Invisalign is a teeth-straightening system that uses a series of clear, removable aligners. Each set is worn for about 2 weeks, then swapped for the next in the sequence. Your teeth move gradually until they reach the position planned by your dentist.
The aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic. Most people won’t notice you’re wearing them. You take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss, then put them back in afterwards. You’re expected to wear them for 20 to 22 hours a day.
Invisalign works well for most common alignment issues, including:
At your free consultation, Dr Amit Devlukia will assess your teeth and tell you honestly whether Invisalign is a good fit. A small number of cases are better suited to fixed braces. If that’s you, he’ll say so at the consultation rather than after you’ve committed.
It depends on how much movement your teeth need. Simple cases can be complete in 6 months. More involved cases typically run 12 to 18 months. Dr Amit will give you a specific estimate after reviewing your 3D scan at the consultation — not a vague range, but a real timeline based on your actual teeth.
Take them out for meals, brushing, and special occasions. No dietary restrictions.
Each aligner is made from a precise digital scan of your teeth. No putty impressions.
Clear plastic that sits close to your teeth. Hard to spot at normal conversation distance.
Remove the aligners before eating or drinking anything except cold water.
Smooth plastic with no wires or brackets. Most patients adjust within a few days.
Dr Amit examines your teeth, bite, and gum health to check suitability. This isn’t a sales pitch — it’s a clinical assessment.
Using our iTero scanner, you’ll see a digital model of how your teeth are likely to move during treatment. No impression trays.
Most patients who come in are suitable for Invisalign. If another option would work better for you, Dr Amit will tell you why.
Invisalign at Stag Lane starts from £2,750. We offer 0% finance, so you can spread the cost interest-free. We’ll talk through the numbers in plain terms.
We take a full 3D digital scan of your teeth using an iTero scanner. No impressions, no trays. You’ll see a simulation of how your teeth are expected to move over the course of treatment. Once you’re happy with the plan, your custom aligners are manufactured.
When treatment is complete, you’ll receive free clear retainers. Retainers keep your teeth in their new position. Wear them as directed and your results should be long-lasting. Retainers are included in your treatment package at no extra cost.
You wear each set of aligners for 2 weeks, then move on to the next. Check-ins happen every 6 to 8 weeks. At each appointment, Dr Amit reviews your progress and answers any questions. Most patients find the first couple of days with a new set mildly uncomfortable — this is normal and settles quickly.
Invisalign is suitable for a wide range of alignment issues. Cases treated at Stag Lane Dental include:
Severe misalignment or skeletal jaw issues may require orthodontic or surgical treatment instead. Dr Amit will tell you at your consultation if that applies to you.
Invisalign at Stag Lane Dental starts from £2,500. The final cost depends on the complexity of your case and the number of aligners required. Dr Amit will give you an exact quote after your 3D scan.
We offer 0% finance, so you can spread the cost over monthly payments with no interest added. We’ll go through the options at your consultation.

Yes. You take the aligners out before eating or drinking anything except cold water. There are no food restrictions. Put them back in once you’ve finished eating and brushed your teeth.
Most won’t. The aligners are clear and sit close to your teeth. At a normal conversation distance, they’re difficult to spot. Some patients notice a slight lisp in the first week, which usually disappears as you adjust.
There’s usually some pressure for a day or two when you move to a new set of aligners. This means your teeth are moving. It’s mild and settles quickly for most patients. Over-the-counter pain relief helps if needed.
Contact the practice. We can order a replacement aligner. In the meantime, wearing your previous set helps maintain progress. This is why we recommend keeping the prior set until you’re confident the new one fits well.
Yes, in most cases. Teeth can shift back over time after fixed braces. Invisalign is a common option for adults who had orthodontic treatment in their teens and have seen some relapse. Dr Amit will confirm suitability at your consultation.
Rinse them under cold water and brush gently with a soft toothbrush. Don’t use hot water — it can warp the plastic. Avoid toothpaste with abrasives. Invisalign also sells cleaning crystals if you want a deeper clean.
Invisalign is the most widely used clear aligner system and has the most clinical data behind it. The aligners are manufactured by Align Technology using proprietary SmartTrack material. Other brands exist at lower price points. If you’re comparing options, Dr Amit can discuss the differences honestly.
Once your teeth have reached their target position, we provide free clear retainers. You’ll typically wear these at night long-term. This keeps the results in place. Without retainers, teeth can gradually drift back — this applies to any orthodontic treatment, not just Invisalign.
