthodontic needs. At London Dental Specialists, our Invisalign Full treatment includes comprehensive planning, regular monitoring, and all necessary refinements to ensure your smile transformation is successful.
How much does Invisalign Full cost at London Dental Specialists?
The cost of Invisalign Full treatment at London Dental Specialists varies depending on the complexity of your case, treatment duration, and specific dental requirements. While the typical price range for Invisalign treatment in the UK is between £3,000 and £5,500, we offer personalised treatment plans with flexible payment options to make your treatment more affordable. We recommend scheduling a consultation with our specialists for an accurate assessment and detailed quote based on your individual needs.
What is the difference between Invisalign Full and Invisalign Go?
Invisalign Full is a comprehensive treatment option designed for complex orthodontic cases with no limit on the number of aligners used, typically taking 12-18 months to complete. Invisalign Go is a shorter treatment programme suitable for minor imperfections and simple cases, using fewer aligners with treatment times as short as 4-6 months. At London Dental Specialists, we assess each patient individually to recommend the most appropriate Invisalign treatment based on your specific dental needs and desired outcomes.
How long does Invisalign Full treatment take?
Invisalign Full treatment at London Dental Specialists typically takes between 12-18 months to complete, depending on the complexity of your case. More severe alignment issues may require longer treatment times, while simpler cases might be completed sooner. Each patient receives a personalised treatment plan with an estimated timeline during their initial consultation. For optimal results and to stay on schedule, aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours daily, only removing them for eating, drinking anything other than water, and cleaning.
What payment options are available for Invisalign Full at London Dental Specialists?
London Dental Specialists offers several payment options for Invisalign Full treatment, including:
- Full payment upfront (sometimes with a courtesy discount)
- Monthly payment plans with flexible terms
- Finance options with approved credit providers
- Dental insurance coverage (where applicable)
Our team will discuss all available payment options during your consultation to help you find a solution that fits your budget.
Is Invisalign Full painful?
Invisalign Full treatment at London Dental Specialists typically causes minimal discomfort compared to traditional braces. Patients may experience temporary pressure or tenderness for a few days when switching to a new aligner, which indicates the treatment is working to move your teeth. This mild discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers if necessary. Our dental team provides comprehensive support throughout your treatment to ensure your comfort and address any concerns that may arise.
What dental issues can Invisalign Full treat?
Invisalign Full at London Dental Specialists can effectively treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, including:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbites and underbites
- Crossbites
- Open bites
- Complex tooth rotations
- Midline discrepancies
During your consultation, our specialists will assess your specific dental concerns and determine if Invisalign Full is the right solution for your needs.
How do I care for my Invisalign aligners?
Proper care for your Invisalign aligners at London Dental Specialists includes:
- Rinse aligners with lukewarm water whenever you remove them
- Clean aligners daily with a soft toothbrush and gentle, clear soap (avoid coloured or scented soaps)
- Never use hot water as it can warp the plastic
- Store aligners in their protective case when not in use
- Remove aligners when eating or drinking anything except water
