Invisalign Clear Braces

John has been treating patients with Invisalign since 2006. His first case was actually himself! The technology has evolved over the last 2 decades and has proved to be a very effective way of aligning teeth without the need for extractions or fixed braces. The only glaringly obvious drawback is that patients can take them out as they are removable! Hence, patient compliance is the main prerequisite for successful orthodontic treatment. The average wear time is 6-9 months but the braces, which are changed weekly, must be worn for 22 hours a day. That means they are only taken out to eat and when you clean your teeth!
