How long does treatment with invisible orthodontic aligners last?
The duration of orthodontic treatment depends on several factors:
- Degree of malocclusion
- Type of treatment chosen
- Discipline of the patient to attend check-ups.
- Whether or not dental extractions are performed, among others
In general, orthodontic treatments with conventional braces usually last between 18 and 36 months, compared to this, treatments with clear aligners can be reduced to 12 and 24 months.
Invisible orthodontic treatment usually lasts less time because of the planning that technology allows us, which makes it possible to apply force just in the right teeth so movement can occur effectively.

FAQ
How to take care of your aligners?
How are aligners placed in the mouth correctly?
- We must place the aligner from back to front (first we will fit it on the molars and then on the front teeth). In those cases in which the front teeth are very inclined towards the front, we will do it the other way around: first we will fit the front teeth and then the back sectors.
- Never force the aligner, put it in and take it out carefully so as not to deform it.
- Do not worry if the first two or three days you notice a slight “lisp” when speaking with the aligners in place. It will disappear as soon as the tongue gets used to it.
- The first few days you may also notice a slight discomfort in your teeth
when you remove the aligner, but don’t worry, it will disappear as soon as
your teeth get accustomed to movement.
When should the aligners be cleaned?
- Aligners should be cleaned each time they are removed.
- It is not necessary to remove the aligner if you are only going to drink cold water, but never drink hot water with them in. Remove them for other beverages such as juice, coffee, milk, etc.
How long should I keep the aligners on?
- It is recommended to keep the aligners on for at least 22 hours a day.
- If you smoke with the aligners in place, there is a risk that they will darken and stain, giving a dark and unsightly appearance to the smile. The best thing to do is to remove the aligners before smoking, then brush your teeth and put them back on.
How to store the aligners?
- Store your aligners in a cool, dry place.
- To avoid loss or deterioration of the aligners, the best way to keep them in good condition is to store them in the original box in which they were delivered.
- Every time you take them off, leave them in their box. If you leave them in your pockets, wrapped in a napkin, you run the risk of losing them.
- If you have a pet, take special care to keep your retainer inside the cases. Pets are attracted to these types of items.
