Invisalign – “Contact Lenses” for Teeth – What’s the experience like?

Last Updated on March 16, 2025

May 3, 2013

If you haven’t heard of it, Invisalign is the latest technology in orthodontics. Invisalign are clear, removable aligners that are an alternative to traditional metal braces . They are custom designed and customized for each patient using 3-D imaging software so you can be sure the aligners you get are tailored to your teeth.

With this latest technology, orthodontists are able to show patients a computer simulation of the movement of teeth from the beginning of treatment to the end result. It is certainly interesting to visualize how someone with protruding, crooked or gapped teeth will be transformed into having straight teeth with a beautiful smile.

The aesthetic benefits of Invisalign treatment are very appealing. Many patients are eager and excited about their Invisalign treatment because they can see their teeth gradually moving… without anyone noticing (since Invisalign aligners are clear and nearly invisible – analogous to “contact lenses” for teeth).

With Invisalign, you can continue with your normal routine – you can eat and drink without the dietary restrictions of removing your aligners when eating or brushing your teeth. You only feel tightness/pressure on your teeth when you first switch to a new set of aligners, just like after your monthly metal braces adjustment. This is great because you know your teeth are moving in the right direction and on schedule!

Unlike traditional metal braces, this set of aligners also does not have wire brackets that can cause friction in the mouth, leading to canker sores or abrasions in the oral cavity. It is highly recommended that you wear your aligners for a minimum of 20 hours per day (excluding meal times) and this is easy to achieve.

Additionally, many Invisalign wearers find themselves snacking less due to the hassle of brushing and putting their aligners back on after a snack. This means you can lose weight at the same time and look your best in the physical world too!

Specialist Dental Group (SDG) has Platinum Elite Invisalign orthodontists, a status that recognises experienced doctors who perform a high volume of Invisalign cases. Dr Eugene Chan , also known as the “Invisalign Guru” trains dentists and orthodontists in Singapore and the region, and he has been awarded Platinum Elite status for many years as one of the most experienced Invisalign orthodontists in Singapore. Dr Mei Ling Eide and the rest of the dental team at Specialist Dental Group are also accredited for Invisalign and are happy to help you achieve the smile of your dreams.
