Invisalign Clear Aligners

Invisalign clear aligner orthodontic treatment planned using Digital Smile Design and ClinCheck 3D simulation, with monitoring every 6–8 weeks. Average treatment 20–30 months.

Elite Dental Singapore offers Invisalign clear aligner treatment as part of its cosmetic and restorative dental portfolio. Invisalign uses a series of custom-fabricated, removable clear plastic aligners to progressively move teeth into their target position — an aesthetically discreet alternative to traditional fixed braces. The treatment planning process at Elite Dental integrates Digital Smile Design and Invisalign's proprietary ClinCheck 3D simulation software, allowing patients to see a projected digital preview of their end result before any aligners are ordered. The clinical assessment begins with photographs, impressions or digital scans, and X-rays to map the current dental anatomy and design the movement sequence. Attachments (small tooth-coloured composite bumps) are bonded to certain teeth to enable more precise tooth movements. Patients wear each aligner set for the prescribed duration before progressing to the next, with review appointments every 6–8 weeks to monitor progress and make adjustments. Aligners must be worn 20–22 hours per day for treatment to remain on schedule; the flexibility to remove them for eating, drinking, and cleaning is a key advantage over fixed braces. Treatment duration at Elite Dental averages 20–30 months — longer than typical North American or European timelines, which the clinic attributes to local orthodontic case characteristics. Upon completion, retainers are provided to maintain the corrected positions.
