The Invisalign Product Range
Invisalign Comprehensive is the flagship package for anything beyond mild: it covers complex movement and bundles the refinement trays needed to land the final position.
Invisalign Lite is the shorter, lower-cost option for mild crowding or spacing, capped at a set tray count and without the open-ended refinements of Comprehensive.
Invisalign Go is aimed at general dental practices for mild anterior cases only, using a streamlined plan and shorter series. Anything beyond simple belongs with a specialist on Comprehensive.
Invisalign Teen adds compliance-indicator dots that fade with wear, free replacement trays for lost aligners, and extra allowance for teeth still erupting.
The Invisalign System Explained
SmartTrack material is the proprietary plastic that sets Invisalign apart — tuned to deliver steady, controlled force and to seat more accurately than standard aligner materials.
ClinCheck software turns the scan into a staged animation of your tooth movement, which the treating clinician adjusts and signs off before the aligners are produced.
iTero scanning is the digital scanner that captures your teeth in minutes without messy putty. The scan drives the plan and is reused at progress visits; it's standard at most Ferndale Invisalign practices.
Attachments are the small bonded bumps that let aligners grip and control harder movements. They're tooth-coloured, removed at the end, and used in the majority of cases.
