Invisalign at Brisbane Smile Boutique: From Simple Alignments to Complex Smile Transformations
Invisalign has transformed the way orthodontic treatment is delivered, offering a discreet, comfortable, and highly customised alternative to traditional braces. At Brisbane Smile Boutique, we provide Invisalign solutions across a range of treatment tiers — from minor cosmetic adjustments to advanced, complex orthodontic cases — all guided by experienced clinicians and personalised care.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gradually move teeth into their ideal positions. Each aligner is worn for approximately 1–2 weeks before progressing to the next, gently guiding the teeth over time.
Invisalign is popular because it is:
Virtually invisible
Removable for eating and cleaning
Comfortable and smooth compared to brackets and wires
Digitally planned for precision and predictability
With advances in Invisalign technology, aligners can now treat a wide range of orthodontic concerns — not just mild crowding.
Invisalign Treatment Tiers at Brisbane Smile Boutique
We offer tiered Invisalign treatment options to ensure every patient receives care that matches the complexity of their case. Each tier reflects the expected treatment time, level of planning, and clinical involvement required.
Express / Minor Invisalign Treatment
This tier is ideal for patients seeking small cosmetic improvements, such as:
Minor crowding or spacing
Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
Small alignment adjustments
Treatment time is typically shorter, with fewer aligners required.
Moderate Invisalign Treatment
Designed for patients with more noticeable alignment or bite concerns, this tier may address:
Moderate crowding or spacing
Mild bite discrepancies
Rotations or alignment issues affecting multiple teeth
Treatment usually spans several months and may include attachments or limited refinements.
Comprehensive Invisalign Treatment
This tier is suitable for patients with more advanced orthodontic needs, where treatment time is longer and planning is more detailed. It often includes:
Significant alignment changes
Bite correction
Multiple refinements to achieve optimal results
Complex Invisalign Treatment (12+ Months)
Our most advanced Invisalign tier is designed for complex orthodontic cases that require extended treatment time and a high level of clinical expertise.
These cases may involve:
Severe open bites
Crossbites
Severe crowding or spacing
Significant malocclusion
Dental compensation
Relapse from previous orthodontic treatment
Complex Invisalign treatment often requires elastics, attachments, multiple phases of aligners, and ongoing refinements over 12 months or longer. Careful monitoring and adjustments are essential to achieve a result that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also functional and stable long-term.
This level of care is reflected in our $8,000 Complex Invisalign Treatment Tier, which accounts for the time, precision, and advanced planning required.
Invisalign vs Braces: Which Is Right for You?
Many patients wonder whether braces are still the better option for more difficult cases. While traditional braces remain effective, Invisalign has evolved significantly.
Invisalign may be ideal if you value:
Discretion and confidence during treatment
Removability for eating and oral hygiene
Digital treatment planning
A modern, flexible approach to orthodontics
Braces may be recommended in select situations, particularly where compliance is a concern or in very specific biomechanical cases. At Brisbane Smile Boutique, we assess every smile individually and recommend the option that will deliver the best long-term outcome — not a one-size-fits-all solution.
Experience Matters in Invisalign Treatment
The success of Invisalign, particularly in complex cases, depends heavily on the experience of the treating team. Our clinicians are skilled in advanced Invisalign planning and regularly manage cases that require longer treatment times, elastics, and multi-phase approaches.
We don’t just straighten teeth — we focus on:
Bite function
Facial balance
Long-term stability
Patient comfort and confidence
Your Smile, Your Treatment Plan
Whether you’re considering Invisalign for a minor touch-up or have been told your case is too complex, our team is here to help. With tailored Invisalign treatment tiers and expert care, we ensure every patient receives the right level of treatment for their unique smile.
