Want the best way to straighten your teeth without having to live with the “metal mouth” look of traditional braces?
Digital Dentistry is the forefront of cosmetic dental treatment. It allows patients to interact and design their smiles. Up until recently, the limitations of dental technology has held back the dream of achieving excellence. This dream is now reality at our Melbourne based practice, as we are starting to design better smiles that patients love.
We realize that the key to a successful outcome is to understand our patient’s identity. The shape, colour and size of each tooth should all seamlessly blend in to create natural looking facial aesthetics. Our technologically advanced dental studios are located on the border of Thornbury and South Preston, in an ideal location where we can help you design your best smile.
Join us for a Free Invisalign Consultation at The Smile Designer Dental Studio. Our aim is to guide you through your options, the process, and the costs involved in achieving your dream smile.

Invisalign is a series of clear, removable, plastic aligners that are custom-made for your teeth.
It’s virtually clear, so most people around you probably won’t even notice you’re wearing it. Even better, it’s comfortable— without wires & brackets that could irritate your mouth.
Invisalign aligners are made just for you with advanced 3-D computerized technology. Your clear aligners are CUSTOM-MADE for YOUR teeth, and only your teeth. Eventually, little by little, and over a time determined between you and our team at The Smile Designer, your teeth will gently move to create that smile you’ve always wanted.
Above all, our Invisalign costs are now more than affordable. With the payment plans we offer, you can choose to pay over the period of your treatment rather than everything upfront.
The treatment procedure uses multiple sets of clear, custom-made aligners to correct your teeth alignment and biting issues. Invisalign treatment can address a range of moderately complex issues, including malocclusion.
Compared to other orthodontic options, Invisalign is advanced and provides you with the following benefits:
- It is hard for others to notice that you are going through the treatment as you get clear aligners.
- These removable aligners help to improve your oral hygiene as you can remove them while brushing and eating.
- Made from plastic and no metal parts and sharp edges, Invisalign aligners gives you a comfortable, painless teeth-straightening experience.
- Compared to other orthodontic options, Invisalign gives you quicker results – in 6 to 18 months.
- The entire treatment is designed in specialised software, allowing you to know the outcome during the treatment planning stage.
Though Invisalign can address most orthodontic issues, it is not a great choice for complex teeth alignment issues. During the smile assessment, we will confirm whether the orthodontic option can work for you. If not, we will guide you to the alternate options that can address your concerns.
At The Smile Designer, we begin the treatment with a smile assessment that helps us to confirm whether Invisalign can fix your orthodontic issues. We will take digital X-rays and images to identify your teeth alignment issues and create a tailored treatment plan.
We use intra-oral scanners to take digital impressions of your teeth and oral structure. The use of technology helps us to get accurate data while providing you with hassle-free treatment experience. We will use these digital impressions and data to plan and create custom clear aligners.
What is clear aligner treatment?
The custom clear aligners are created in an Invisalign laboratory, and you will get 18-30 aligners if you are getting the full treatment. The clear aligners are in order and must be worn accordingly during different periods– each set to be worn for two weeks.
We will instruct you on how to wear the aligners and provide you with tips and suggestions to ensure optimal oral hygiene and maintenance while using the aligners.
We will ask you to visit us every six weeks for monitoring teeth movement. Our clear aligner Melbourne team will check and ensure that your teeth are moving as per the treatment plan. If necessary, we will make adjustments to your treatment plan to get accurate results based on the outcome expected from the treatment.
Appointment #1
Schedule your Free Invisalign Consultation, and at this visit, we will guide you through your options, the procedure and your estimated costs. Invisalign is sometimes done in conjunction with other cosmetic smile treatments, and it is best we have an honest discussion from the beginning. At the end of the day, our aim is to provide you with all the options and solutions to achieve that dream smile of yours.
A Non-Refundable deposit of $500 is required to schedule the next appointment
Appointment #2
Scans or moulds are taken of your teeth, together with photos and xrays. The digital smile design workup of your new bite is reviewed by our team and the outcome discussed with you one or two weeks later. This virtual treatment plan is generated by Align Technology’s unique Clincheck software, and will be discussed with you prior to ordering the aligners.
Once your Invisalign Plan, Costs & Payment agreements have been set up, your case is then ordered and takes about 2 weeks to arrive.
Appointment #3
At this stage, pre-determined attachments are placed on your teeth and any adjustments required are completed. You will go home with your first set of Invisalign trays and start your journey to achieve your new smile! We will review you at regular intervals and track your progress.
Invisalign uses their SmartTrack system, which is BPA free, and fit snugly around your gum line. There are many aligner choices out there, but there is no other treatment that has been on the market for as long as Invisalign has been, while still being the most comfortable.
Knowing how Invisalign aligners work can help you follow the guidelines and get the optimal results. The aligners are designed to fit around your teeth and make gentle pushes to move your teeth to the correct position. Importantly, not all the teeth are moved together; instead, they are moved in batches.
This means that each set of aligners are designed to address different alignment issues. You should wear the aligners in the correct order. Using the aligners in the incorrect order can not only slow down the treatment but can also complicate your teeth alignment issues.
Though these are removable aligners, you have to wear them at least 22 hours a day to get the best results. This means that you should wear the aligners all the time except while brushing and eating.
At The Smile Designer, we have specialised Invisalign plans for children. We also offer Invisalign® i7 and Invisalign Lite to address minor dental issues, and the treatment is often completed in 3 to 9 months with 7-14 clear aligners.
As the trusted name for Invisalign braces in Melbourne, we guarantee exceptional customers service to all our patients. Both traditional orthodontics & Invisalign are comparable in costs, however, treatment duration and the final outcome may vary depending on the option you pick. However, the comprehensive range of benefits of Invisalign makes it the natural choice for most patients.
At The Smile Designer, we provide various interest-free monthly payment plans by collaborating with the leading finance providers of the health industry. These plans make our Invisalign services more convenient for your pockets. You can talk to us today and learn more about these payment plans.

Retainers are an important step in any Orthodontic Treatment. It keeps your teeth stable in their new position, and prevents any relapse. If you want your teeth to remain in this new ideal position, it is best to wear your retainers as directed by our Smile Designer team.
The Invisalign aligners are made of a thermoplastic material that is medical grade and BPA free. They are uniquely custom made to fit snugly over your teeth.
Depending on the amount of crowding there is, will depend on the treatment recommended for you. Have a look at your price list above, and one of our Smile Designers will discuss all your options and costs. We also offer payment plans.
During Invisalign treatment, some people experience temporary discomfort for a few days, especially when a new aligner is inserted. This is normal, and some people say it is a feeling of pressure. This is a sign that the aligners are actually working, and helping us achieve your desired final result.
Most patients inform us that Invisalign does not affect their speech. There is always an initial period at the beginning where we have to get used to having something new and foreign in our mouths.
The aligners must be worn all the time except when you eat or clean your teeth. Invisalign recommends 22 hours a day of aligner wear. Each aligner is normally worn for 2 weeks, but the exact treatment schedule will be discussed by one of our dentists.
The best way to clean your aligners is by brushing them and rinsing them under lukewarm water. Special cleaning tablets for dental appliances can be bought over the counter from your local supermarket and pharmacy as well. It is important that you brush your teeth after each meal and before re-inserting the aligner back into your mouth.
Yes, Invisalign can correct relapse of previous orthodontics. Once your treatment is completed, a retainer will be made for you to maintain your new smile.
