Woman Invisalign Align Dental Surgery

INVISALIGN

Invisalign is the clear alternative to metal braces for adults and teens. With Invisalign, you can straighten your teeth without brackets and wires, using a series of clear, customised, removable aligners.

Invisalign is virtually invisible, so you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing, and you can still eat and drink whatever you want.

So if you're looking to transform your smile without anyone knowing, Invisalign is the clear choice!

TYPES OF INVISALIGN

  • Fix existing teeth-straightening issues

  • Improve the look and confidence of a growing child's smile

  • Correct oral behaviours such as thumb sucking or tongue thrusting

  • Removable for easy cleaning. A breeze for children to brush and floss with ease.

THE INVISALIGN PROCESS

BRACES VS INVISALIGN

BRACES

Conventional metal or ceramic braces is still the recommended option if you fall into any of these categories.

  • Complex teeth problems. Invisalign is not suitable for all cases. Some complex orthodontic cases with severe misalignment still require conventional braces for full correction.

  • Patients concerned about appearance can opt to have brackets attached on the sides of the teeth nearer the tongue though these are less comfortable.

  • Prefer not to have the hassle and discipline of consciously wearing removable braces for an extended period of time

  • More frequent dental visits, every 3 to 4 weeks

INVISALIGN

The use of clear aligners, like Invisalign is gaining popular, not without reason. Find out why more people opt for Invisalign.

  • Minor teeth correction required to straighten your teeth to achieve that perfect smile.

  • Invisalign is more aesthetically pleasing than braces. It’s almost invisible! So no one knows you are correcting your teeth to perfection.

  • Invisalign is removable, making it easier to eat, brush, and floss. However, you need to be disciplined and wear your aligners for 20-22 hours daily.

  • Fewer dental visits, between 1 to 2 months
