Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners used to straighten teeth as an alternative to traditional metal braces. It consists of a series of custom-made, removable plastic trays that gradually shift the teeth into the desired position over time.

How Invisalign Works:

1. Consultation – A dentist or orthodontist assesses your teeth to determine if Invisalign is suitable.
2. Custom Treatment Plan – Digital scans or impressions are taken to create a 3D model of your teeth and plan their movement.
3. Wearing the Aligners – You receive a set of aligners that you wear for about 20-22 hours per day, changing to a new set every 1-2 weeks.
4. Gradual Movement – Each set of aligners applies gentle pressure to move the teeth.
5. Completion & Retainers – Once the treatment is done (usually 6-18 months, depending on complexity), retainers are used to maintain the results.

Benefits of Invisalign:

• Nearly invisible – Made from clear plastic, making them less noticeable.
• Removable – Can be taken out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
• More comfortable – No metal brackets or wires that may irritate gums.
• Fewer dental visits – Typically requires check-ups every 6-8 weeks.
