An alternative to traditional braces, Invisalign treatment consists of a series of clear, removable aligners which are changed every few weeks. Invisalign is made with strong medical grade thermoplastic material and the aligners are custom-made for you and fit snugly over your teeth.
As the name suggests, these custom-made aligners are also nearly invisible, making it barely noticeable!
Each aligner has to be worn for at least 22 hours per day to allow teeth to move into an improved, pre-determined position. Throughout the process, orthodontic records such as photographs, models of teeth and bite, X-rays – are taken and sent overseas to Invisalign’s specialised laboratory. The laboratory creates a computer-generated 3D image and a simulation of teeth movement on Invisalign’s Clincheck software. Once you and the dentist view and approve of the treatment plan on the Clincheck software, the clear aligners are manufactured and shipped to Singapore! You are ready to start the process of achieving your new smile!
This is when the upper teeth overlap the lower teeth. A small amount of overlapping is common, but more severe cases of overbite could cause pain when you’re eating or chewing.
An underbite is the opposite of an overbite. The lower teeth overlap the upper teeth. This may cause problems with eating, chewing or talking.
A crossbite is where the upper teeth fit behind the lower teeth which may cause decay or difficulty speaking.
This is where the upper and lower teeth are unable to close to meet each other. This may cause teeth sensitivity and talking with a lisp.
Teeth spacing is when there are bigger gaps between two or more teeth which may result in speech difficulties and pieces of food getting stuck between teeth more easily.
This is when there is insufficient space in the jaw for all the teeth to grow and fit in. This causes some teeth to be pushed to one side or grow in a twisted position.

The costs of Invisalign is often greater than traditional braces because of the high fees levied by the Invisalign laboratory for the fabrication of the series of aligners.
