How Invisalign Works
Invisalign uses SmartTrack® material, a patented thermoplastic designed for optimal comfort, fit, and control of tooth movement. The treatment process involves:
- 3D Digital Scanning
At Finesse Dental Clinic, we begin with a precise 3D scan of your teeth (no messy impressions), using advanced iTero® technology to create a digital model of your mouth. - Customized Treatment Plan
Using AI-powered Invisalign software, we simulate your step-by-step progress and final smile outcome—even before treatment begins. - Series of Aligners
You receive a set of aligners, each slightly different, to be worn sequentially. Each tray gently moves your teeth closer to the desired position. - Wear Schedule
Aligners must be worn for 20–22 hours a day and changed approximately every 7–14 days as prescribed.
Monitoring & Refinements
Regular in-clinic or remote check-ins ensure you’re on track. In some cases, refinements (additional aligners) may be needed to perfect your results.
What Invisalign Treats
Invisalign can treat a wide range of dental issues, including:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Spacing and gaps between teeth
- Overbite, underbite, crossbite, and open bite
- Relapse after braces (teeth shifting back)

Who Can Get Invisalign?
Invisalign is suitable for teens and adults who want a discreet and effective orthodontic solution. Certain complex cases may require additional treatments, which we’ll evaluate during your consultation.
Other Clear Aligners: Aesthetic Alternatives to Braces
Besides Invisalign, several other clear aligner systems are available in the market. While they work on the same principle—gradually moving teeth using transparent trays—they differ in materials, treatment planning, and professional oversight.
Popular Alternatives to Invisalign
- ClearCorrect®
Developed in the U.S., ClearCorrect offers a similar tray-based treatment but uses a different type of plastic. It’s effective for mild to moderate cases and is often more cost-effective. - Flash Aligners (India)
A newer Indian brand that offers digital treatment planning and aligner delivery with decent results, particularly for simpler alignment issues. - Illusion Aligners / 32 Watts / K Line
Other Indian brands offering moderate results for cases that don’t require complex tooth movement.
At-home aligners (e.g., toothsi)
These are direct-to-consumer aligners that eliminate in-clinic visits but come with significant limitations in precision, case selection, and professional supervision.
Pros of Other Clear Aligners
- Often lower in cost compared to Invisalign
- Locally made, with faster delivery timelines
- Can be suitable for simple alignment cases
Limitations Compared to Invisalign
- Lack of SmartTrack® material, which ensures better control and movement
- Less precise or predictable results in complex cases
- Some systems lack in-person monitoring, increasing risk of poor outcomes
- May not include refinements or mid-course corrections unless paid separately
Fewer scientific studies and less global clinical data compared to Invisalign

Optional small tooth-colored attachments help with complex movements like tooth rotation or vertical movement—something many other systems cannot achieve. - Faster Results in Many Cases
With optimized tooth movement, Invisalign can often deliver faster results than traditional braces or generic aligners, especially in mild to moderate cases. - Better Oral Hygiene
Since aligners are removable, you can maintain your normal brushing and flossing routine without interference, reducing the risk of cavities or gum disease during treatment. - Lifestyle-Friendly
No food restrictions—just remove the aligners before eating. Enjoy your favorite foods without worry, unlike with metal braces. - Comfortable for Sports & Events
Ideal for athletes and public speakers—no sharp brackets or risk of mouth injury from metal wires during sports or activities. - Treatment Simulation
Invisalign offers a clear preview of your smile transformation even before you begin, thanks to its ClinCheck® software. - Minimal Emergency Visits
