Clear Aligners – The Invisible Way to Achieve a Better Smile

Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic treatment designed to straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. At CityDent Istanbul, we provide customized clear aligner treatments that help improve the alignment of your teeth in a comfortable, discreet, and effective way.

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are transparent, custom-made trays that fit over your teeth and gradually move them into the desired position. Unlike traditional braces, they are nearly invisible, removable, and comfortable to wear.

We work with globally recognized systems including Invisalign and Orthero:

Invisalign

Invisalign is the most widely used aligner system worldwide. It offers high precision, predictable movement, and comfort through its SmartTrack material and digital monitoring system.

Orthero

Orthero is a popular aligner system developed in Germany and Turkey. It offers an effective and budget-friendly alternative with high-quality production and localized support.


Benefits of Clear Aligners

Discreet Appearance – Almost invisible when worn, perfect for adults and teens.

😌 Comfortable Fit – Smooth, flexible trays with no brackets or wires.

🧼 Removable Design – Eat, brush, and floss freely without restrictions.

🦷 Improved Oral Hygiene – Easier to clean teeth compared to fixed braces.

Most patients only need to visit the clinic 2–4 times during their entire aligner treatment. Initial scan, delivery of aligners, mid-treatment check, and final results can often be managed efficiently, especially for international patients.


Who Is a Candidate?

Clear aligners can be an excellent solution for many patients seeking a discreet and comfortable orthodontic treatment. Below is a clear breakdown of who may benefit from aligners—and who may not:

✅ Ideal Candidates:

➤ Individuals with mild to moderate crowding or spacing problems
➤ Patients with overbite, underbite, or crossbite
➤ Those who have experienced orthodontic relapse after braces
➤ People looking for an aesthetic, removable alternative to metal braces
➤ Adults and teens with good oral hygiene and healthy gum condition

🚫 Not Recommended For:

➤ Patients with severe skeletal or bite irregularities requiring complex orthodontic correction
➤ Individuals with untreated gum disease or active cavities
➤ Teeth that are too short or heavily restored (which may prevent proper aligner grip)
➤ Those unable to commit to wearing aligners for 20–22 hours per day

How the Treatment Works

Treatment starts with a digital scan of your teeth. Our orthodontists create a custom plan, and you receive a series of aligners that gradually shift your teeth. Each set is worn for about 1–2 weeks.

How long does it take? On average, treatment lasts 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of the case. Since every smile is unique, we recommend contacting us so we can assess your situation and give you a more accurate timeline.

How Often Should You Visit the Clinic?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

❓ How should I take care of my aligners?

To keep your aligners clean and clear, rinse them every time you remove them. Brush gently with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the plastic. You can also use special aligner cleaning tablets for deeper cleaning. Always store your aligners in their case when not in use to prevent damage or loss.

❓ Do clear aligners affect speech?

Some patients may notice a slight lisp when they first begin wearing aligners, but this usually disappears within a few days as the tongue adapts.

❓ Are clear aligners safe for teenagers?

Yes, clear aligners are suitable for responsible teenagers. Invisalign even offers a special line called Invisalign Teen, designed specifically for growing patients.

❓ How do I clean my aligners?

Aligners should be rinsed with lukewarm water and brushed gently with a soft toothbrush. Avoid hot water as it can warp the plastic.

❓ Will I need a retainer after treatment?

Yes, wearing a retainer after your clear aligner treatment helps maintain the results and prevent your teeth from shifting back.
