Invisible Braces

Using cutting edge 3D computer graphic imaging and CAD/CAM technology, Invisalign® pruduces series of custom-made, removable and transparent overlays called “aligners” to straighten teeth. These aligners are worn 22 hours per day. Each aligner is worn for 2 weeks prior to being replaced by the next aligner in the series. The teeth will move from initial to final position incrementally. Invisalign is an attractive alternative to traditional “wire-and-bracket” braces. As the aligners are transparent and difficult to detect when worn, even esthetically conscious adults can get dazzling smiles without the embarrassment of metal braces.

The aligners are comfortable to wear and can be easily removed for eating, drinking, brushing and flossing, thus maintaining meticulous oral hygiene.

Please consult your orthodontist for Invisalign treatment. The duration of treatment depends on the complexity of your malocclusion, The cost of Invisalign treatment is generally comparable or higher than traditional braces.

Advantages of Invisalign®

Invisible Appearance:The trays of Invisalign® are transparent and nearly invisible. This means you can maintain a natural and attractive appearance while undergoing orthodontic treatment, without the embarrassment associated with traditional metal braces.

Comfort:The Invisalign® aligners are custom-made to fit the shape of your teeth and your specific needs, making them very comfortable. In contrast, traditional metal braces can cause mouth sores and discomfort.

Easy to Remove:The Invisalign® aligners can be easily removed and reinserted, allowing for greater convenience when eating and cleaning your teeth. You can temporarily take out the trays and enjoy your meals without any restrictions.

Efficient and Fast:Compared to traditional braces, the Invisalign® treatment process is usually quicker. Of course, the exact duration of treatment depends on your individual situation and treatment plan, but Invisalign typically achieves your ideal tooth alignment in a shorter time.

Using Invisalign® – Important Considerations

Despite the many advantages of Invisalign®, there are some important considerations to follow before using the aligners:

  1. Regular Wear of Trays: To achieve the best orthodontic results, you need to wear the trays as recommended by your dentist. This includes wearing the trays at night while you sleep and immediately upon waking, as well as keeping them in for at least 20-22 hours during the day.

  2. Maintain Oral Hygiene: Although the trays are removable, you should thoroughly clean your teeth and the trays after each meal to prevent bacterial growth and oral health issues.

  3. Follow Your Dentist’s Advice: Everyone’s dental situation is different, so before using Invisalign®, consult with a professional orthodontist and follow their advice and guidance. They will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and dental condition.
