How to Care for Your Invisalign Aligners
To get the best results from your Invisalign treatment, it is important to follow a few simple guidelines:
- Wear your aligners for at least 20–22 hours per day — consistency is key to achieving results on schedule
- Remove aligners before eating or drinking anything other than plain water
- Clean aligners morning and night by gently brushing with a soft toothbrush and rinsing in cool (not hot) water
- Brush and floss your teeth after every meal before reinserting aligners
- Store your aligners in their case when not wearing them — never wrap them in a napkin or tissue
- Avoid leaving aligners exposed in direct sunlight or warm environments, which can warp the plastic
- Attend all scheduled check-up appointments at W12 Dental to ensure your treatment is progressing correctly

What Dental Issues Can Invisalign Treat
Invisalign is not just a cosmetic tool — it is a clinically proven orthodontic system capable of correcting a wide range of dental misalignments, including:
- Crowded teeth — when there is not enough space in the jaw for all teeth to sit properly
- Gaps and spacing — unwanted spaces between teeth that affect appearance and function
- Overbite — upper front teeth that protrude excessively over the lower teeth
- Underbite — lower teeth that sit in front of the upper teeth when biting
- Crossbite — some upper teeth sitting inside the lower teeth
- Open bite — upper and lower teeth that do not meet when the mouth is closed
- Mild to moderate bite irregularities — impacting chewing, speech, and jaw comfort

What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is the world’s leading clear aligner system, used by over 15 million patients globally. Instead of fixed metal brackets, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, BPA-free plastic trays — called aligners — that fit snugly over your teeth and gradually shift them into alignment.
Each aligner is worn for approximately one to two weeks before being swapped for the next in the series, progressively guiding your teeth toward their ideal position. Because the aligners are removable and virtually invisible, they offer a level of freedom and discretion that traditional braces simply cannot match.
At W12 Dental & Implant Centre, every Invisalign treatment begins with a detailed 3D digital scan of your teeth. This allows our clinicians to map out the entire tooth movement journey and even show you a virtual preview of your final smile before treatment starts.

Most Frequently Asked Questions
Invisalign is generally more comfortable than traditional braces. You may experience mild pressure or slight soreness for 1–3 days when you switch to a new set of aligners — this is a sign the aligners are working. There are no sharp brackets or wires to irritate the inside of your mouth.
Yes — one of Invisalign's biggest advantages is that you remove the aligners to eat. This means no dietary restrictions. You can eat whatever you like, simply remove your aligners, enjoy your meal, then brush your teeth and reinsert them. You should only drink plain water while wearing aligners.
Some patients notice a very slight lisp during the first few days as their tongue adjusts to the aligners. This typically resolves within a week as you adapt. Most patients find their speech returns to normal very quickly.
Regular oral hygiene sessions do not just give your teeth a thorough cleanse but can also detect and prevent many health problems. Some symptoms of medical conditions can be identified early on if you have a regular oral and dental check-up.
Yes, retention is an essential part of any orthodontic treatment. Once your teeth have reached their final position, we provide a custom-made retainer to keep them there. Without a retainer, teeth naturally drift back over time. We include retainer options as part of your comprehensive Invisalign package at W12 Dental.
Absolutely. Invisalign Teen is specifically designed for younger patients. It includes compliance indicators so parents can monitor wear time, and includes replacement aligners for lost or damaged trays — making it a practical and discreet alternative to metal braces for teens.
