The Invisalign Treatment Journey
Here’s how your Invisalign process would typically unfold:
- Initial Consultation
We’ll assess your teeth, discuss your goals, and decide if Invisalign is the right option for you. - Treatment Planning & Design
Using digital 3D scans, we design a series of aligners mapped to your desired movement. - Receive Aligners & Begin Wearing
You’ll get your first sets of custom aligners. Wear each set for roughly 1–2 weeks. - Regular Check-ups & Adjustments
You’ll visit us periodically so we can monitor your progress and issue new aligners. - Reveal & Retain
Once your treatment is complete, you’ll receive retainers to maintain your new smile.
During treatment, aligners should be worn up to 22 hours a day, removed only to eat, drink, clean, and brush. We would also recommend to remove during sport to avoid damage to the Aligners.

Most patients achieve their results from 12 to 18 months, though some cases may be shorter or longer.
Will Invisalign hurt?
You may feel mild pressure when switching to a new aligner set, but it’s generally more comfortable than traditional braces.

To ensure progress, aligners should be worn 20–22 hours per day, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
How do I clean my aligners?
