What happens once my teeth have been aligned with Invisalign®?

At the end of the Invisalign® orthodontic treatment, we deliver retainers (or retainer trays), which must be worn at least overnight (or even every other night), to ensure that the achieved alignment lasts forever.

Caution. Never stop wearing the INVISALIGN® retainer trays completely, because teeth always tend to shift in the course of lifetime (even for people who have not worn braces).

The advantages of Invisalign® clear braces:

  • The Invisalign® treatment allows you to see a 3D visualisation of the expected teeth movements during treatment, so that you can have a preview of the expected end result;
  • The aligners are clear, so the braces will not be noticeable by others;
  • Invisalign® aligners are easy to clean;
  • Thanks to the removable aligners it is much easier to keep your teeth clean than with fixed braces;
  • Greater comfort for the mucous membranes of the mouth: fixed orthodontic braces can sometimes cause mouth ulcers due to contact between metal plates and oral mucous membranes;
  • You can eat anything you like: simply remove the braces at mealtimes. This is not possible with fixed orthodontic appliances;
  • If you have to attend an important event or take photos, you can remove your braces for a maximum of a couple of hours, excluding mealtimes;
  • If you are unable to visit the dentist for long periods (2-3 months), you can still continue your orthodontic treatment effectively, unlike with traditional braces;
  • Periodic check-up appointments are on average shorter than those for traditional orthodontic braces.

In which cases is an Invisalign® treatment NOT recommended?

  • If you do not think you will consistently wear your braces. The success of this orthodontic therapy depends on it.

As a general rule, the White Smile Milano orthodontist specialist will assess whether to proceed with Invisalign® or opt for a standard fixed orthodontic appliance.
