Invisalign in Edinburgh—Timeline, Comfort & What to Expect

Clear aligners make teeth straightening discreet and flexible. Here’s how a typical journey looks at Ripple Dental Care.

Your Invisalign Timeline (Typical)

1.Consultation & 3D scan – suitability check and digital preview.

2.Custom aligners – wear 20–22 hours/day; change every 1–2 weeks.

3.Reviews – see progress and adjust if needed.

4.Retention – finish with Vivera retainers to lock results.

Most mild–moderate cases: 6–18 months (varies by individual).

Comfort & Daily Life

Aligners are smooth and removable for eating/brushing. Use chewies to seat trays, keep a travel case handy, and rinse aligners with cool water (no hot water).

Can Invisalign Fix My Case?

Great for crowding, spacing and mild bite issues. We’ll confirm suitability at consult and discuss attachments or refinements if required.

After Invisalign—Why Retainers Matter

Teeth can drift without retention. Vivera retainers are clear, durable and comfy for night-time wear.
