Invisalign aligners
Invisalign technology uses aligners (a series of transparent, removable, almost invisible elements ) that are specially adapted to your teeth, applying a controlled and constant force. Invisalign aligners are made by the largest manufacturer of aligners, Align Technology.
Invisalign removable aligners are also suitable for children between 6 and 10 years old, who can benefit from the Invisalign First range. For teenagers, Invisalign has developed the Invisalign Teen range and for adults, the Invisalign Express, Lite and Comprehensive ranges.
Advantages of Invisalign aligners
Wondering what are the main advantages of Invisalign? What should make you choose the patented American technology for teeth alignment and / or bite correction? Here are a few things you should keep in mind.
Aesthetics
Invisalign is an aesthetic orthodontic system that has established the term 'invisible' in orthodontics. Because the appliance is almost invisible, it won't affect your social life.
Precision
Using advanced 3D computer imaging technologies, Invisalign reconstructs your complete treatment plan based on your orthodontist's prescription. Treatment planning with software developed and patented by Align Technology, allows for maximum precision in performing treatments and gives you the ability to visualize your treatment plan from start to finish, even before treatment begins. The forces with which Invisalign appliances act on teeth can be adjusted very precisely, minimising the risk of root resorption.
Comfort
Invisalign aligners are very comfortable and can be removed by yourself in seconds, without the need for intervention from the orthodontist.
No dietary restrictions
Wearing orthodontic appliances with 'invisible' aligners does not require any dietary restrictions. The aligners are removed during meals.
Optimal oral hygiene
Invisalign system promotes complete and easy oral hygiene by removing the aligners during cleaning you teeth. This reduces the risk of caries, tooth decay and periodontal disease.
Versatility
Invisalign invisible aligners are removable! If you have an important business meeting or family event, you can remove your aligners/trays for a short period of time.
Minimal risk of complications
Align Technology (Invisalign) aligners do not damage the mucosa, do not cause gum inflammation, do not cause enamel abrasion, do not cause allergic reactions.
100% customized
Each 'invisible' Invisalign aligner is made specifically for each case.
Short time in the orthodontist`s chair
Activating Invisalign aligners requires much shorter working times compared to fixed orthodontic braces.
Check-ups at longer intervals
Visits to the orthodontist for activations and regular check-ups are carried out at longer intervals, offering the possibility of treating patients from all over the country or even abroad.
At what age can you benefit from Invisalign aligners treatments?
- Invisalign First
- Invisalign Teen
- Invisalign Adult
Invisalign for kids (6-10 years)
Invisalign First treatment has many enhancements tailored to the unique orthodontic needs of small growing patients. With Invisalign First the following anomalies can be corrected:
- Narrow jaw, or underdeveloped dental arches
- Crowded teeth or dental gaps
- Sagittal jaw misalignment (mandible too far back from jaw)
- Protruded (too far forward) or retruded (too far back) teeth
- Dental interferences that can cause incorrect positioning of the mandible relative to the jaw.
Invisalign for teens (10-16 years)
Invisalign has several treatment options available for teenagers, depending on the stage of tooth development. Some teenagers will be eligible for the same Invisalign treatment as adult patients. Younger teens or those whose adult teeth have not yet erupted can be treated with Invisalign Teen - a treatment specifically designed for teens.
Why Invisalign Teen?
Invisalign Teen was developed with teens, parents and leading orthodontists who understand the active lifestyles and unique treatment needs of teen patients. Invisalign Teen aligners are created with the same Align Technology used for regular Invisalign aligners, which relies on moving teeth without the need for metal or wires. Invisalign Teen braces are comfortable, removable so teens can continue to brush and floss as usual. The great benefit of Invisalign is that it offers an aesthetic and more flexible solution to give teens the confidence of a great smile.
It is very advantageous for a teenager who plays contact sports (martial arts, basketball, etc.) - compared to braces that use brackets - and needs extra protection to protect the oral cavity from injuries caused by wires, brackets following contact.
Since teenagers are always on the move, we've added a few special features:
- The blue-colored wear indicators fade from blue to clear to help your Invisalign-certified orthodontist, you and your teen measure the length of wear.
- Special features designed to compensate for canine, second premolar and second molar eruption.
- Six free individual replacement aligners are included in case some get lost or misplaced.
