Invisalign^® is a custom-made set of clear plastic aligners which are comfortable and invisible as compared to traditional braces. If you are looking to straighten your teeth using the latest technology, Invisalign^® is your best choice. Invisalign^® aligners are often called ‘invisible braces.’

Patients who can wear the Invisalign^® aligners for at least 20-22 hours a day are eligible for Invisalign^®. It is also the most recommended treatment for older teenagers and adults.

After an initial consultation, our clinic would  give you an approximate cost as it varies depending on the case’s complexity.

Custom aligners are created after taking a mould of your teeth which is used to create a digital scan or scan your teeth directly using the latest imaging technology. These scans are used to create your custom aligners. Aligners are shaped so that they apply pressure in the right places to shift the alignment of the teeth. Based on your orthodontist’s recommendation, your aligners might need to be changed every one or two weeks.

It may take a day or two for your mouth to get a feel for the Invisalign^® aligners. Results depend on person to person and are a temporary effect. Though it is recommended to keep the aligners on for 20-22 hours per day for best outcomes, you may remove them for important occasions like weddings, job interviews etc.

However, removing the aligners for  smoking or using tobacco is not a good idea as the aligner trays get impacted and may lead to overall issues with the wellness of your mouth and other organs as well.
