the honest answer

We used Invisalign in the past. Here is what we use now

Aligner technology has moved quickly in the last few years. After treating with several systems, including Invisalign, Dr Shaz now primarily uses Angel Aligners. Whichever system is used, the diagnosis, the plan and the monitoring are specialist work, and that is what you are really paying for.

The brand you searched

Invisalign

A well-known clear aligner brand that helped make aligner treatment popular. We treated patients with it in the past, so we know it well, and we are happy to talk through how it compares. If another provider has quoted you Invisalign, we can give you a specialist second opinion before you commit.

What we use today

Angel Aligners

The advanced aligner system our specialist primarily uses now, chosen for its comfort and the refined finish it gives her patients. Custom, near-invisible trays, planned by Dr Shaz herself, with the same all-inclusive pricing and interest-free plans as every Milk treatment.

Aligners are one tool among several. Compare your options on our clear aligners page, see braces, or view pricing.

what actually matters

The planner matters more than the brand

Specialist diagnosis

Every case starts with records, a specialist examination and a written plan, so the aligners are moving your teeth toward the right result, not just a straighter-looking front six.

A plan, not a product

Aligner brands are tools. Dr Shaz plans each tooth movement herself and chooses the system that suits your case, rather than fitting your case to a product.

Monitored to the finish

Teeth rarely follow the plan perfectly. Regular specialist reviews catch drift early and keep your treatment on track through to retainers and aftercare.

started elsewhere?

Mid-treatment with Invisalign? We can help

If you started Invisalign with another provider and things have stalled, or you simply want reassurance, we welcome transfer cases and second opinions. Bring your aligners and any records, and our specialist will give you an honest read on where things are at and how to finish well.

questions

Invisalign questions, answered honestly

Does Milk Orthodontics offer Invisalign?

We treated patients with Invisalign in the past, but we no longer use it. Today we primarily treat with Angel Aligners, with every case planned and monitored by our specialist orthodontist. If you were expecting Invisalign, book a free assessment and we will show you what we would use for your teeth and why.

What is the difference between Invisalign and other clear aligners?

Invisalign is one brand of clear aligner. Angel Aligners, Clarity and others work the same way: a series of custom, near-invisible trays that move your teeth step by step. The bigger difference between treatments is who plans and monitors them. At Milk that is always a registered specialist orthodontist.

Is Angel Aligners as good as Invisalign?

Modern aligner systems are capable tools, and results depend mostly on the diagnosis, the treatment plan and the monitoring rather than the brand. After years of treating with several systems, including Invisalign, our specialist now primarily uses Angel Aligners for the comfort and finish it gives her patients.

How much does clear aligner treatment cost in Auckland?

As a guide, simple and cosmetic treatment starts from around $7,900 and comprehensive treatment from $9,900, individually quoted after a specialist assessment. Interest-free payment plans are available, and we are a Southern Cross Affiliated Provider. See our pricing page for the full breakdown.

I started Invisalign somewhere else. Can you take over my treatment?

We welcome transfer cases and second opinions. Bring what you have, including any aligners and records, and our specialist will assess where your treatment is at and give you an honest plan for finishing well. Start with a free Smile Assessment.

Can I recycle my old Invisalign aligners?

Yes. Through our TerraCycle program we recycle used aligners so they do not go to landfill, and we are happy to take trays from any brand, including Invisalign. Just bring your old aligners in.
