Clear aligner treatment led personally by Dr Natasja Kashyap, Platinum Invisalign Provider, across two practices in Wilmslow and Northwich. Free smile assessment available today.
Most people who land on this page already know they want straighter teeth. What they are not always sure about is whether Invisalign is the right way to get there, how it actually works day to day, and whether their case is suitable.
Here is the short version.
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear plastic aligners to move your teeth gradually into the correct position. Each aligner is slightly different to the last, applying gentle, controlled pressure to specific teeth at each stage of treatment. You wear each one for one to two weeks before progressing to the next, and by the end of the series your teeth are where they need to be.
Treatment is planned entirely in advance using 3D digital scanning technology. Before you wear your first aligner, Dr Natasja will have already mapped out every tooth movement required from your current position to your final result.You can see a digital preview of the expected outcome before treatment begins, which means you know exactly what you are working towards before you commit to anything.
It is one of the most popular treatments we offer at both our Wilmslow and Northwich practices, and the before-and-afters never get old.
Posted on Google Jed HoldsworthTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had clear aligners and veneers to my front teeth through Croft Dental to resolve gaps in my teeth, and can honestly say the service was impeccable. From the reception staff to Demitris and Sally who took me through every steps of my treatment the experience was amazing. And the results are just fantastic. No more gaps and fantastic natural looking teeth. I honestly couldn't be happier with either the experience or the results. Thank you so much Croft Dental.Posted on Google Yiu PhyllisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional advice, detailed check up, really appreciate it ❤️❤️Posted on Google Melissa WildeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed treatment for a dental implant for a front tooth, including extraction of the old tooth and a temporary denture before implant fitting. As a nervous patient I could not recommend Dr Nikhil and his team more highly. My treatment was explained to me at every step and Katie and the team were always on hand to answer questions and provide reassurance. I'm thrilled with my new tooth which has restored my smile and looks so natural. Thank you all.Posted on Google L PetersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had some terrible pain in my mouth from a disaster some years ago. So I plucked up the courage to have something done about it. I chose the Croft because it had been suggested as the right place to go by a dentist friend. I needed crowns on 3 teeth. I needn’t have worried. I explained what I wanted and Dimitris took me through the process. He calmed me down completely. The treatment was calm and went at the pace I needed. The crowns look like real teeth. Just perfectly done. Thank you Dimitris and Sally for being so kind and gentle. If you are thinking of having work done on your teeth and want a good result then head to the Croft.Posted on Google Yana RusnakTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got aligners with Dr. Nikita. I had a problem from before — after about 10 years since I last wore braces, my teeth became a little crooked again. I also had an old retainer and there was dental stone under it. Dr. Nikita carried out a professional teeth cleaning for me, removed the old retainer, and put aligners for me. I wore them for about six months. Now my teeth are very straight and look really nice. Thank you so much to Dr. Nikita for his professionalism. The clinic also looks very beautiful, they have free parking, and the staff is very friendly. Thank you very much! 😊Posted on Google Simon CharnockTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been a patient at The Croft dental practice for some time now and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. All the staff are welcoming ,friendly and professional. Both Nikhil and Dimitris take the time to explain every step, answering questions with patience and care . The practice itself is modern , spotless and well organised and I would recommend to anyone looking for excellent dental care . Thankyou to the entire team .Posted on Google David HollickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish (nearly) couldn't speak highly enough of everyone at this practice.. Friendly, efficient and really nice people. Thoroughly recommendedPosted on Google Sheila PopeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My first visit to The Croft was August last year with toothache I am happy to say my implants are now complete and to thank all the team for their professionalism and kindness. I am very happy to recommend this practice.Posted on Google Mar OsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a filling done by Dr Nikita, and the experience was excellent. He was reassuring, thorough, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the treatment. The whole team was welcoming, and I left feeling very happy with the result.
Most patients who come to us for Invisalign have been considering it for a while. Here is what tends to be holding them back.
If any of those sounds familiar, a free smile assessment with Dr Natasja is the right place to start.
Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible when worn, removable for eating and cleaning, and comfortable enough that most patients forget they are wearing them within a few days.
The aligners are clear, close-fitting, and practically undetectable in normal conversation. Most patients go through their entire treatment without colleagues or friends noticing.
Remove the aligners to eat, drink, and clean your teeth. No food restrictions, no complicated cleaning routine, no Friday night plans disrupted.
Before your aligners are manufactured, Dr Natasja reviews your digital ClinCheck simulation with you, showing you the projected movement of your teeth from start to finish. You know what you are working towards before treatment begins.

