About Invisalign

Invisalign

Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners used in orthodontic treatment to straighten teeth and correct various dental issues, such as misalignments, crowding, and spacing problems.
Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, as they are made from a clear, flexible plastic material.

About Invisalign

Here's how Invisalign works

Consultation

The process begins with a consultation with an orthodontist or dentist who is trained in Invisalign treatment. They will assess your dental condition and determine if Invisalign is suitable for you.

Custom Treatment Plan

If Invisalign is a good fit for your needs, a custom treatment plan is created. This plan outlines the step-by-step movement of your teeth to achieve the desired alignment.

Custom Aligners

Using advanced 3D imaging technology, a series of custom-made aligners are created for you. Each set of aligners is designed to slightly adjust the position of your teeth over time.

Wearing the Aligners

You'll wear the aligners for about 20-22 hours a day, removing them only for eating, drinking (except water), brushing, and flossing. The aligners are comfortable and can be removed for short periods, making them more convenient than traditional braces.

Regular Check-Ups

You'll have periodic check-up appointments with your orthodontist or dentist to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Changing Aligners

Approximately every one to two weeks, you will switch to a new set of aligners. Each new set gradually shifts your teeth closer to their final, desired position.

Treatment Completion

Once you've gone through all the sets of aligners in your treatment plan, your teeth should be in their corrected positions. You may still be required to wear a retainer at night to maintain the results.

Invisalign is popular because it offers a discreet way to straighten teeth without the noticeable appearance of traditional braces. It’s particularly appealing to adults and teenagers who may be self-conscious about the aesthetic aspect of braces.

However, the suitability of Invisalign depends on the individual’s dental condition, so it’s essential to consult the Déntica team to determine the best treatment option for you.
