Family Friendly & Specialty Dentists in London, UK
Invisalign Lite is a limited Invisalign course for mild to moderate crowding and spacing, using a smaller series of removable clear aligners than a full course.
Dr Kia Papagalani, specialist orthodontist (GDC No. 228487), assesses each case to confirm whether this course is enough for the movement needed.
Not every case needs a full course. Mild crowding, small gaps, or teeth that have shifted since earlier treatment can often be corrected with a limited series of aligners as part of our orthodontics in London. Because the aligners are removable, they irritate the cheeks and lips less than fixed braces. Dr Papagalani confirms at your consultation whether Invisalign Lite covers the movement your teeth need.
The main risk with a limited course is choosing it for a case that needs more. We plan diagnosis first: the specialist orthodontist assesses your anatomy and only recommends Lite where it can finish the job, so you do not pay for a course that cannot achieve your goal.
Fees are itemised at the consultation, so you know what is included before you commit.
For growing mouths, Invisalign Teen is the better fit. Once movement is complete, orthodontic retainers keep the teeth in place.
Leave your number and we will call you back. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Adults and teenagers who need a modest correction and want to avoid visible wires. For younger children, Invisalign First is the starting point. Fees are set out on our orthodontics costs in London page. If dental visits make you anxious, tell us when you book and we take the appointment at your pace.
We scan your teeth and confirm the case suits a limited course. If the movement is more complex, we may suggest fixed metal braces instead.
Your clear aligners are made to the digital plan. Each set fits your teeth and applies steady pressure without brackets.
You wear each set for the prescribed period before switching to the next. We check at review visits that the teeth are tracking to the plan.
We review progress at regular intervals and adjust the sequence if any tooth lags behind the plan.
We fit a retainer to hold the new positions. Our orthodontic aftercare guide covers wear and cleaning.
We plan with 3D imaging, which lets us show you a preview of the planned movement before you begin. Your care is led by Dr Papagalani, specialist orthodontist.
Invisalign Lite sits between Invisalign Express (minor corrections and slight relapse) and Invisalign Full (unrestricted courses). Invisalign Teen and Invisalign First cover younger patients.
A limited course of clear aligners for mild to moderate crowding or spacing. For more complex cases we provide Invisalign Full.
