Invisalign: Clear, Comfortable, and Modern Teeth Straightening at Desh Dental
Straighten your teeth without the look or discomfort of traditional braces
If you want straighter teeth without the look or discomfort of traditional braces, Invisalign offers one of the most advanced, discreet, and effective orthodontic treatments available today. Using custom-made clear aligners, Invisalign gradually shifts your teeth into the ideal position—giving you a confident, beautiful smile with minimal interruption to your lifestyle.
At Desh Dental in Whitby and Danforth (Toronto), we offer Invisalign for teens and adults looking for a comfortable, removable, and nearly invisible alternative to metal braces. This guide explains everything you need to know, including how Invisalign works, benefits, cost, timeline, and what to expect at your appointment.
What Is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses a series of custom, clear aligners to straighten teeth over time. The aligners are made from BPA-free SmartTrack material, designed for comfort and precise tooth movement.
Each set of aligners is worn for about 1–2 weeks before moving to the next stage, slowly improving alignment until you reach your final smile.
What Problems Can Invisalign Fix?
Invisalign is effective for treating:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Crossbite
- Open bite
- Mild to moderate misalignment
- Relapse from previous orthodontic treatment
During your consultation, our dentist will evaluate whether Invisalign is the right option for your specific case.
Benefits of Invisalign
Invisalign offers several advantages over traditional metal braces:
- Nearly Invisible
No metal brackets or wires—perfect for adults and teens who want a discreet solution. - Comfortable to Wear
Smooth plastic aligners reduce irritation and are customized for your mouth. - Removable
Eat, brush, and floss normally. No dietary restrictions. - Fewer Dental Visits
Aligners are replaced at home; check-ins are quick and infrequent. - Predictable Results
Digital scanning and 3D treatment planning show your smile transformation before you begin. - Safe for Everyday Life
No metal components to cause injury during sports or daily activities.
How Invisalign Treatment Works at Desh Dental
Here's what to expect during your Invisalign journey:
- Consultation & 3D Scan
We start with a full examination and Trios 3D scan to map your teeth digitally. No messy impressions. - Custom Treatment Plan
Using advanced software, your dentist designs a step-by-step movement plan and shows you a preview of your final smile. - Aligners Fabrication
Your custom aligners are created specifically for the shape and movement needs of your teeth. - Wearing Your Aligners
Wear aligners 20–22 hours per day, removing only to eat, drink (except water), and brush. - Regular Check-ins
Appointments every 6–8 weeks to ensure progress and receive new aligner sets. - Retainers
After treatment, retainers help maintain your newly aligned smile.
How Long Does Invisalign Take?
Most Invisalign treatments take:
- 6–12 months for mild cases
- 12–18 months for moderate cases
- 18–24 months for more complex alignment issues
Your exact timeline depends on your individual dental needs and compliance.
Does Invisalign Hurt?
Invisalign is significantly more comfortable than metal braces. Some patients experience mild pressure or tightness for the first 1–2 days of each aligner set—this is normal and shows the aligners are working.
Most patients report minimal discomfort during treatment.
