Invisalign and Clear Aligners
How aligner treatment works
We take a digital scan of your teeth and plan the movement from start to finish before a single aligner is made. You then wear each set for a week or two, taking them out to eat and to clean your teeth, and each set moves things slightly further.
Because the aligners are clear and removable, most people around you will not notice them, and there are no brackets to catch food or break before a weekend.
Currently we offer free, no-obligation aligner consultations. We assess your oral health, answer your questions including the pricing, and if treatment is right for you we send your records off. Your aligners are typically ready around six weeks later.
What affects your price
Invisalign at Radiant Smiles starts from $3,999 for a Level 1 treatment plan. Where your own quote lands comes down to four things:
- How far your teeth need to move: mild crowding or spacing costs less to correct than a complex bite problem
- How many aligners your plan requires, which follows directly from the amount of movement
- Whether you need any preparatory work, such as a clean, fillings or an extraction, before treatment starts
- Which retainers you choose at the end, because holding the result is part of the treatment, not an optional extra

Common questions
How much does Invisalign cost in Western Australia?
The cost varies with the treatment plan, and generally ranges from $3,999 to around $5,000. Treatment at our Yokine clinic starts from $3,999 for a Level 1 plan.
Does Invisalign hurt?
You feel pressure and some tenderness for a day or two each time you change to a new aligner, which is the teeth moving. It is milder than the tightening appointments that come with fixed braces.
How long does Invisalign take?
Simple cases can be finished in around six months. Most run twelve to eighteen months. The single biggest factor is how many hours a day you actually wear them: twenty to twenty-two is the target.
Can I get Invisalign if I need other dental work?
Usually yes, but the order matters. Decay, gum disease and failing restorations are dealt with first, because teeth will not move predictably in an unhealthy mouth.
