Invisalign is a removeable easy to clean carry and fit trey-based system made of a flexible plastic material called Smart Track. SmartTrack is a BPA-free, medical-grade plastic used to make Invisalign clear aligners. It’s a proprietary blend of polyurethane resins that are designed to move teeth gradually. 

Invisalign was introduced to the market in 1998 by Align Technology. Since then, clearer aligners from other brands have come into the market, such as Spark, Clear Correct, and Lab.

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign works by using a series of clear aligners that are changed every few weeks to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. The treatment time varies based on individual needs, but on average, the aligners should be worn for about 22 hours a day to effectively straighten your smile.

Age is no limit with Invisalign, if you do contact sports or public speaking these removable systems work for you in any situation. If you have minor gaps or a crooked smile it can be easily corrected with a basic plan to cover those issues. Other conditions that can be treated with Invisalign are:

  • some types of overbite, underbite, and crossbite issues
  • open bite
  • gap teeth
  • crowded teeth
