Invisalign Clear Aligners
Clear aligners use custom-made, virtually invisible trays to gently and precisely straighten your teeth without traditional braces. The aligners are discreet, allowing you to improve your smile whilst maintaining your everyday confidence.
Each treatment plan with Dr Shabri is bespoke, tailored to your dental anatomy, bite, and long-term smile goals. Advanced digital scanning and 3D planning allow you to see a preview of your future smile before treatment begins.
Whether you’re preparing for a significant event, a career milestone, or simply want to feel more confident in your smile, clear aligners offer a comfortable, flexible and effective solution.
Dr Shabri is an experienced Invisalign provider and also offers other advanced clear aligner systems including 32co and Spark, selecting the most appropriate system for your individual case to ensure the best possible outcome.
Straightening Teeth Is Never Just About Teeth
Orthodontics is rarely just about straight teeth. Done well, it can change how you breathe, how you hold yourself, and how your whole face comes into balance.
When teeth are misaligned or your bite is imbalanced, the impact reaches far beyond your smile. Poor alignment can contribute to jaw tension and long-term joint discomfort, difficulty chewing or speaking with ease, uneven wear and grinding that accelerates damage over time, plaque buildup in places that are harder to keep clean, and airway restriction that affects the quality of your sleep.
Every plan Dr Shabri designs begins with diagnostics, not assumptions — because true alignment considers function and health, not just appearance.
Treatment Overview
Initial Consultation & Planning
Your clear aligner journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr Shabri assesses your teeth, bite, soft tissue dynamics and facial proportions. Your plan is built on precise 3D imaging, not estimation - a CBCT scan reveals the bone structure and airway anatomy beneath your bite, while a 3D iTero scan captures an exact digital model of your smile, giving Dr Shabri the full picture needed to plan movement that improves function, not just appearance. This is also how airway and bite-related concerns are identified early, before treatment begins, rather than discovered partway through.
Custom Aligner Series
You’ll receive a progressive set of clear aligners, each worn for 1–2 weeks, gently guiding your teeth into alignment.

A Facially-Driven Approach to Alignment
Most practitioners focus solely on straightening teeth. Dr Shabri considers the entire picture. How your bite supports long-term health and function, and how your teeth integrate with your jaw, muscles and joint to enhance your natural facial balance. This is where her dual expertise in dentistry and facial aesthetics becomes essential.
Dr Shabri carefully analyses:
Facial structure and dental proportions - ensuring tooth size, gum display and smile width create natural harmony with your facial anatomy
How your teeth relate to your lips at rest and in motion
How your gum line and smile arc create symmetry and harmony
Bite alignment and long-term function, for smiles that are as healthy as they are beautiful
Her philosophy is conservative and holistic – achieving harmony, health and functionality without over-treatment. Every smile is meticulously planned to be natural, balanced, and uniquely yours.
With Dr Shabri, clear aligner treatment is more than orthodontics — it’s a bespoke smile transformation, crafted to look and feel perfectly in tune with your face.
FAQs
Am I suitable for Invisalign?
Most teens and adults are suitable. Invisalign can treat crowding, gaps, and bite issues, but a consultation with Dr Shabri will confirm if it’s right for you.
Is Invisalign suitable for all ages?
Yes, as long as all adult teeth have erupted. Younger patients must be committed to wearing their aligners as prescribed.
How long does treatment take?
Dr Shabri will provide you with a personalised timeline for your treatment based on the severity of the misaligned teeth. Treatment time is typically shorter than traditional braces, ranging from 3 to 18 months.
How long should I wear the aligners each day?
For best results, wear your aligners 20–22 hours daily, removing only for meals and cleaning.
Is Invisalign uncomfortable?
While your clear aligners shouldn’t hurt, you may feel slight pressure for the first few days of each new aligner, but it’s generally more comfortable than traditional braces.
How do I keep my aligners clean?
Rinse and clean after eating, brush your teeth before reinserting, and avoid hot water or alcohol-based cleaners.
Will it affect my speech?
You may notice a slight lisp when you first start, but most patients adjust within a few days.
How much does Invisalign cost?
Several factors can affect the overall cost of treatment for Invisalign:
- Complexity of the Case: The more complex the misaligned teeth, the longer your treatment will take, which will increase the overall treatment cost.
- Additional Treatments: You may wish to have additional treatments such as teeth whitening, additional aligners, composite bonding or veneers which will impact your overall treatment cost.
A bespoke treatment plan and flexible 0% finance plans will be discussed following your consultation.
Do I need to visit the clinic often?
You’ll typically come in every 6–8 weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned.
Can Invisalign be combined with other treatments?
Teeth whitening, composite bonding, veneers and other restorative work can complement Invisalign for a complete smile transformation.
How does Invisalign compare with braces?
Invisalign is discreet, comfortable, and removable, making it one of the most popular alternatives to braces. Braces may be recommended for more complex adjustments.