Not enough space in the jaw for all the teeth to sit straight. Invisalign creates space and gradually moves crowded teeth into correct alignment.

Unwanted spaces between teeth, whether a single gap between the front teeth or spacing across the arch. Invisalign closes gaps in a controlled, predictable way.

When the upper front teeth overlap too far over the lower teeth. Invisalign corrects mild to moderate overbites by improving vertical alignment.

When the lower front teeth sit in front of the upper teeth. Invisalign addresses mild to moderate underbites effectively in suitable cases.

When upper and lower teeth do not meet correctly from side to side. Invisalign moves the affected teeth into correct position, preventing uneven wear over time.

When the upper and lower front teeth do not meet when the mouth is closed. Invisalign can correct mild to moderate open bites by gradually bringing the front teeth into contact.
Dr Natasja will examine your teeth, discuss your concerns and goals, and assess which Invisalign option is most appropriate for your case. If i7 is sufficient for your needs, she’ll tell you. If Full treatment is needed, she’ll explain exactly why.
If you decide to proceed, a digital intraoral scan of your teeth is taken. No messy impressions. The scan is submitted to Invisalign who plan the full sequence of tooth movements.
Before your aligners are manufactured, you review the digital simulation of your planned outcome with Dr Natasja. You see where your teeth are going before you commit to anything.
Your confirmed cost is provided in writing. There is no pressure to proceed on the day and no deadline to decide. Many patients go away, think it over, and come back when they are ready.
You’re not alone, and you’re genuinely welcome here
Dental anxiety is more common than you might think. Whether it stems from a difficult past experience, fear of pain, or simply feeling vulnerable in the chair, we understand that visiting the dentist can feel overwhelming.
Dr Natasja is well known for making nervous patients feel completely at ease, it’s one of the things patients mention most often in their reviews. She works at your pace, explains everything before doing it, and never makes you feel rushed or judged.
The treatment you’ve been putting off doesn’t have to wait until you’ve saved every penny. We work with Tabeo to offer flexible monthly payment plans across most treatments at Heritage Smile Group, so you can get started when you’re ready.
Here’s what’s available:

Reflecting the volume and breadth of cases our clinicians have treated, not just a course completion.

Some patients expect Full and need Lite. Others expect Lite and need Full. We will always tell you the truth and explain why.

Wilmslow for east Cheshire and south Manchester. Northwich for central and south Cheshire.

For patients who also want cosmetic treatment, Invisalign at Heritage Smile Group is frequently designed as the first stage of a combined plan including bonding or veneers.
It depends on the case. Invisalign i7 for very minor corrections takes as little as 3 months. Invisalign Lite for minor to moderate cases typically takes around 6.5 months. Invisalign Full for more comprehensive cases usually takes between 12 and 24 months. We will give you a realistic timeline at your free smile assessment following clinical examination.
Invisalign is not painful in the way that fixed braces can be. Some patients notice mild pressure or tenderness for a day or two when progressing to a new aligner, which is a normal sign that the teeth are moving. This settles quickly and most patients describe the overall experience as very comfortable.
Yes. The aligners are removed for eating and drinking anything other than plain water, so there are no food restrictions. Remove the aligners, eat normally, brush your teeth, and reinsert. The aligners need to be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day, so they go back in as soon as possible after eating.
Some patients notice a very slight awareness of the aligners when speaking in the first few days of a new set. This resolves quickly as the mouth adapts and most patients find it disappears entirely within a day or two.
Yes, always. Without retainers, teeth have a natural tendency to drift back towards their original positions. Vivera retainers, made by Invisalign and at least 30% more durable than standard clear retainers, are available at Heritage Smile Group for £400 for a full set across both arches. Retainer wear is essential to protect your result long term.
Yes. Your initial smile assessment with Dr Natasja is completely free and carries no obligation. The ClinCheck digital planning stage, which confirms your exact treatment plan and cost, is priced at £325 and is applied against your treatment fee when you proceed.
