Invisalign aligners
Predictable outcome and imperceptibility of treatment 
Temporarily unavailable in Russia The Invisalign aligner system is an individual set of transparent caps for controlled bite correction from the American manufacturer Align Technology, Inc.
Align Technology first introduced transparent aligners for bite correction as an alternative to non-removable braces in 1999. By 2020, the clinical practice of using Invisalign aligners worldwide has more than 9 million patients worldwide.

How do Invisalign aligners correct overbite?
A set of Invisalign individual caps is made from virtual casts of the patient's dentition in the USA. Each pair of caps fits snugly to the teeth and gently moves them in the right direction strictly according to the treatment plan.
For proper functioning of aligners, attachments are installed on the teeth — small pads made of composite material that matches the color of the teeth. With their help, the pressure cap works with the correct force and in the right direction.
Each mouth guard should be worn for 1-2 weeks, at least 22 hours a day. The number of caps, their wear period, position and number of attachments are calculated in the ClinCheck program when planning treatment.
The full course of treatment on Invisalign aligners is usually about 10-20 months.
Features of Invisalign aligners:
-
The program ClinCheck for visualizing the course of treatment and the final result in 3D. Thanks to virtual planning, bite correction on Invisalign aligners is a fully predictable and controlled process from diagnosis to completion. The program accurately calculates the movement of each tooth and the alignment sequence to achieve optimal results even in difficult clinical situations.
-
Technology Smart Force — A mouthpiece and attachment design that provides the most precise and controlled application of force to the tooth.
-
Invisalign mouthguards are made from a patented polymerized biosilicone material SmartTrack — elastic and hypoallergenic medical material. It does not traumatize the soft tissues and enamel of the teeth.
-
Orthodontists who work on the Invisalign aligner system are trained and certified by the Align Technology Center.

Limitations of Invisalign Aligners:
Aligners are not suitable for correcting skeletal forms of malocclusion — when alignment is compromised not because of the position of the teeth, but because of the size and position of the jaw bones. Patients with skeletal anomalies are indicated for orthognathic surgery. Aligners in this case can be used in the preparation stage — to place the teeth in the correct position.
Advantages of bite correction on Invisalign aligners:
-
They are almost invisible on the teeth.
-
You can not give up your favorite and familiar food and drinks.
-
A predictable result is still at the planning stage.
-
Controlled and atraumatic movement of teeth.
-
Comfort for soft tissues safety for enamel.
-
Rare visits to the orthodontist (on average, once every 8 weeks).
-
More convenient and easy home hygiene compared to a bracket system
-
You need to wear it 22 hours a day
-
The cost is higher than that of braces
How to take care of Invisalign aligners and teeth during orthodontic treatment?
Maintenance of aligners
It is recommended to wear aligners for at least 22 hours a day, take them off during meals and put them in a special box for this time. Mouthguards are very easy to care for: it is enough to clean them with a soap brush under running water. Once a week, you can use tablets to clean dentures “Korega”.
Aligners should not be dipped in hot water or held over steam for cleaning — the silicone will deform. Do not drink colored drinks or smoke in the mouth guard — they absorb pigment and cannot be cleaned.
Dental care
The technique of brushing teeth with attachments does not differ from hygiene without them. Brushing your teeth with a brush and paste is desirable after each meal, use dental floss, brushes, and an irrigator before going to bed.
At night, we recommend placing remineralizing gels (ROCS Medical Minerals, GC Tooth Mousse) in the cells of the aligner. They strengthen the enamel, add shine and have a whitening effect.
