Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible so it’s difficult for others to notice the treatment.
Invisalign aligners are removable. You can remove them before eating/drinking and easily brush and floss to maintain good oral hygiene.
Invisalign treatment allows you to visualise each stage of the treatment process, from the beginning to the end, giving you a clearer picture of the treatment duration.
Approximately 6-8 weeks between doctor visits.
Traditional Braces
The wires and brackets of traditional braces are visible.
Most patients may feel pain each time braces are adjusted. The metal brackets may also irritate the mouth and cause ulcers.
Braces are fixed and not removable during the teeth straightening treatment. This makes it difficult to eat certain types of food (e.g. apples, nuts) and it can be difficult to clean and floss your teeth with the braces in.
Approximately 3-4 weeks between doctor visits.
