How Invisalign Works — Step by Step

  1. 1

    3D Scan & Treatment Plan

    20–30 minutes

    Your dentist captures a 3D scan of your mouth using an intraoral scanner (no messy moulds). The scan is uploaded to Invisalign's software, which generates a digital roadmap showing exactly how your teeth will move. You'll see a preview of your final smile before treatment starts.

  2. 2

    Custom Aligners Arrive

    1 week for delivery after approval

    Invisalign manufactures your personalized aligner sets (typically 10–40+ trays depending on complexity). Each aligner is worn for 1–2 weeks. Your dentist provides a schedule and shows you how to insert and remove them without damaging the attachments (small composite bumps on your teeth that help aligners grip).

  3. 3

    Daily Wear & Compliance

    6–24 months ongoing

    You must wear aligners 20–22 hours daily, removing them only to eat, drink (except water), and brush. Most adults find it easier than expected once they establish a routine. Store aligners in their case when not wearing to prevent loss or damage.

  4. 4

    Progress Check-Ups

    15 minutes per visit

    Visit your Serangoon dentist every 6–8 weeks for brief reviews. They'll check that teeth are tracking to plan, reassure you about attachment visibility (they fade into the background), and troubleshoot any discomfort. No adjustments needed—the aligners do all the work.

  5. 5

    Refinement & Retainer Fitting

    3–6 weeks for refinements; retainer fitting 30 minutes

    Once your main series finishes, some patients need 1–2 refinement sets to fine-tune the bite. Your dentist fits a permanent bonded retainer on the back of lower front teeth and provides removable retainers (Vivera or Hawley) to wear nightly forever, preventing relapse.

Total timeline: 6–24 months for active treatment, plus lifelong retention to maintain results

Is Invisalign Right for You? Honest Assessment

Good candidates

  • Adults with mild to severe crowding or spacing issues who value discretion and can commit to 20–22 hours daily wear.
  • Professionals, public figures, or anyone in customer-facing roles who can't afford the social visibility of metal braces.
  • Patients with strong oral hygiene (brush and floss daily) and the discipline to follow wearing schedules—non-compliance is the #1 reason for poor results.
  • Adults who've completed growth (age 18+) and have no uncontrolled periodontal disease; healthy gums and stable bone support are essential.

May need extra assessment

  • Severe bite issues (deep overbite, underbite, or open bite) may need braces or a hybrid approach; book a consultation at Dr Mike Teoh or Royce Dental to confirm your case suitability.
  • Patients with heavy crowding or rotated back teeth might benefit from a brief 'pre-Invisalign' braces phase (3–6 months) to create space; your dentist will advise.
  • Those with existing dental work (crowns, implants, or severe decay) require a custom plan; some teeth may not move predictably, and decay must be treated first.
