What Is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a clear aligner system used to straighten teeth without fixed braces. It uses a series of custom-made, removable trays designed to gradually move teeth into the planned position.

Each aligner tray is worn for approximately one to two weeks before being replaced by the next in the sequence. Each tray applies controlled, incremental forces to guide tooth movement. Aligners must be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day for treatment to progress as planned, and patient compliance is a key factor in outcomes.

The scope of what aligners can treat has expanded with advances in aligner technology and attachment design. However, limitations remain, and clinical assessment is required to determine whether Invisalign is suitable for your case.

What Are the Benefits of Invisalign?

Clear aligner therapy offers several practical advantages over fixed braces for suitable candidates. The following outlines key properties of Invisalign aligners. Individual suitability is assessed clinically.

Virtually Invisible

Root canal treatment preserves a tooth that would otherwise require extraction. The following outlines clinical and functional benefits of the procedure. These are not guarantees. Outcomes depend on the extent of infection, remaining tooth structure, and post-treatment care.

Removable & Convenient

Unlike fixed braces, aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. There are no dietary restrictions, and oral hygiene is easier to maintain. Aligners must be worn 20 to 22 hours per day for treatment to progress as planned.

Smooth, Custom-Fitted Trays

Aligners use smooth, custom-fitted trays instead of metal brackets and wires. This may feel more comfortable for some patients. Mild pressure when switching to a new tray is normal and typically settles within a day or two.

Why Choose Invisalign at Misora?

Experienced Clinical Team
Care is delivered by experienced clinicians with advanced training and clinical experience across Singapore and South Korea. Invisalign consultations and reviews are conducted in-clinic with consistent oversight.
Digital Scanning & ClinCheck Planning
Digital impressions are taken using an intraoral scanner, without traditional moulds. Scans are submitted for ClinCheck simulation and reviewed before aligner fabrication begins, allowing visualisation of planned tooth movement. (ClinCheck is a sophisticated 3D modeling software that allows clinicians to digitally plan, simulate, and visualize the entire tooth-straightening process)
Direct Clinical Monitoring at Every Stage
Findings and treatment options are explained before any procedure begins. Patients are involved in decision-making, and no treatment proceeds without informed consent.
Honest Case Selection
Root canal treatment is performed under local anaesthetic, with the area fully numb throughout. Adequate anaesthesia is ensured before proceeding. Mild sensitivity after treatment is common and typically resolves without further intervention.

What Teeth Conditions Can Invisalign Address?

Root canal treatment is required when the pulp inside the tooth becomes infected or irreversibly damaged. Several conditions can lead to this.

Overcrowding

Overcrowding occurs when there is insufficient space in the jaw for teeth to align properly. Teeth may overlap, twist, or be displaced. This can make cleaning more difficult and increase the risk of decay and gum disease.

Overjet (Buck Teeth)

An excessive overjet occurs when the upper front teeth extend too far forward over the lower front teeth. This differs from an overbite, which is a vertical overlap. Significant overjet may affect appearance and, in some cases, function.

Underbite

An underbite occurs when the lower teeth and jaw sit in front of the upper teeth. More severe cases may affect chewing or speech. Suitability for aligners depends on whether the cause is dental or skeletal.

Crossbite

A crossbite occurs when some upper teeth sit behind the lower teeth when the mouth is closed. This may affect one or multiple teeth. If untreated, it can lead to uneven wear and chipping.

Open Bite

An open bite occurs when the upper and lower teeth do not meet when the mouth is closed. This may affect appearance and speech. The condition can be dental or skeletal in origin, and suitability for aligners is assessed case by case.

Spacing

Spacing refers to gaps between two or more teeth. This may result from missing teeth, smaller tooth size, or jaw structure. Gaps can trap food and affect speech. Invisalign may be effective for closing mild to moderate spacing in suitable cases.

What Invisalign Can and Cannot Address

Orthodontic needs vary by age and stage of dental development. Suitability is assessed individually, with clear advice on whether Invisalign or fixed braces are more appropriate.
Group Suitability Details
Adults Discreet, removable, clinically monitored Clear aligners are suitable for adults with mild to moderate spacing, crowding, or bite concerns. Aligners can be removed for eating and cleaning, with no dietary restrictions. Fixed braces may be recommended where more precise three-dimensional control is required.
Teens Alignment during the right stage Teens with a full set of permanent teeth may be suitable for Invisalign, provided daily wear of 20 to 22 hours is maintained. Where compliance is uncertain, fixed braces may offer a more consistent approach. Bite, bone structure, and dental history are assessed before recommendation.
Children Timing matters, early assessment advised Orthodontic treatment in children depends on the stage of dental development and eruption of permanent teeth. Appropriate timing is advised following assessment. Early review allows monitoring before active treatment is indicated. Not all children require early intervention.

The Invisalign Process at Misora

1
Consultation & Assessment
Examination, vitality testing, and periapical X-rays. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, canal anatomy (number of canals, curvature, calcification) is reviewed. A treatment plan, expected appointments, and fee estimate are provided
2
Begin Treatment
Aligners are delivered and fitted, with small tooth-coloured attachments placed where required. Each tray is worn for one to two weeks and removed only for eating and cleaning. Progress is monitored at regular review appointments, with adjustments made where clinically indicated.
3
Maintain Your Result
Once active treatment is complete, retainers are required to maintain tooth position. Without retention, teeth may gradually relapse. The appropriate retainer type, removable or fixed (bonded), and wear protocol are advised at completion.

Treatment Duration

Treatment duration varies by case and depends on the degree of tooth movement required, the number of aligners planned, and patient compliance with wear.

A more specific estimate is provided at the treatment planning stage, once digital scans are completed and the ClinCheck plan is generated. Refinement phases are common and form a normal part of treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions - Invisalign

How much does Invisalign cost in Singapore?
Fees at Misora depend on case complexity, the number of aligners required, and whether refinement is needed. A full case fee is provided after clinical assessment and review of the ClinCheck plan. Fees are quoted as exact amounts, not “from” ranges.
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, and the implant site remains numb throughout. Mild to moderate discomfort after the procedure is common and usually manageable with over-the-counter analgesics. What to expect will be explained before treatment.
Mild pressure or discomfort when switching to a new aligner tray is common and typically settles within a day or two. Persistent or significant discomfort should be reported. What to expect is explained at each stage before treatment begins.
No. Invisalign and orthodontic treatments are not Medisave-claimable.
Aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day. They are removed only for eating, drinking anything other than water, and oral hygiene. Inadequate wear affects tooth movement and may extend treatment duration.
Suitability depends on the type and severity of the orthodontic condition, as well as bite, bone structure, and dental history. Not all cases are suitable. Where fixed appliances provide better control, this is advised following a thorough assessment.
