Each treatment case is unique and depends on your current dental and bite situation. During the visit, the doctor will assess how long your treatment will take while following the appropriate treatment guidelines. Typically, patients wear aligners for 8 to 20 months.
What is orthodontic treatment with aligners?
Aligner treatment is a modern, comfortable, and effective solution for straightening teeth. The aligners are nearly invisible removable orthodontic devices made from soft, transparent medical-grade plastic. They are designed to straighten teeth and correct misaligned bites efficiently, comfortably, and painlessly. By gently applying pressure, the aligners push the teeth into a predetermined desired position. To ensure that the teeth continually move towards the goal, patients need to change the aligners for new ones, typically every two weeks.

When is orthodontic treatment applied?
Orthodontic treatment is used when a patient has crooked teeth, a bad bite, or large gaps between teeth. Orthodontic treatment is not only for aesthetic purposes; in some cases, it helps restore impaired speech, swallowing, and chewing functions and prevents future issues.
Advantages of aligners:
Aligners are barely noticeable, making them a discreet option for adults.
They do not cause pain, irritate the gums, or scratch the cheeks and lips.
Treatment with aligners is often quicker and requires fewer visits to the dentist.
Patients can remove aligners when needed, for example, on special occasions.
People wearing aligners do not have to change their daily habits. They can eat their favorite foods and continue with regular sports activities.
Aligners do not complicate overall oral hygiene.

02
Who is aligner treatment suitable for?

03
Is aligner treatment more expensive than braces?
Due to different pricing structures, aligner treatment may seem more expensive than braces, but this is not necessarily true. With braces, you usually only pay for the initial application, and all follow-up visits and brace removal will cost extra. Therefore, you can only calculate the final cost of braces treatment after completing the treatment. With aligners, it is common to pay the full amount upfront, as the doctor can accurately predict the course, duration, and cost of aligner treatment.

04
Is orthognathic treatment possible while wearing aligners?
Treatment is possible, but an individual evaluation of the situation is necessary. Otherwise, orthognathic treatment with dental braces is recommended.
