10 Things You Should Know About Invisalign 750 450 Dr Nino Gullotta
  • Invisalign is as close to invisible teeth straightening without braces as you will get
  • Your treatment is completely in your hands. If you don’t wear your aligners, you don’t get straight teeth – so make sure you’re diligent!
  • Quit thinking that you’re “not a candidate”. Most people are able to have Invisalign treatment and this can be confirmed with Dr Gullotta regarding your individual situation during a free initial consult
  • You can eat with your aligners in, just avoid really hard foods, sticky foods, or anything with high food colouring
  • When cleaning your aligners, avoid using abrasive materials such as bicarbonate soda or straight toothpaste as they can make your aligners appear cloudy. Liquid soap is recommended
  • Elastics can be used with Invisalign to help correct your bite. This is done by placing small slits in the aligners so you can hook the elastics on
  • In skilled hands, the results achieved with Invisalign are comparable with those achieved with braces
  • At Gullotta Orthodontics, Invisalign is available for patients from the age of 8 and up
  • Dr G charges around $7500 – $8500 for full Invisalign treatment
  • Although Invisalign is a very self-driven option for straightening teeth, we still recommend that you see an Orthodontist to coordinate your treatment rather than a general dentist. Dr Gullotta is a Platinum Elite Invisalign provider and has been issuing Invisalign for 16 years, so you know you’re in the best hands possible
