What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a set of invisible aligners made of safe, high-quality material. The aligners are custom-made for each individual patient and are designed to gradually move the teeth into the desired position. Invisalign is an alternative to traditional braces and many patients prefer it because it is less visible and more comfortable to wear. Treatment time depends on the diagnosis and is not automatically shorter than with fixed braces.
The latest 3D technology allows us to create your aligners based on a digital treatment plan catered to you, which is created by orthodontist Dr. Gordana Čižmek, who has more than 10 years of experience in the field of orthodontics at OrthoDental.
The Invisible aligners are then used at home according to an individual schedule, commonly every 7–14 days. In-person reviews are scheduled according to clinical need and may be supported by Virtual Care. Would you like to know the procedure for the examination and fabrication of Invisalign? Keep reading.
How does Invisalign work?
https://youtu.be/d6XhteWvVhU
Orthodontic treatment with Invisalign invisible aligners usually lasts between 9 and 15 months. Invisalign works by using custom-made clear dental aligners to gradually align the teeth. It works by the user replacing the aligner with a new aligner every 1 to 2 weeks. Each aligner is designed to apply gentle pressure to the teeth and gradually move them into the desired position. As the treatment progresses, the aligners become tighter and tighter to achieve the desired results in a short time. Invisalign is an effective way to improve the appearance of your smile and achieve straighter teeth.

Are invisible aligners suitable for everyone?
Invisalign is a popular choice for adults, teenagers, and children who want to achieve a beautiful smile without visible metallic braces. For adults and teenagers, the number of aligners and the treatment time varies depending on the complexity of the treatment.
However, for children, it is recommended that they have their first visit to the orthodontist by the age of 7, which is also the right time to start orthodontic treatment with Invisalign First if necessary. This system is used when all the milk teeth have not yet fallen out and all the permanent teeth have not yet grown in. In the next stage, the use of the conventional Invisalign aligners can be continued to achieve the final desired state in the child.
4 key benefits of the Invisalign treatment
- Unlike traditional dental braces, Invisalign is practically invisible, making it a popular choice for adults and teenagers who want to be more confident with their appearance.
- One of the important advantages of Invisalign is that the aligners are removable, which means you can take them out for eating, brushing, and flossing. As a result, you as the wearer can maintain good oral hygiene during treatment.
- An additional advantage of Invisalign is that it is generally more comfortable than traditional dental braces. Because the aligners are made of smooth and health-friendly plastic, they are less irritating to the gums and cheeks.
- Treatment duration is individually planned and varies according to the diagnosis, biological response and consistent wear.

Invisalign instead of dental braces for children
Invisalign is a replacement for dental braces and may be suitable for selected children in the mixed-dentition stage after an individual specialist assessment. At OrthoDental, even the youngest members of the family, who surely know our Gordana from TikTok, can receive carefully planned orthodontic treatment with timing based on dental development and without pain. Suitability and timing are decided from dental development, the bite and the child’s ability to wear the aligners consistently.

Is Invisalign cheaper in neighbouring countries?
Invisalign prices are roughly the same for all providers, with slight variations. Nevertheless, it is very important to make a decision based on the quality and good references of the provider. We have more than 10 years of experience in orthodontics and excellent references that confirm both satisfaction with the result and the overall treatment. It is important that you receive expert advice and are properly guided to your goal, and that you can get answers to any questions you may have at any time.
What about other invisible dental aligners?
While there are several different options for invisible aligners, such as Spark, Clear Correct, and others, Invisalign is undoubtedly the leader in terms of effectiveness and patient satisfaction. Invisalign uses cutting-edge 3D technology to create a custom treatment plan for each individual user. This means that each patient receives a unique set of aligners that are specifically designed to move their teeth into the desired position. Spark, ClearCorrect and other established systems also use custom-made aligners; the important differences are the planning platform, available clinical tools, provider experience and ongoing supervision.
Treatment is over, will my teeth stay aligned?
One of the most common questions patients have is whether their teeth will stay aligned after treatment. The good news is that Invisalign is an effective way to align teeth and achieve lasting results. But as after any major life change, it’s important to maintain some of the routines that helped you get results. In this regard, it’s important to consistently wear Vivera by Invisalign maintenance splints every night after you’ve finished using Invisalign to help keep your teeth in place. If you follow your orthodontist’s instructions, consistent retention significantly reduces the risk of relapse, although no orthodontic result can be guaranteed to remain unchanged for life.
Flexible payment for Invisalign treatment
Invisalign is a long-term health and aesthetic investment. With eligible Leanpay financing, the agreed treatment cost can be divided into up to 84 monthly instalments, subject to approval and the provider’s conditions.

