Overall, Invisalign offers a more convenient, comfortable, and discreet option for teeth straightening compared to traditional braces. However, it's important to consult with an experienced dentist and Invisalign provider to determine which treatment option is best for your specific case.

A DISCREET WAY TO STRAIGHTEN TEETH
Invisalign
Invisalign is a clear-aligner treatment company, an orthodontic system that involves transparent, plastic dental braces. It treats common dental issues such as gapping, crowding, or having a misaligned bite - shifting teeth gradually.
The Invisalign treatment program involves wearing a different aligner as you progress through the stages of the treatment. At each stage, your aligner moves solely the necessary teeth using the biomechanics of a gentle “Smartforce” patented by Invisalign. The results will give you a novel smile.
How Does Invisalign Work?
How Does Invisalign Work?
Invisalign aligners are custom-made for each patient using 3D imaging technology. The aligners are made of a clear, smooth plastic material that fits snugly over your teeth. You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, and they gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. The length of treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case, but most people wear the aligners for 12 to 18 months.
One of the biggest benefits of Invisalign is that the aligners are nearly invisible, so most people won't even notice that you are wearing them. Additionally, the aligners are removable, so you can take them out when eating, brushing, and flossing. This means you can still eat your favourite foods and maintain good oral hygiene while undergoing treatment.
How Does Invisalign's Technology Work?
CAD-CAM digital dentistry technology is used where the Invisalign clinical software system is paired with a unique intraoral scanner, creating a 3D blueprint of your mouth. This is a long way from using the older methods of clay teeth models.
You could also visit invisalign.com or download the Invisalign SmileView app here, to view a simulation of how your smile could look like after undergoing the Invisalign treatment. Watch your smile transform right in front of your very eyes - into its proposed final result - before you even start on the treatment!
Benefits of Invisalign
Sleek, discrete appearance while straightening your teeth
Invisalign aligners are made of clear, smooth plastic that is virtually invisible, making them a more discreet option for teeth straightening compared to traditional braces.
Comfortable experience throughout the day while wearing
Invisalign aligners are made of smooth, comfortable plastic that won't irritate your mouth or gums like the brackets and wires of traditional braces can.
Convenience of easily removing before eating
Invisalign aligners are removable, which means you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss. This makes it easier to maintain good oral hygiene and enjoy your favourite foods without the restrictions of traditional braces. Not to mention allowing you to taste the food without having an appliance in your mouth (eg. braces).
Predictable treatment timeline with technology
Invisalign treatment is computer-guided, which means you can see a virtual representation of your teeth before and after treatment. This also means that the movements of your teeth are planned out in advance, making the treatment process more predictable and efficient.
Generally shorter treatment time compared to braces
Invisalign treatment typically takes less time than traditional braces, with most cases lasting between 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of the case.
Fewer dentist visits required for reviews
With Invisalign, you typically only need to visit your orthodontist every 6 to 8 weeks, compared to every 4 to 6 weeks with traditional braces.
Overview of Invisalign Treatment
- Your Invisalign journey begins with a simple intraoral scan to get a 3D digital blueprint of your mouth. This allows your dentist to devise a treatment plan for the gradual movement of your teeth, with input from Invisalign’s AI technology;
- Once finalised, your full series of aligners will be 3D printed;
- The aligners gradually move your teeth, so it is eventually properly positioned - incrementally straightening your teeth. Each aligner is worn for around two weeks, before progressing on to the next aligner;
- After your treatment is completed, a retainer is worn to sustain the results achieved.
