What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a system of clear, removable aligners that correct the position of the teeth without the need for metal braces.
Each aligner is custom-made and replaced progressively to move the teeth in a controlled manner.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
- Discreet and virtually invisible
Clear aligners can straighten your smile almost unnoticeably, maintaining a natural appearance throughout treatment.
- Removable for eating and brushing
They can be easily removed to eat normally and maintain thorough oral hygiene, without the limitations of traditional braces.
- Greater comfort
As there are no wires or metal components, they reduce rubbing and irritation to the gums and soft tissues.
- Fewer emergency appointments
Without brackets or wires that can become detached or break, the number of unexpected visits to the clinic is reduced.
Who Can Benefit?
- Adults seeking a discreet treatment
- Teenagers
- Mild, moderate and complex cases
Patients can preview the final result before treatment begins, providing greater confidence and reassurance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is a system of clear, removable aligners that correct the position of the teeth without the need for metal braces. Each aligner is custom-made and changed progressively to move the teeth in a controlled manner.
How long does treatment take?
It depends on the complexity of the case, although treatment usually takes between 6 and 18 months. Following the initial digital assessment, the duration can be estimated more accurately.
Is it painful?
A slight feeling of pressure may occur during the first few days after changing aligners, indicating that the treatment is working correctly. It is usually mild and temporary.
Who can benefit from Invisalign®?
It is suitable for adults seeking a discreet treatment, teenagers, and patients with mild, moderate or even complex cases, following a personalised clinical assessment.
How many hours a day should the aligners be worn?
It is recommended that the aligners are worn for 20 to 22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink anything other than water, and carry out your oral hygiene routine.
Can you eat while wearing the aligners?
No. The aligners should be removed when eating and when drinking anything other than water to prevent staining or distortion.
How often are check-ups required?
Check-ups are usually scheduled every 6 to 8 weeks, depending on the progress of the treatment and the established treatment plan.
Are the results really predictable?
Yes. Thanks to 3D digital planning with ClinCheck®, patients can preview a simulation of the final result before starting treatment, providing greater confidence and reassurance.
What happens after treatment is completed?
After completing the active phase of treatment, custom-made retainers are fitted to keep the teeth in their new position and ensure long-term stability.
Is it as effective as traditional orthodontic treatment?
In many cases, yes. Invisalign® can treat a wide range of malocclusions with highly predictable results when the treatment is properly planned and supervised by certified specialists.
