Choosing to straighten your teeth is a big decision, and we’re here to make it easy. Here are answers to the most common questions about Invisalign and clear aligners in South Africa.
Invisalign is a modern orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to straighten teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, making them a discreet option for both teens and adults.
Invisalign aligners apply gentle, controlled pressure to your teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired position. You’ll receive a series of custom-made aligners, each designed to move your teeth slightly until your new smile is complete.
The length of treatment varies based on your specific needs. Most people see noticeable results within a few weeks, with full treatment typically lasting between 6 to 12 months. Complex cases may take longer.
Invisalign is designed for comfort. You might feel mild pressure when switching to a new set of aligners, but this is a sign that they’re working. There are no metal brackets or wires to cause irritation.
Yes! Simply remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water. This means no food restrictions—enjoy all your favourites without worry.
For the best results, wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss.

Both have their pros and cons. Invisalign is discreet, removable, and more comfortable, making it ideal for adults and teens who want a less noticeable option. Braces are better for complex orthodontic issues. We’ll help you decide which is right for you during your consultation.
Invisalign can treat a wide range of issues, including crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. However, very severe cases may require traditional orthodontics. A consultation will determine the best option for you.
Rinse your aligners with water and brush them gently with a soft toothbrush. Avoid hot water, as it can warp the plastic. For deeper cleaning, Invisalign offers cleaning crystals designed specifically for aligners.
