How Long and How Much?
| Case | Plan | Typical time | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Slightly crooked or small gaps | Invisalign Lite | 3–6 months | ₹1,20,000 – ₹1,60,000 |
| Moderate crowding | Invisalign Moderate | 6–12 months | ₹1,60,000 – ₹2,20,000 |
| Crowding with bite problems | Invisalign Comprehensive | 12–24 months | ₹2,20,000 – ₹3,50,000 |
Yes. Invisalign clear aligners straighten teeth without brackets or wires. They are removable trays changed every 1–2 weeks, and they handle most crowding, spacing and many bite problems.
For mild crookedness, Invisalign Lite can finish in 3–6 months. Veneers change appearance in 2–3 visits but don't actually move teeth, and they need enamel removal, so they're not a substitute for alignment when the bite is off.
Mail-order aligner kits exist, but without an in-person exam, X-rays and check-ups, problems such as gum recession or bite changes can go unnoticed. We recommend in-clinic treatment with an orthodontist.
Many adults straighten teeth for appearance, easier cleaning, and less uneven wear. With healthy gums there's no upper age limit — our patients include people in their 50s.
With Invisalign at The Dental Specialists, from ₹1,20,000 for mild cases up to ₹3,50,000 for complex ones, with 0% EMI for up to 24 months.
