A Modern Approach to Straightening Teeth

Braces and clear aligners are both effective orthodontic options. Aligners are removable and less noticeable; braces may be recommended for some tooth movements. We’ll recommend an option based on your clinical needs.

Invisalign clear aligners in Joondalup provide a discreet teeth-straightening option. These custom-made, removable aligners are intended to be less noticeable than braces. Our dentists assess suitability and design personalised plans tailored to an individual’s dental needs and circumstances.

Why Choose Crown Holistic Dental for Cosmetic Dentistry

Your smile is part of how you express yourself every day. Here’s why patients trust us to enhance their beauty while respecting comfort, individuality, and overall well-being.

Personalised Care for Individual Smiles

Cosmetic dentistry is approached with each person’s unique features in mind. We discuss goals, consider natural appearance, and explain how different treatments may align with oral health needs. Treatments are planned accurately, with results varying between patients depending on their circumstances.

Our approaches are designed to conserve tooth structure where possible, while addressing appearance. Each step of treatment is explained, and patients are encouraged to ask questions. This supports informed participation in care and provides clarity about both the potential benefits and the limitations of cosmetic treatment.

Before recommending cosmetic options, we assess bite, gums, and teeth so that oral health is prioritised. Only treatments suited to the patient’s needs are discussed, with both functional and aesthetic factors considered.

We provide treatment in a professional and welcoming environment, with emphasis on clear communication and patient involvement. Patients are encouraged to discuss goals openly, and we outline available options without pressure. This approach helps support patients in considering cosmetic dentistry responsibly as part of their overall dental care.

Ideal Candidates for Clear Aligner Treatment

  • Individuals with mild to moderate crowding, spacing, or minor bite issues seeking a discreet teeth-straightening option.
  • Individuals must be willing to wear aligners as instructed, maintain oral hygiene, and attend review appointments.
  • Healthy teeth and gums; any decay or gum disease is treated before commencement.
  • If you prefer a removable and less noticeable orthodontic option, consider clear aligners like Invisalign®, although some cases may be better suited for braces or other treatments.

How Invisalign Can Help Your Daily Life

  • Invisalign® is a discreet teeth-straightening option, designed to be less noticeable than traditional braces during interactions.
  • Aligners can be taken off for eating, so typical hard/sticky-food restrictions of oral appliances may not apply; prescribed wear time still applies.
  • Removing aligners for brushing and flossing may make oral hygiene routines more straightforward than with fixed appliances.
  • Invisalign clear aligners in Joondalup are custom-made to facilitate gradual tooth movement, with suitability assessed by a professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

Considering Invisalign in Joondalup? Explore our FAQs for clear, helpful answers to support your decisions about care options and care.

How much does Invisalign typically cost?

At Crown Holistic Dental, clear aligner procedure (including Invisalign®) start at $3,300 for simple cases. You’ll receive a personalised plan following a detailed Invisalign consultation in Joondalup, where your dentist assesses your suitability and outlines recommended care options.

  • The complexity of the case and the duration of procedures are related, as more complex movements typically necessitate a greater number of aligners and reviews.
  • Number of aligners and refinements required.
  • Inclusions/exclusions with your package (e.g., scans/records, review visits, retainers). We will clearly state these in your quote.
  • Additional dental care (e.g., treating decay/gum disease) if needed before starting aligners.

Private health funds

Some private health insurance policies include orthodontic benefits that may help cover the cost of a clear-aligner procedure. Benefits, waiting periods, annual/lifetime limits and item or sub-limits vary by fund and product tier.

Not in every case. Clear aligners (including Invisalign®) may help with mild to moderate crowding/spacing or selected bite concerns, but clinical suitability, procedure time and outcomes vary between individuals. Your dentist will assess oral health, the type and size of planned tooth movements, jaw/bite considerations, and practical factors (e.g., ability to wear aligners as directed—often 20–22 hours/day). Any active decay or gum disease is treated before starting aligners.

Key considerations your dentist will assess

  • Severity/complexity:
    Some complex movements or significant jaw discrepancies are better suited to braces or other orthodontic options.
  • Movement planning:
    Clear aligners are used for gradual, controlled movements; plans are tailored, and results vary.
  • Adherence:
    Consistent wear is essential to support the intended movement; instructions are provided during the consultation.
  • Oral health & age:
    Healthy teeth and gums are required; some growing patients may need different approaches.
  • Important:
    Advertising must be honest, balanced, and realistic; we avoid guarantees, and we discuss benefits, limitations, risks, and alternatives during your consultation.

Invisalign for adults and teens has a procedure time that varies for each person, depending on individual needs. Some people begin to see changes in as little as 6 months, but the total duration depends on case complexity and consistent wear. Your dentist will assess your suitability and provide a personalised estimate after the exam. Daily wear is essential—aligners are typically worn for most of the day, removed only for meals and cleaning (your dentist will provide exact instructions).

Factors that influence duration (examples):

  • Case complexity & goals: More complex tooth movements often require longer procedure times.
  • Daily wear & change schedule: Following your prescribed wear time and switching trays as directed supports steady progress.
  • Refinements/adjustments: Additional aligners may be required to fine-tune movements.
  • Oral health & preparation: Any active decay or gum disease is treated before starting aligners.

