Invisalign for clear results
Dr Gustavo Vivaldi is a Diamond Invisalign provider in Sydney and will use the latest in 3D technology to curate a nearly imperceptible orthodontic treatment to address your orthodontic needs and give you the smile you’ve always dreamed of.
Clear aligners are a discreet option that many adults find comfortable to wear. Clear Aligners are made from clear and smooth medical grade thermoplastic (BPA-free) and fit over your teeth to produce gentle and controlled forces to achieve the desired tooth movement. During your treatment you will use a series of aligner sets and each set is worn for 7-14 days; depending on the tooth movement designed to meet your specific orthodontic correction needs.
What are the benefits of Invisalign over traditional appliances?
Removable – The treatment is so easy to get used to and incorporate into your dayto-day routine. You can take out your Invisalign to drink, eat, play sports, play instruments, brush, floss and eventually to attend to social events.
Discreet and comfortable treatment – The clear aligners are practically imperceptible to peers and won’t show in any pictures. You can always show off your smile!
Suitable for all cases – Invisalign® treatment is extremely effective to treat virtually all orthodontic problems.
Efficient results – Dr Vivaldi plans each treatment individually, and treatment time depends on how far the teeth need to move.

Are discreet braces suitable for adults?
We offer metal, ceramic and LightForce 3D-printed braces, and Dr Vivaldi uses 3D digital planning for every treatment. You can choose from traditional metal braces or tooth-coloured ceramic braces, which is a discreet version of braces.
Every option is explained on our orthodontic treatment in Sydney CBD page, and Dr Vivaldi will tell you plainly which suits your case.

Additional Orthodontic techniques
Sometimes your smile needs extra attention and care. Dr Vivaldi will discuss and curate the best option for your specific needs.
Where it helps, Vivaldi Smile Artisans can combine your Invisalign or braces treatment with cosmetic treatment by Dr Patricia Vivaldi. Some patients might also require Orthognathic Surgery to correct the position of the jaws.
In other cases, we can use temporary anchorage devices (TADs), which are small implants that give us extra anchorage to speed up your treatment.

Am I too old for orthodontic treatment?
There is no such thing as too old. You can have the smile you’ve always wanted no matter what your age. Dr Gustavo Vivaldi can curate an efficient and effective treatment just for your needs.
At Vivaldi Smile Artisans, we can also combine orthodontics with Dr Patricia Vivaldi’s cosmetic dentistry, planning both phases together.
Is Orthodontic Treatment just to improve my smile?
Although you will end up with a fabulous smile, this is not the only benefit that you will gain by your Vivaldi Smile Artisans orthodontic treatment. There are a myriad of dental conditions that can be caused by crooked teeth or by a poor occlusion (bite). By straightening your teeth and correcting your bite, we are also making sure we are improving or preventing damaging dental conditions including:
- Gum disease
- Bone loss
- Gingival (gum) recession
- Tooth decay
- Uneven wear of tooth structure
- Pain in the jaw or joint (TMJ)

Is Invisalign as efficient as traditional braces for adults?
Yes! Both options can be effective; the right choice depends on your case and lifestyle. With 24+ years of Orthodontic Experience, Dr Vivaldi plans treatment with traditional braces and Invisalign clear aligners, and recommends the option that suits your case. However, if you are a compliant patient the treatment with Invisalign might be faster, more efficient, and more comfortable than treatment with traditional braces.
Remote Monitoring
Treatment is designed to fit a busy schedule: DentalMonitoring is included with every case, so routine progress checks happen from your phone and in-practice visits are reserved for when they are genuinely needed.
Affordable adult orthodontics
Adult treatment at Vivaldi Smile Artisans is $4,000 to $11,000 for Invisalign or Angel Aligners and $4,500 to $11,000 for braces, including LightForce 3D-printed braces, all-inclusive. Many adults correcting drift since an earlier round of treatment sit toward the lower end of those ranges, because the movement required is smaller. Interest-free plans start from $70 per week, and adults can begin with a free 30-minute smile assessment. Our Invisalign cost in Sydney guide explains what moves the price within that range, and our adult braces cost guide covers the factors specific to adult cases.Adult Orthodontics: Frequently Asked Questions
No. Teeth can be moved at any age, and many of our patients are adults. What matters is the health of your teeth and gums rather than your age, which is assessed at your consultation.
Invisalign and clear aligners are removable and discreet, and tooth-coloured ceramic braces are a less visible fixed option. Dr Vivaldi will recommend what suits your case, your bite and your routine.
Invisalign is $4,000 to $11,000 and braces $4,500 to $11,000, both all-inclusive, covering your appointments and your retainers, with interest-free plans from $70 per week. Your exact quote follows your consultation.
Fewer than you might expect. Progress is monitored through regular DentalMonitoring phone scans reviewed by Dr Vivaldi, and when everything is tracking well, visits can often be spaced further apart. Patients who live or work far from the CBD are often seen in person only when needed.
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons adults come to see us. Teeth drift over the years, particularly without long-term retention, and treatment is often shorter than the original one. Retention afterwards is what protects the result.
