Invisalign Clear Braces
Invisalign Care at 19 Wimpole Street Dental Practice, Marylebone
Straightening your teeth doesn’t have to mean months of visible metal braces. At 19 Wimpole Street Dental Practice, we offer Invisalign clear aligner treatment in the heart of Marylebone — combining one of the world’s most trusted teeth-straightening systems with the specialist clinical oversight you’d expect from a practice based in London’s Harley Street medical district.
Invisalign works using a series of custom-made, removable clear aligners that gradually guide your teeth into position. For many patients, they offer a more comfortable and manageable alternative to fixed braces:
- Nearly invisible — clear aligners are discreet enough that most people won’t notice you’re wearing them
- Removable and flexible — take them out to eat, drink, and clean your teeth as normal, with no dietary restrictions
- Tailored to you — every set of aligners is custom-made to your smile, with treatment times that reflect the complexity of your case
We treat a wide range of cases at our Wimpole Street practice, from minor spacing issues to more complex bite corrections, and every treatment plan is designed around your smile, your lifestyle, and your long-term dental health.
Is Invisalign Right For Me?
Invisalign is suitable for a wide range of cases, and is a popular choice for both adults and teenagers looking for a discreet alternative to fixed braces. It can be used to treat:
- Crowded teeth — where there isn’t enough space for teeth to sit naturally in position
- Gaps between teeth — excess spacing that can affect both appearance and gum health
- Overbite and underbite — where the upper or lower teeth extend too far forward
- Open bite — where the upper and lower teeth don’t meet correctly when the mouth is closed
- Crossbite — where some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth rather than outside
That said, suitability depends on the complexity of your individual case and the overall health of your teeth and gums. The best way to find out if Invisalign is right for you is to book a consultation at our Marylebone practice, where we’ll assess your smile and walk you through your options — with no obligation to proceed.

The Invisalign Clear Braces Process at 19 Wimpole Street, Marylebone.
Your Invisalign Journey in Marylebone
1. Consultation
Your first appointment is a relaxed, no-obligation conversation. We’ll take a look at your teeth, review your dental history, and talk through whether Invisalign is the right fit for your smile and lifestyle. There’s no pressure — just an honest assessment and a clear explanation of what treatment would involve for you specifically.
2. Planning & Treatment
Using our iTero 3D scanner, we’ll take a precise digital scan of your teeth — no messy moulds or impressions required. This feeds directly into Invisalign’s ClinCheck software, which maps out the full movement of your teeth from start to finish, letting you see your projected results before treatment even begins. From there, your custom aligners are made, and you’ll work through each set in sequence, typically wearing each one for one to two weeks.
3. Aftercare
Once your teeth have reached their new positions, we’ll fit you with retainers to keep them there. We remain on hand throughout and after your treatment for any questions — whether that’s about cleaning your aligners, storing them safely, or anything else that comes up along the way.
Your Questions Answered
about Invisalign at 19 Wimpole Street, Marylebone
Patients at 19 Wimpole St Dental Practice in Marylebone often ask if Invisalign treatment is painful. While some individuals report a feeling of pressure on their teeth when they switch to a new set of aligners, this sensation is entirely normal and to be expected. This temporary tightness simply indicates that your teeth are effectively being guided into their new, desired positions. Any similar feeling of pressure or tightness is commonly experienced with virtually any type of orthodontic brace, demonstrating the active movement of your teeth towards a straighter smile.
Invisalign clear braces offer several benefits over traditional metal braces. They are nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth discreetly. The aligners are removable, making it easier to eat, drink, brush, and floss without restrictions. Invisalign also provides a more comfortable experience, as there are no metal wires or brackets to cause irritation. Additionally, treatment is often faster for mild to moderate corrections, and digital treatment planning allows you to see a preview of your expected results before you even start.
Keeping your Invisalign aligners clean is important for both oral hygiene and the longevity of the aligners. Rinse them under lukewarm water each time you remove them. Gently brush the aligners with a soft toothbrush — separate from your regular toothbrush — using clear, mild, anti-bacterial soap or a designated Invisalign cleaning solution. Avoid toothpaste, as it can be abrasive and scratch the aligners. For a deeper clean, you can soak your aligners in Invisalign cleaning crystals or a recommended denture-cleaning solution according to the instructions. Always rinse thoroughly before placing them back in your mouth.
The length of Invisalign treatment varies depending on the complexity of each case. For minor adjustments, aligners may work in as little as 6 to 9 months, while more significant orthodontic corrections can take 12 to 18 months or longer. During your initial consultation, your Marylebone dentist will assess your teeth and provide a personalised treatment plan, including an estimated timeline. Regularly wearing your aligners for the recommended 20–22 hours per day is essential for achieving the best results within the expected timeframe.
