Virtually Invisible Braces with Invisalign
Invisalign aligners like the name suggests are an invisible alternative to metal braces and can be used by children, teens as well as adults.
Gone are the days when your teeth were straightened with wires and brackets. Invisalign is a treatment method using a series of clear, removable appliances called aligners which have been specifically designed to fit your teeth.
The aligners gradually cause your teeth to shift their position slightly over a period of two weeks. Every two weeks, you will change your set of aligners and this will cause your teeth to move a little more. Over the weeks and months, your teeth will straighten into their proper positions, as prescribed by your dental practitioner.
What can be treated with Invisalign®
Overbite
Overbite
An overbite is when your upper front teeth overlap with your lower front teeth. Most people have at least a little overbite.
Underbite
Underbite
An underbite is when you close your mouth and your lower front teeth are in front of your upper teeth. In many cases, this is actually a problem with your lower jaw being too far forward.
Cross-bite
Cross-bite
When you close your mouth and some of your upper teeth are sitting inside your lower teeth — rather than on the outside, like they normally would — your doctor calls this a crossbite.
Gap Teeth
Gap Teeth
When you have extra space between two or more of your teeth, your doctor calls this spacing issues or gap teeth.
Open Bite
Open Bite
If your upper and lower teeth don't touch when your mouth is closed, your doctor calls this an open bite.
Crowded Teeth
Crowded Teeth
When you don't have enough room in your jaw for your teeth to fit normally, your teeth can bunch up, overlap and twist, sometimes getting pushed to the front or the back.

What is the process of Invisalign treatment?
1. Consultation & Examination by the Specialist Orthodontist
2. Scans and X rays to assess the feasibility and draw out a treatment plan based on the individual complexities.
3. A Digital scan which is then sent across to Align Technology to plan the Invisalign treatment.
4. Review of chin-cheek ratio. Align Technology will revert with a virtual video of the teeth movement from the current position to the expected final position based on the detailed prescription drafted by the Orthodontist.
5. Most importantly, our orthodontist will review the video and make the necessary changes to ensure that movements are feasible and that they produce the desired result. This video is shared with you for your approval and upon your confirmation, Align technology will manufacture the aligner and ship it to us.
