Straighten your teeth comfortably with Invisalign® in Truro
A straight smile isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about confidence, comfort, and long-term oral health. If you’re looking for a discreet, comfortable, and effective way to straighten your teeth, Invisalign could be the perfect solution.
At our dental practice in Truro, we offer Invisalign® clear aligners, a modern alternative to traditional braces that allows you to achieve beautifully aligned teeth without metal brackets or wires.
What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign is a clear aligner system designed to straighten teeth using a series of custom-made, removable aligners. These aligners gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position, offering a more comfortable and nearly invisible solution compared to traditional braces.
Unlike fixed braces, Invisalign aligners are:
✔ Clear and discreet – Virtually invisible when worn
✔ Removable – Eat, drink, and brush as normal
✔ Comfortable – No wires or brackets causing irritation
✔ Custom-made for precision – Tailored for your unique smile
Invisalign® is an ideal option for adults and teenagers who want straighter teeth without the inconvenience of metal braces.
How does Invisalign® work?
- Consultation and smile assessment
Your journey starts with a detailed consultation, where we assess your teeth and discuss your smile goals. Using advanced digital scans, we create a 3D simulation of your treatment, showing how your teeth will move over time.
- Custom aligners are created
Based on your personalised treatment plan, a series of custom-made aligners are produced. Each set of aligners is designed to make small, gradual adjustments to your teeth.
- Wearing your aligners
You’ll wear each set of aligners for 20-22 hours a day, changing to a new set approximately every 1-2 weeks. The aligners work by applying gentle pressure to guide your teeth into their new position.
- Regular check-ups
We’ll schedule check-ups every 6-8 weeks to monitor your progress and ensure your treatment stays on track.
- Enjoy your new smile
Once your Invisalign treatment is complete, we’ll provide you with dental retainers to maintain your beautifully straight smile.

Life with Invisalign®: What to expect
Adjusting to Invisalign is generally easy, especially compared to traditional braces. However, knowing what to expect can help you get the best results and stay motivated throughout your treatment.
Here’s what life with Invisalign looks like:
Wearing your aligners: You’ll need to wear them 20–22 hours per day. Most patients find them easy to adapt to after the first few days.
Eating and drinking: Aligners should be removed when eating or drinking anything other than water. This helps prevent staining and damage.
Brushing and flossing: Oral hygiene is easier than with braces — you can brush and floss as normal.
Speaking: You may notice a slight lisp at first, but this usually disappears quickly.
Staying on track: Stick to your aligner schedule and attend regular check-ups to keep your progress on track.
We’re always here to support you throughout your Invisalign journey.
