What is Invisalign and how does it work?

Invisalign is a modern alternative to traditional braces that aim to straighten teeth and correct various dental misalignments. Using advanced technology, the movement of your teeth are precisely mapped out into a series of customised clear and removable aligners made of smooth plastic. Each set of aligners, typically worn for 1-2 weeks, apply gentle, controlled forces to guide the teeth into their desired positions. After progressing through sets of aligners, your teeth will gradually shift into alignment according to the treatment plan.

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