Frequently asked questions:
Are invisible aligners suitable for everyone?
Suitability depends on the diagnosis, bite, dental and gum health, growth and the ability to wear aligners consistently. Invisalign may be appropriate for adults, teenagers and selected children, but an individual specialist assessment is required.
What is the price of Invisalign treatment?
The price of Invisalign depends on the complexity and duration of the treatment but generally ranges from €2,500 for Invisalign Small in both arches to €4,000 for Comprehensive treatment in both arches; very complex treatment may add €1,000–€2,000.
How often do I need to change my invisible aligners?
Invisible aligners should be replaced every 1 to 2 weeks according to the instructions given to you by your orthodontist.
How many hours a day do I have to wear Invisalign?
Invisalign should be worn as directed by your orthodontist, usually for 22 hours a day. The rest of the time is dedicated to eating, as it is necessary to remove the aligners during eating. It should also be removed during oral hygiene.
Is Invisalign treatment faster than traditional dental braces?
Not necessarily. Duration depends on the diagnosis, selected appliance, planned movements and cooperation. A personalised estimate is given after assessment and may change according to the clinical response.
Invisalign invisible aligners, like traditional dental braces, work by applying pressure to the teeth to move them into position. You may experience temporary discomfort when you first start wearing aligners and later when you change them, but it is certainly less than with traditional dental braces.
Can I eat with an invisible aligner?
No, it is recommended to remove Invisalign when you are eating. Any food can stain Invisalign, but more dangerously, it can damage it. So you will need to adjust some of your habits, for example, it is not advisable to sip coffee slowly throughout the morning or to eat snacks all the time. You should take the splints off before each meal and put them back on afterward. Drinking water is allowed while wearing Invisalign.
Can I drink with an invisible aligner?
Yes, drinking water is allowed in unlimited quantities even while wearing Invisalign, while consuming other beverages is recommended only without aligners.
How soon will my teeth be aligned?
Usually, orthodontic treatment with Invisalign is successfully completed within 9 to 15 months, but the treatment time depends on the initial condition of your teeth and the complexity of the treatment.
Should I sleep with the aligners in?
Yes, you can wear Invisalign at night while you sleep. It is recommended to wear it for as long as possible, ideally 22 hours a day.
Consistency is essential when choosing Invisalign to achieve success and the desired end result. You should take this into account when making your decision and stick to the recommended wearing time. If consistent aligner wear is unlikely, aligners may not be suitable. OrthoDental does not fit fixed braces; we will explain alternatives and referral options where appropriate.
How do I clean my teeth when wearing Invisalign?
Invisalign is designed to completely envelop your teeth, so it’s essential to brush and floss thoroughly after every meal. This prevents inflammation that could be caused by food particles trapped between your teeth, gums and Invisalign.
When will I see the first results?
Invisalign moves faster than traditional braces, so you’ll see the first results after just two or three months of wear.
Is Invisalign really invisible?
Yes, almost no one will really notice Invisalign. However, it is essential to make sure that you follow your orthodontist’s instructions and use it as directed, as it needs to be cleaned regularly and removed between meals. Food and some drinks can stain the plastic that Invisalign is made of.
What are the benefits of wearing Invisalign?
There are many benefits of wearing Invisalign. The most important are:
– a flawless smile in a short time,
– comfortable treatment,
– easily removable aligners,
– easy cleaning,
– a precise time for the duration of your treatment is defined,
– also suitable for people with metal allergies,
– the possibility to practice contact sports,
– smooth playing of musical instruments.
The aligners gradually move the teeth into their correct position with light, controlled forces. The big difference between traditional dental braces and aligners is that the latter control the forces on the tooth. At each stage, the tooth movement is digitally planned. This creates a controlled sequence, but treatment is not automatically faster than fixed braces in every diagnosis.
Can I correct malocclusion (incorrect bite) with Invisalign?
Yes, aligners not only align the teeth but also ensure a correct bite.
Is there an age limit for wearing Invisalign?
Age alone does not determine suitability. Invisalign may be used for adults and selected children, but dental development, gum health, diagnosis and cooperation must be assessed individually.
Can the aligners be easily removed and installed?
Yes, you will be able to easily remove and reinstall the aligners without any additional help or tools.
Can I smoke while using Invisalign?
It is important to remember that tobacco affects the color of teeth and can also cause staining of the aligners, making them no longer invisible.
Does Invisalign affect my speech?
A slight temporary lisp can occur while the tongue adapts. It usually improves with normal speaking and consistent wear, but individual experience varies.
No. Invisalign can treat many simple and complex cases, but some skeletal problems, impacted teeth and other movements may require fixed appliances, surgery or a combined approach.
Can I play football while using Invisalign?
Yes, you can use Invisalign for all contact sports, as instructed by your orthodontist.
I have gum disease. Can I still wear Invisalign?
Yes, if we obtain a favorable report from a periodontist.
Will I need to wear aligners at the end of my treatment?
In any orthodontic treatment, whatever technique we use, we always end up using aligners to prevent your teeth from moving in the future.
What material are the aligners made of?
The aligners are made of a biocompatible, high-strength, medical-grade thermoplastic material. They are custom-made and fit perfectly to your teeth.
How often do I need to change my aligners?
Usually every 7 to 14 days, depending on the tooth movement to be carried out.
I don’t like my facial profile. Can I improve it with Invisalign?
Yes, Invisalign can improve the profile of your lips and chin.
If Invisalign really works, why don’t celebrities wear it?
Just because you don’t see them doesn’t mean they don’t wear them! Remember that aligners are practically invisible. Many celebrities have worn them, including Tom Cruise, Justin Bieber, Nicolas Cage.
