Clear aligners are a series of transparent, removable trays. Each tray moves your teeth a fraction of a millimetre, and you change to the next one every 7–10 days. Over the course of treatment the sequence walks your teeth from where they are to where they should be.
The advantage is not only appearance. They come out for meals, so nothing is off the menu, and they come out for brushing, so hygiene stays normal. For working adults and anyone in a client-facing role, that combination is usually the deciding factor.
Chetna Dental Centre is a certified Invisalign provider, and treatment is planned by an MDS orthodontist. That distinction matters: aligners are a delivery mechanism, not a treatment plan. The software will move teeth wherever it is told to. The orthodontist decides where they should go.
You probably need this if…
- You want straighter teeth but cannot commit to visible metal braces
- Mild to moderate crowding, spacing or a mild bite issue
- You have had braces before and your teeth have relapsed
- You are preparing for a wedding, a role change or being on camera
- You play a contact sport or a wind instrument that braces would interfere with
Recognising two or more of these does not confirm a diagnosis. It means an examination is worth booking before the problem gets more expensive.
How the treatment works
- 01 Digital scan and records
An intraoral scan replaces the old impression tray. No gagging, and the accuracy is far higher.
- 02 3D simulation
You see a video of your teeth moving from the current position to the final result, before you pay for the trays.
- 03 Aligner fabrication
Your full series is manufactured and delivered, typically in 3–4 weeks.
- 04 Wear and change
22 hours a day, changing trays every 7–10 days. Removed only for eating, drinking anything but water, and brushing.
- 05 Review and refinement
Check-ins every 6–8 weeks. A short refinement series at the end fine-tunes anything that did not track, then retainers hold the result.
