What are Invisalign® Lite?

Invisalign® Lite is a specialised orthodontic treatment designed for patients with mild to moderate dental alignment issues, using a maximum of 14 clear, removable aligner trays to straighten teeth within approximately 6-7 months. This streamlined version of Invisalign targets specific concerns such as slight overcrowding, minor gaps, or poorly positioned teeth, offering a virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces with the convenience of being removable for eating and cleaning. The treatment includes one refinement set of aligners within the package price, making it a cost-effective solution for those requiring less extensive orthodontic correction while still delivering the aesthetic benefits of straighter teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Invisalign Lite and how does it differ from regular Invisalign?


Invisalign Lite is a streamlined version of the full Invisalign treatment, specifically designed to address minor to moderate orthodontic issues. The key differences include:



  • Invisalign Lite uses up to 14 stages of tooth movement, while full Invisalign can use significantly more aligners

  • Lite is ideal for treating minor crowding, slight gaps between teeth, and mild alignment issues

  • Treatment time for Invisalign Lite typically ranges from 6-8 months, whereas full Invisalign may take 12-18 months or longer

  • Invisalign Lite is generally more cost-effective than the comprehensive Invisalign treatment



How much does Invisalign Lite cost at London Dental Specialists?


At London Dental Specialists, Invisalign Lite treatment starts from £1,500. We offer flexible payment options including 0% finance over 24 months, which works out to approximately £62.50 per month. The exact cost will depend on your specific treatment needs, including the total number of aligners required and the overall treatment duration. We provide a detailed treatment plan and transparent pricing during your initial consultation.



What's included in the Invisalign Lite treatment package?


Our Invisalign Lite treatment package at London Dental Specialists includes:



  • Up to 14 stages of tooth movement across all teeth

  • Comprehensive initial consultation and digital treatment planning

  • One set of additional aligners included in the treatment price (refinements if needed)

  • Option for dual-arch (both upper and lower teeth) or single-arch treatment

  • Regular monitoring appointments throughout your treatment

  • Retainers upon completion to maintain your new smile



Am I a suitable candidate for Invisalign Lite?


Invisalign Lite is most suitable for patients with mild to moderate orthodontic issues. You may be an ideal candidate if you have:



  • Minor crowding or spacing between teeth

  • Slightly misaligned teeth

  • Mild overbite, underbite, or crossbite

  • Previously had orthodontic treatment with some relapse


During your consultation at London Dental Specialists, our orthodontic experts will assess your specific needs to determine if Invisalign Lite is the most appropriate treatment option for you.



How long does Invisalign Lite treatment take?


Invisalign Lite treatment typically takes between 6 to 8 months to complete. However, the exact duration depends on your specific orthodontic issues and how consistently you wear your aligners. For optimal results, we recommend wearing your aligners for 20-22 hours per day, removing them only for eating, drinking anything other than water, and cleaning your teeth.



Is Invisalign Lite painful?


Invisalign Lite typically causes minimal discomfort compared to traditional braces. You may experience some pressure or slight discomfort for a few days after switching to a new aligner, which is a sign that the treatment is working to move your teeth. This mild sensation usually subsides within a few days. The smooth plastic material of Invisalign aligners also means there are no brackets or wires to cause irritation to your cheeks or gums.



How do I clean and maintain my Invisalign Lite aligners?


Proper maintenance of your Invisalign Lite aligners is essential for hygiene and optimal treatment results:



  • Rinse your aligners with lukewarm water every time you remove them (avoid hot water as it can warp the plastic)

  • Clean your aligners daily with a soft toothbrush and gentle, clear liquid soap (avoid coloured soaps or toothpaste as they may stain)

  • Soak aligners occasionally in Invisalign cleaning crystals or a denture cleaner

  • Always brush and floss your teeth before reinserting your aligners

  • Store aligners in their protective case when not in use

  • Keep aligners away from hot beverages and foods



What happens after completing Invisalign Lite treatment?


After completing your Invisalign Lite treatment at London Dental Specialists, you'll need to wear retainers to maintain your new smile. Initially, you may need to wear retainers full-time for a short period, gradually transitioning to nighttime wear only. Our orthodontic team will provide specific guidance based on your individual case. Regular check-ups are recommended to ensure your teeth remain in their new positions long-term. With proper retainer use and dental care, your Invisalign Lite results can last indefinitely.



Can I eat and drink normally with Invisalign Lite?


One of the major advantages of Invisalign Lite is that the aligners are removable, allowing you to eat and drink without restrictions. Simply remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. This means you can continue to enjoy all your favourite foods throughout treatment without the dietary restrictions associated with traditional braces. Just remember to brush your teeth before reinserting your aligners to prevent staining and maintain good oral hygiene.
