Invisalign in Gurgaon
Invisalign straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners - no metal, no wires, no one needs to know you're in treatment. Aligners come out for eating and brushing, so life continues as normal.
Treatment is digitally planned from a 3D scan of your teeth, so you can preview your final smile before you begin.
Invisalign moves teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners, each worn for one to two weeks and each slightly different from the last. A digital scan produces a plan showing the sequence of movements before you start - so you see the intended endpoint, and roughly how long it will take, at the outset.
The appeal is obvious for adults: nobody notices them, you take them out to eat, and cleaning your teeth stays normal. The catch is equally simple and worth being honest about - they only work while they are in your mouth. Twenty to twenty-two hours a day is the requirement, and the treatment stalls if that slips. Fixed braces work whether you are motivated or not; aligners hand the responsibility to you.
Not every case suits aligners. Severe crowding, significant bite discrepancies and some rotations are handled better and faster with fixed braces. A scan and an assessment tell you which category you fall into, and we would rather say so than start a treatment that will disappoint you.

What to expect
- 01
Consultation and scan
A 3D scan replaces messy impressions and maps your current alignment.
- 02
Treatment plan
Your tooth movements are planned digitally; you preview the result.
- 03
Wear your aligners
Each set is worn about two weeks, 20-22 hours a day, gently moving teeth in sequence.
- 04
Retention
A retainer keeps your new smile in place after treatment.
How long it takes
Simple cases take around six months; average cases twelve to eighteen. Reviews are typically every six to eight weeks, which is fewer appointments than fixed braces need.
What it costs
Aligner cost depends on how many aligners the case needs, so it is quoted after the scan and plan rather than as a flat figure. Retainers afterwards are a separate and necessary cost - we include them in the estimate so it is not a surprise.
Get a written estimateAfterwards
What the next few days actually look like, so nothing comes as a surprise.
- Wear each aligner 20 to 22 hours a day; take them out only to eat and drink anything other than water
- Rinse them each time they come out, and brush before putting them back in
- Expect two or three days of pressure with each new aligner - that is the tooth moving
- Wear retainers afterwards, indefinitely at night. Teeth drift back, and this is the single most common regret
Frequently asked questions
How long does Invisalign take?
Mild cases can finish in 6 months; typical cases take 12-18 months. Your digital plan gives an accurate estimate upfront.
Is Invisalign as effective as braces?
For most alignment problems, yes. Complex bite corrections may still be better served by fixed braces - we advise honestly at your consultation.
Does Invisalign hurt?
You may feel gentle pressure for a day or two with each new aligner set - a sign the treatment is working. It is far milder than the soreness of wire adjustments.
Will it affect my speech?
There may be a slight lisp for the first few days while your tongue adapts. It passes and is rarely noticeable to others.
Can I eat with them in?
No - remove them to eat and to drink anything except water. Hot drinks warp the plastic and staining drinks discolour it.
Is it as effective as braces?
For the right cases, yes. For severe crowding or significant bite correction, fixed braces are more predictable. The assessment tells you which yours is.
What if I lose one?
Go back to the previous aligner and contact us. Do not skip ahead to the next one - the sequence matters.
