What is Invisalign?

To correct crooked teeth, an orthodontic specialist places certain appliances on the teeth and applies force to bring the teeth into their correct positions. When these appliances are mentioned, metal-looking braces usually come to mind. However, thanks to today’s advanced technology, tooth movement can be achieved without braces, simply by applying clear aligners that cover the teeth. There are various companies that produce clear aligners. At our clinic, clear aligners produced with the Invisalign system are used. Today, in orthodontic treatment technology, aligners with a transparent plastic appearance, which we call clear aligners, are used. Invisalign is an American clear aligner brand that has become synonymous with clear aligners. Although they provide the same treatment, there are many differences between metal braces and Invisalign.

Invisalign is a new invention in the main discipline of orthodontics, made by shaping plastic material that is completely harmless to human health using heat. Since its discovery, it has been applied to more than 4 million patients. Its production and patent belong to an American company. Invisalign clear aligners are not available at every clinic. In order to apply the Invisalign clear aligner to the teeth, the teeth must be examined with a precise 3D scanner that can take accurate impressions of the teeth. This device is called the iTero 3D orthodontic imaging device. Because this device is expensive, it is not available in every dental clinic.

Invisalign price

Invisalign clear aligners, which have many advantages over metal and other types of braces, are naturally a little more expensive than other types of braces. However, Invisalign can offer a comfortable treatment process; which option is most suitable is determined after an examination. Since the treatment process varies according to the patient’s condition, giving a price before an orthodontic examination would not be sound. You can be examined at our clinic and learn every detail.
