Could Invisalign straighten your teeth?
Answer a few quick questions to find out whether clear aligners could be right for you, then book a free consultation with Dr Ritcha Gobin in Windsor, who has over 20 years in dentistry and has provided Invisalign since 2018.
Are you looking to straighten your teeth?
Takes under 2 minutes. No obligation. Only a dentist can confirm suitability in person.
Sound familiar?
Smiling with your mouth closed in photos?
Most adults who ask us about aligners have thought about it for years. Two worries usually hold them back.
"I do not want metal braces at my age"
Clear aligners are thin, transparent and removable, so most people will not notice you are wearing them.
"It will take over my life"
You take them out to eat and to clean your teeth, and Dr Gobin reviews your progress every two weeks, so you are never left guessing.
What is Invisalign?
Clear aligners, planned digitally around your teeth.
Invisalign is a series of thin, clear, removable aligners made for your teeth. Each set moves your teeth a small step, following a plan Dr Gobin builds from a digital iTero scan, and you see a simulation of the result before you start.
Nearly invisible
Thin, clear aligners most people will not notice, at work or in photos.
Removable
Take them out to eat, drink and brush as normal.
See your smile first
A digital simulation shows your new smile before you start.
Who it is for
Who Invisalign is for
Clear aligners can straighten all of these, and most people have a mix.
Crowded or overlapping
Teeth that overlap or twist, often worse at the front.
Gaps between teeth
Spaces that have opened up, or always been there.
Sticking out a little
Front teeth that sit forward of the rest.
Worth checking first
- Gum disease or a loose tooth, which a dentist treats before any straightening
- Under 16, when a dentist first checks which adult teeth are ready
- Veneers, crowns or implants, which can change the plan
This is a guide, not a diagnosis. Only a dentist can confirm suitability after examining your teeth and gums in person.

Excellent experience with Invisalign treatment. Dr Gobin was knowledgeable, attentive, and ensured each step was clearly explained. Results exceeded expectations. Highly recommend.
Invisalign patient
Just finished my Invisalign journey with Ritcha and I am absolutely over the moon! Ritcha was so lovely and personable and the staff are amazing. If you are thinking of Invisalign yourself I would highly recommend Ritcha and the team.
Invisalign patient
I had a large gap between my two front upper teeth and now have the perfect smile. She is very personable, has an impeccable manner and nothing is too much trouble for her.
Patient
She explains everything to you and makes you feel relaxed, which is very important if you feel nervous attending the dentist. I would recommend her.

Questions
Your questions, answered.
It varies case by case, because it depends on your teeth and what you would like to change. That is why, if the quiz shows Invisalign could be right for you, we invite you to a free consultation with Dr Gobin, where you get a personalised plan and the cost for your case before you decide anything.
Yes. The 45 minute Invisalign consultation is complimentary, including the iTero scan and the simulation of your new smile. A £25 deposit secures your appointment when you book. There is no obligation to go ahead.
Most people feel some pressure for a day or two when they start a new set of aligners. It is a sign your teeth are moving, and it usually settles quickly.
Aligners are thin and transparent, so most people will not notice them in everyday conversation.
Treatment at Opaline typically takes around six months. Simpler cases can be quicker and more complex movement takes longer; your plan shows the expected timeline before you commit.
There is no upper age limit. What matters is the health of your teeth and gums, which Dr Gobin checks at your consultation.
Reviews every two weeks throughout, Boutique teeth whitening and night-time retainers to keep your result.
Dr Gobin will tell you honestly at your consultation and explain the alternatives. There is never any pressure to decide on the day.
