Invisible braces / Clear Aligners or Invisalign is nothing but a simple set of aligners which are transparent and do not interfere in your daily routine.
These Clear Dental Aligners are removable, transparent & more comfortable devices made of special plastic like material which are used to straighten teeth just like braces.
These aligners use gentle and constant force to move the teeth in the desired position without going through the hassles of metal wires and brackets.
The treatment planned well with the help of software which uses principals of orthodontics to simulate step by step tooth movement.
These sequential tooth movements are incorporated in these devices to apply the specic force at the specified tooth locations to achieve the desired tooth movement.
The complete treatment involves a process of wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten your teeth.
No brackets and wires, and none of the restrictions that come with metal braces.

The clear aligner or invisible braces system uses a series of clear, removable plastic trays to gradually move your teeth into proper alignment.
Each tray is worn for a specified period of time, typically two weeks, before being replaced with the next tray in the series.
As you progress through the series of trays, your teeth will gradually move into the proper alignment.

Clear aligner treatment starts with a consultation and initial assessment.
We will evaluate your smile and then map out a precise, customized digital treatment plan that showcases the step-by-step transformation of your smile.
Clear aligners are a type of orthodontic treatment that are used to correct a variety of dental alignment issues.
Once you approve your plan, your unique aligners will be created.
The treatment process typically involves the use of a series of clear, plastic aligners that are worn for a period of time, followed by a series of retainers that help to keep the teeth in their new position.
You will wear each set of aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, changing to a new set of aligners every 1 to 2 weeks, as directed by us.
Each set of aligners will gently and gradually shift your teeth into place, according to your treatment plan, until you reach your beautiful new smile.
When you receive your aligners, you will get a little hard case to store them in. You should always store your aligners in a protective teeth aligner case, instead of just wrapping them up in tissue paper. Aligners can break if something falls on them or if someone accidentally sits on them. You might even throw them in the rubbish as a mistaken used tissue!
It is the perfect size for storing your aligners and chewies, and handy for day-to-day life at the office or out and about.
Keeping them in when eating or drinking something else than water could make them cloudy, distort them if in contact with heat or worse, could cause them to crack and become ineffective.
When it’s time to eat, just pop the aligners out. You can rinse your clear aligners off after taking them out, before putting them back in or both.
This handy little aligner case even has a built-in mirror that can save you time going to the nearest bathroom just to take your aligners out or put them back in!
The little holes at the top of the case ensure that air comes in and out of it for your aligners to stay nice and dry.
Bacteria can spread quite quickly in a wet environment, so it’s a big hygienic must that you have clean aligners every time you put them back in!
You should brush your teeth after every meal or snack before putting your aligners back in. While chewing minty gum might work in everyday life, using aligners requires extra care. Aligners press accurately on your teeth, so clean surfaces are essential for effective treatment. Brushing thoroughly after eating ensures that no food particles are trapped, which could damage the aligners and delay your progress.
If you’ve been asking yourself questions like “Why do my aligners smell?” We have an answer for you.
Like your dental routine, it’s good to have an aligner care routine.
Whenever you remove them, make sure to clean aligners with a soft toothbrush and some water.
This will remove plaque from invisible aligners and leave them clean, ready to wear again.
However, sometimes the natural bacteria and plaque build up can be difficult to clean using only water.
Please do not brush your aligners with toothpaste
Toothpaste was made for teeth, whether you want to keep a regular dental routine or to make your teeth look brighter.
It has a different effect on aligners though, especially whitening toothpaste, can make your clear aligners turn cloudy, and that is why we wouldn’t recommend you using it to clean your aligners!
You can use hand soap to clean aligners
Using a mild handwash or detergent is a good idea to clean your aligners as long as it’s not coloured or has a scent, as it could otherwise stain your invisible aligners. You should also avoid scrubbing them, as that may scratch and damage your aligners.
Wearing aligners for 22 hours a day is crucial for effective treatment. Each aligner is designed to move your teeth by up to 0.2mm over about two weeks. This gradual movement ensures your smile transformation. Teeth move in response to constant forces, and clear aligners apply targeted pressure to guide them into the desired position. If you don't wear the aligners enough, the force activation will be incomplete, slowing down the tooth movement. Consistent wear helps push teeth into their new place and remodels their foundations to keep them there.
If you are in aligner treatment, you should definitely not chew gum whilst they’re in your mouth.
You can however chew gum if the aligners are safely removed beforehand!
Quick reminder: Whether you’re using invisible aligners or not, you should not chew gum that contains sugar. This could lead to tooth decay, cavities and even gum disease.
Smoking is definitely hazardous to your health & we definitely advise not to smoke even if you are not wearing aligners.
Our suggestion here is very similar to the last one. We don’t recommend it as it will most likely stain your aligners (and teeth!).
So again, if you can’t remove your aligners, make sure to drink sips of water regularly to reduce the staining effect.
You will receive your aligners in batches, with each set designed to move your teeth over 2 to 4 weeks, depending on your wear plan. It's important to wear each set for the recommended duration before switching to the next. Don't worry, you'll receive reminders and instructions on when to change to the next set, and our team is always here to assist you if needed.
Attachments help to direct the aligner forces in the right direction. It also helps to achieve the desired treatment outcome. If the broken attachment is not replaced back it may cause undesired tooth movement.
So, we recommend you to report back to us as soon aspossible when you notice a broken attachment.
If one of your dental attachments breaks, you should see us as soon as possible. Depending on the type of attachment, we may be able to repair or replace it.
