What is invisalign?
Invisalign is a clear aligner brand that has been available since 1998. Unlike conventional braces, Invisalign aligners are designed to be discreet, using clear plastic trays that gradually move teeth closer to the treatment plan’s intended alignment. The process involves periodic replacement of the aligners, typically every 1–2 weeks.

What are the conditions that invisalign can treat?
Invisalign can treat the following conditions:
- Open bite
- Overcrowding of teeth
- Tooth gaps
- Mild underbites, crossbites, and/or overbites
- Mild teeth protrusion
- Mildly crooked or rotated teeth

How does the invisalign treatment process work?
Length of invisalign treatment
Invisalign’s official website states that the average treatment time ranges from 12 to 18 months. However, the length of the treatment ultimately depends on factors such as the complexity of the dental alignment issues being addressed, the patient’s age, and adherence to the dentist’s recommendations.
K Family Dental advises patients to wear their Invisalign aligners for the duration recommended by their dentist each day, typically only removing them while eating or drinking. Following the prescribed usage guidelines is essential, as not doing so may impact the progress of the treatment.
If you get your Invisalign aligner tray replaced every 1 – 2 weeks during a treatment that lasts for 15 months, you’ll need 33 – 65 aligner trays. The number will differ based on the treatment length and how often your dentist recommends you to get the aligner trays replaced.
Invisalign’s official website states that the average treatment time ranges from 12 – 18 months. However, the length of the treatment will ultimately boil down to factors such as the dental issues that you’re trying to address through the treatment, your age, and whether you’re following the dentist’s instructions.
At K Family Dental, we recommend wearing Invisalign aligners for the maximum time each day, except during meals or when drinking beverages other than water. Following the instructions provided by your K Family dentist is crucial for achieving the best possible outcomes. Deviating from these instructions may prolong the overall treatment time.
For example, if your Invisalign aligners are replaced every 1 – 2 weeks during a 15-month treatment plan, you may require between 33 and 65 aligner trays. The exact number will vary based on the length of your treatment and your dentist’s specific recommendations.
