Greystone Orthodontics in Guelph, Ontario, is proud to be a certified provider of Invisalign® clear aligners. Costing no more than regular braces, Invisalign gives you a clear, convenient, and comfortable option to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.

Why Invisalign Treatment?

Faster Treatment: With weekly aligner changes, you’re on your way to the smile you want even faster. Depending on your response to treatment, particularly in mature adults, we may consider longer periods between aligner changes.

Better Fit: Aligners made from SmartTrack material are comfortable, fit well, and are easy to put on and take off.

Proven Results: SmartTrack® material and SmartForce® features are clinically proven to improve control of tooth movement with Invisalign clear aligners.

Comfortable: Invisalign clear aligner trays are not only smooth and comfortable to wear, but they’re also removable. That means you can continue doing all the things you normally would, from brushing and flossing to eating whatever you like.

Virtually Invisible: Most people won’t even know you’re going through treatment, because Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible!

Effective: Invisalign clear aligners can treat a wide range of teeth-straightening conditions, including crossbites, crowding, open bites, gapped teeth, overbites, and underbites.

Convenient: Invisalign treatment is ideal for your busy schedule since you only need to visit our office every six weeks.

The Invisalign Treatment Process

Invisalign for Adults

Your Life Is Moving. Your Smile Should Keep Up.

Invisalign clear aligners use the most advanced technology to give you your best smile yet. Using a series of aligners made with advances such as proprietary SmartTrack material, Invisalign treatment can straighten your teeth with 75% more predictability.* Plus, your smile is shaped more gently and with less pain than braces.**

The best part? Your lifestyle isn’t interrupted, which means you can still enjoy the activities you love and the foods you can’t live without. All with no unexpected trips to our office due to broken wires or brackets.

The Treatment

During your initial Invisalign treatment appointment, we will complete a scan or impression. Together with the Invisalign system’s team of specialists, we’ll craft a complete digital treatment plan and map out your best smile yet from beginning to end.

The Aligners

Invisalign clear aligners are designed to transform your smile up to 50% faster*** and are made with unique advances, such as SmartTrack material. Each aligner throughout your treatment moves your teeth gradually and predictably as you continue to live your life the way you want.

The Transformation

Throughout your treatment, you’ll see your smile transform and steadily reveal the person you’ve always imagined yourself to be. With the help of Invisalign clear aligners and our office, you’ll discover how a series of small, expertly designed tooth shifts can shape a whole new future.

Invisalign for Teens

No two teen cases are the same, which is why Align Technology is constantly advancing its Invisalign digital treatment solutions. This allows our office to deliver a unique, customized teeth-straightening solution that’s more precise and keeps your teen moving forward.

With the Invisalign system’s proprietary innovations, such as SmartTrack material, your son or daughter’s smile can transform up to 50% faster.* And as your teen becomes the person you’ve always expected, he or she will continue to enjoy the things that make a teen unique.

The Treatment

Your youngster’s smile journey begins with a scan or impression. We will work closely with Invisalign treatment specialists to develop a complete digital treatment plan to plot your teen’s best smile with care from start to finish.

The Aligners

Your son or daughter will receive Invisalign clear aligners created with the Invisalign system’s proprietary SmartTrack material. Throughout treatment, you can monitor the patient’s compliance through an indicator on the aligner. Your teen will wear the aligners for 22 hours per day but can easily remove them so there are fewer interruptions to his or her lifestyle.

The Transformation

As your teen progresses through treatment, his or her smile and life will transform through a series of small, expertly designed shifts. And with the Invisalign Teen Guarantee, you have the option to switch to wires and brackets if your teen decides against Invisalign treatment within the first six months.

Invisalign® First

Invisalign First is an innovative orthodontic solution designed specifically for children who are in the early stages of their dental development.

Invisalign First uses clear, removable aligners to guide growing teeth into their proper positions, offering a discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional braces.

Key Features and Benefits

Designed for Growing Smiles: Invisalign First aligners are tailored to the unique needs of children aged 6 to 10, addressing issues such as crowding, spacing, and narrow dental arches early on.

Important Considerations

While Invisalign First is an excellent choice for many young patients, not every child may be eligible. This treatment is most effective for children with developing permanent teeth and certain orthodontic conditions. Factors such as the complexity of the dental issue, the child's age, and their ability to follow instructions for wearing the aligners consistently all play a role in determining eligibility. Additionally, Invisalign First may not be suitable for severe misalignments or cases requiring significant tooth movement. A comprehensive assessment by Greystone Orthodontics is essential to determine if Invisalign First is the right option for your child.

FAQ

The Invisalign System Is a Series of Clear Aligners Used to Straighten Teeth

Many people think Invisalign treatment with aligners is the same no matter the provider, but that is not the case. Being a top 1% Invisalign provider, Dr. White has prescribed protocols for his Invisalign setups. The technician adheres to these protocols along with initial instructions to draft the first set-up of aligners. After that, however, every digital set-up receives detailed modifications by Dr. White himself, to customize the appliance for your particular situation. This has to be done prior to manufacturing to ensure your treatment progresses efficiently to achieve the desired result.

Time for a snack? No problem. Take out your aligners to eat or drink whenever you want. You can remove your Invisalign aligners so you can brush and floss regularly and keep your teeth and gums healthy. You can occasionally remove your Invisalign aligners to enjoy a special night out. There’s no need to change a thing. Continue your day-to-day activities while still straightening your teeth. Be yourself with Invisalign aligners. Since they are clear, you don’t have to hide your smile while going through treatment. With Invisalign treatment, it’s easy to make your smile picture-perfect for that special occasion. Invisalign treatment appointments work with your schedule. Most visits are in and out, with a quick progress check once every six weeks.

The Invisalign system is a virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth and achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. Invisalign treatment uses advanced 3D computer imaging technology to depict your complete treatment plan, from the initial position of your teeth to the final desired position. Then, a series of clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth — and your teeth only — to move them little by little. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before being replaced by the next in the series until the final position of your teeth is achieved. Your Invisalign treatment time will be determined by our office based on your specific needs.

Invisalign aligners are clear, which makes Invisalign treatment a seamless fit with your lifestyle and day-to-day interactions with others. Invisalign aligners are also removable. Unlike braces, you have the flexibility to eat and drink what you want during treatment simply by removing the aligners when you eat. You can also remove the aligners to brush and floss as you normally would for fresh breath and good oral hygiene. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign treatment does not use metal brackets or wires that could cause irritation to your mouth. In addition, you’ll spend less time in the doctor’s chair and scheduling appointments, and more time out doing the things you love. Lastly, Invisalign treatment technology allows you to view your virtual results and treatment plan before you start your treatment, so you can preview how your straight teeth will look once your treatment is complete.
