The Treatment
Invisalign is a brand of clear aligner made by Align Technology. An aligner is a thin, clear plastic tray made to fit closely over your teeth. It does the work of braces without brackets or wires.
You receive a series of aligners. Each one moves your teeth a small, planned amount, and you change to the next one every one to two weeks. Small tooth-coloured attachments may be bonded to a few teeth to help the aligners grip.
Patients across Gurugram (Gurgaon) choose aligners mainly because they are hard to see and can be taken out to eat and to brush.
Who It Suits
Aligners treat most of the problems that braces treat. These are the common ones.
Teeth that overlap or twist because the jaw has too little room for them.
Spaces between the front teeth or along the arch that you would like closed.
Upper front teeth that sit too far over or ahead of the lower teeth.
Lower front teeth that close in front of the upper teeth.
Some upper teeth that bite inside the lower teeth instead of outside them.
Teeth that have shifted years after earlier treatment, often because retainers were not worn.
Some complex cases are still treated better with fixed braces. An examination and a scan show which option suits your teeth, and we will tell you plainly if braces are the better choice.
Step by Step
Most of the treatment happens at home. This is the usual order.
The orthodontist examines your teeth and bite, then takes photographs, X-rays and a scan of your teeth.
Each tooth movement is planned on screen. You see the expected result, the number of aligners and the cost before you decide.
Your aligners are made to order. At the fitting we place any attachments and show you how to put the aligners in and take them out.
You wear each set for 20 to 22 hours a day and move to the next set as advised. We check progress every 6 to 8 weeks.
When the teeth are in place, retainers hold them there. Without retainers, teeth slowly move back.
Daily Life
The result depends on how many hours a day the aligners are in your mouth.

Mild cases can finish in about six months. Most take between 6 and 18 months, and complex bite corrections can take longer. Your orthodontist gives you an expected timeline after the scan.
The cost depends on how far your teeth need to move and how many aligners that takes, so it differs from one person to the next. We share a written estimate after the consultation and scan, before you commit.
Neither is better for everyone. Aligners are less visible and come out for meals, but they work only if you wear them as advised. Braces stay on the teeth, so they work all the time, and they suit some complex cases better. Your orthodontist will tell you which fits your teeth.
Expect pressure or tightness for the first two or three days of each new set. That is the aligner moving your teeth, and it settles. Sharp or lasting pain is not normal, so call us if you have it.
Yes, once enough permanent teeth have come in. The main question is whether your teenager will wear the aligners for the full hours every day. If that is unlikely, fixed braces are the safer choice.
Take them out for all food and for every drink except plain water. Tea, coffee and coloured drinks stain the aligners, and sugar trapped under them can cause decay.
Yes. Teeth tend to drift back towards their old positions after any orthodontic treatment, with aligners or with braces. Retainers hold the result, and your orthodontist will tell you how often to wear them.