You should take off your aligners before drinking coffee, tea, or any beverage other than plain water. Hot drinks can alter their shape, while coloured beverages may stain plastic. Our team offers clear aligners in Joondalup and provides personalised guidance on how to keep them clean.

  • Take aligners out for coffee, tea, juice or soft drinks; limit sugary/acidic beverages.
  • Avoid hot liquids with aligners in; heat may distort the plastic and affect fit.
  • Only plain water is suitable while aligners are in place.

Yes, aligners are removable for short periods (e.g., photos or formal events). To keep procedure on track, wear them as directed by your dentist and reinsert them promptly. Store aligners in their case, brush or rinse them before reinserting, and avoid frequent removals, as this may extend the procedure duration. Individual advice will be provided at your consultation.

  • Only take off your aligners for a short time and reinsert them as soon as possible.
  • Always carry your aligner case to store your aligners properly and avoid damage.
  • Brush your teeth before putting your aligners back in to prevent trapping food or bacteria.

Try to avoid removing your aligners too often, as the process can slow down your procedure or prolong the time.

Where possible, brush before reinserting aligners to support oral hygiene. Brush when you can, but if brushing isn’t possible, rinse well with water. Carry a case to protect aligners and follow your dentist’s cleaning instructions. Your dentist will tailor guidance to your needs.

To keep your teeth and aligners clean during the procedure, here are a few helpful habits:

  • Try to brush your teeth after eating or drinking anything besides water to reduce plaque buildup.
  • If you can’t brush right away, rinse your mouth thoroughly with water until you can brush.
  • Carry a travel toothbrush with you to make brushing easier when you’re out.
  • Clean your aligners separately by rinsing them with water and using a light cleaning method recommended by your dentist.

It’s common to notice temporary pressure or tightness with a new set of aligners; such discomfort often settles after a few days. Some people experience minor speech changes, additional saliva at first, and awkwardness inserting/removing aligners until they get used to it.

You’ll likely adjust eating and oral-hygiene routines around wear. If edges rub, dental wax or a minor adjustment by your dentist may help. Experiences and timeframes vary; your dentist will provide individual guidance.

Invisalign® may be an option if your teeth are crowded or spaced too far apart. If teeth overlap or there are noticeable gaps, clear aligners in Joondalup can help guide them towards improved alignment over time. The effectiveness of the procedure depends on case complexity and how closely instructions are followed.

As part of our holistic orthodontic care, your dentist will assess your bite, tooth position, and oral health to determine if Invisalign is suitable for your needs. In some cases, another orthodontic approach may be recommended based on your individual goals and circumstances.

During the early stages, it’s common to experience temporary pressure or mild discomfort with a new set of aligners; this typically subsides after a few days. Take off the aligners for coloured/sugary drinks to avoid staining, and avoid hot drinks with aligners in, as heat may distort trays. Clean aligners as advised. The suitability, experience, and timeframes for the procedure vary; therefore, your dentist will provide personalised guidance.

Provide neutral differences to help patients discuss options with a dentist. Individual experiences vary; your clinician will advise what’s appropriate for you.

Yes, there are some important care recommendations to follow during the Invisalign procedure. This helps reduce staining and keeps sugars/acids from being trapped against teeth. Avoid hot drinks while wearing aligners, as heat can cause the trays to distort. Brush (or at least rinse) before reinserting and storing aligners in their cases during meals.

Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Remove aligners when eating food and drinking coloured or sugary drinks to avoid staining and plaque buildup.
  • Eating with aligners may damage the trays and affect their fit—remove them before meals.
  • Where possible, brush before reinserting; otherwise, rinse and brush when you can.
  • Keep a case with you to store aligners safely.

Your dentist will advise you when to switch to the next set, based on your plan and progress, but this may vary. Following your wear schedule and change instructions supports planned tooth movement; changing too early or skipping sets may affect progress.

  • Your dentist sets the change intervals and may be ~7–14 days.
  • Progress is monitored, and the timings are adjusted if necessary.
  • Wear as directed (typically most of the day, removing for meals/cleaning).

You can sleep and shower with aligners in place. Wear them as directed by your dentist to maintain your daily wear schedule. Avoid hot water while showering with aligners in, as heat may distort trays. Keep your case nearby if you remove them during routines.

  • Wearing your aligners while sleeping is essential for maintaining your daily wear time.
  • Showering while wearing your aligners is appropriate, but avoid hot water.
  • Consistent wear—even overnight—supports your care plan.
  • Keep your aligner case nearby in case you take them off during your routine.

If aligners are worn for longer than directed, teeth may drift, and trays may feel tighter upon reinsertion. If this happens, contact your dentist before changing to the next set; they may advise additional wear time or other steps.

If you take off your aligners for too long, your teeth may begin to shift slightly, which can affect how your aligners fit. If your aligners feel unusually tight when you reinsert them, it may indicate some movement. In that case, contact your dentist before changing to your next set.
