How Aligners Work

Invisalign Braces vs Traditional Metal Braces

While many people refer to Invisalign clear aligners as “braces,” they are not braces in the traditional sense. Instead of using metal brackets and wires, this alternative to traditional braces uses plastic aligners to gradually shift your teeth into place.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

  • Discreet Appearance: These plastic aligners are virtually invisible, offering a low-profile solution for those concerned about appearance.
  • Removable Design: You wear your aligners for 22 hours a day, removing them only for eating and drinking, brushing, or flossing.
  • Comfort: With no wires or brackets, most patients experience less irritation during treatment.
  • Convenience: No in-office wire tightening. Each set of aligners is swapped out on a regular schedule.
  • Lifestyle Flexibility: You can eat what you want, maintain better dental health, and clean your aligners with ease.
Traditional Metal Braces
  • High Visibility: Metal brackets and wires are fixed and noticeable, though some opt for ceramic braces for a less visible option.
  • Fixed Design: Once placed, braces stay on until the end of treatment. This limits flexibility during meals and hygiene routines.
  • Durability: These braces can correct more severe alignment or bite issues that clear aligners may not address fully.
  • Regular Adjustments: A dentist or orthodontist will adjust wires regularly to continue straightening your teeth.
  • Food Restrictions: Sticky or hard foods must be avoided to prevent damage to the braces.

Why this matters: Both options come with their pros and cons, and the right choice depends on your goals, comfort level, and lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Invisalign FAQs

How long will my Invisalign treatment take?

Invisalign treatment typically takes six to 24 months, depending on how much correction your teeth need. Many patients begin noticing visible changes within just a few weeks.
Key points:

  • Minor adjustments can come in as little as six months
  • Moderate to complex cases: up to 1–2 years
  • Noticeable improvements often appear in the first few weeks

Why this matters: Knowing the expected timeline helps set realistic goals and keeps you motivated as you progress through treatment.

Will Invisalign affect my diet?

No, Invisalign will not affect your diet the way traditional metal braces can. With braces, patients often need to avoid sticky, hard, or crunchy foods that may damage the brackets or wires.
Invisalign clear aligners work differently. Since the aligners are removable, you can take them out whenever you need to eat or drink. That means you can continue enjoying your favorite meals without restrictions.

To keep your treatment effective, you should wear your aligners for 22 hours a day. Removing them during meals also allows you to brush and floss normally, which supports better dental health throughout treatment. The flexibility of this treatment option makes Invisalign a popular choice for patients who want to straighten their teeth without changing their eating and drinking habits.

Who is a good candidate for Invisalign?

Good candidates for Invisalign are people with mild to moderate alignment issues, such as crooked teeth, small gaps, or certain bite problems. Invisalign works best for patients who can wear their aligners consistently as directed.

Key points:

  • Suitable for mild to moderate crowding or spacing
  • Can treat certain overbites, underbites, and crossbites
  • Requires commitment to wearing aligners 20–22 hours a day
  • Best for teens and adults with fully developed teeth

Why this matters: Understanding candidacy helps patients decide if Invisalign is a practical solution before starting treatment.

What happens if I forget to wear my aligners?

For Invisalign treatment to stay on track, you should wear your aligners 22 hours a day. If you forget to wear them for a short time, your teeth may shift slightly, which can make the aligners feel tight when you put them back in. Missing too much wear time can delay progress and extend the length of your treatment.

If you regularly forget to wear your aligners, your set of aligners may no longer fit properly, and your dentist or orthodontist may need to adjust your treatment plan. To avoid setbacks, try to keep your aligners in whenever possible and only remove them for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.

Staying consistent will help you see results faster and keep your smile moving in the right direction.

How do I clean and care for my aligners?

To keep Invisalign aligners clear and effective, clean them daily and handle them with care. Proper cleaning prevents discoloration, odor, and bacterial buildup.
Key steps:

  • Rinse aligners with lukewarm water whenever you remove them
  • Brush gently with a soft toothbrush (without toothpaste, which can scratch)
  • Use Invisalign cleaning crystals or mild, clear soap for deeper cleaning
  • Store aligners in their case when not in use to prevent loss or damage
  • Avoid hot water, which can warp the plastic

Why this matters: Consistent care keeps your aligners discreet, hygienic, and working as intended throughout treatment.
