Orthodontics without traditional braces
Invisalign
With Invisalign® you can achieve a beautiful smile without traditional fixed braces. If you are thinking about straightening your teeth, Invisalign® may be the best solution.
What is Invisalign®?
Clear aligners were developed by Align Technology together with leading orthodontists in 1997. With the Invisalign® method, teeth are straightened using several sets of aligners tailored to each individual patient. Invisalign aligners are comfortable, transparent and easy to remove. It is a new smile without sacrifices. Over 2.5 million people have already discovered Invisalign®.
Invisalign aligners…
- are comfortable and almost invisible,
- move the teeth gently and evenly,
- are replaced with a new set roughly every two weeks,
- can be removed briefly for eating, brushing and flossing, or for special occasions.
Cases that can be treated with Invisalign®

- gaps between teeth,
- crossbite,
- deep bite,
- underbite.
Consult our specialist to determine whether the Invisalign® system is right for you.
How does Invisalign® treatment work?
Treatment takes about 9-18 months. After that time a new, more beautiful smile will appear on your face. Five simple steps lead to this goal:
- Meet and talk about treatment with our Certified Invisalign® Doctor.
- Based on the treatment plan prepared by the Invisalign Doctor and the patient's dental records, a three-dimensional visualisation of the treatment results is created. It lets you see how the teeth will move into the desired position.
- Once the patient and doctor approve the treatment plan, aligners made just for that patient are produced. The total number of aligners depends on the individual case.
- The aligners should be worn about 20-22 hours a day, removed only for meals, brushing and flossing, or for special occasions.
- On average every two weeks the patient changes the aligners for a new set. The aligners gradually move the teeth towards the desired position.
Benefits of the Invisalign® method
The Invisalign® system uses custom-made, comfortable aligners that give the patient more than just a new, beautiful smile.
- The aligners are transparent, so hardly anyone will notice that you are undergoing orthodontic treatment.
- The aligners are removable, so maintaining proper oral hygiene involves no extra difficulty.
- You can take the aligners out yourself while eating and drinking or in special situations.
- The final result of the orthodontic treatment and the wearing time are known even before treatment begins.
How much does Invisalign® orthodontics cost?
As with conventional orthodontics, the cost of treatment depends on the complexity of the malocclusion and the course of the treatment itself. The doctor can determine the total cost of treatment for a specific patient and case; as a guide, the cost of Invisalign® treatment is usually between PLN 15,000 and 20,000.
