Invisible Aligners Available in Anelog

For patients who prioritise discretion, clear aligners are an effective alternative to traditional braces. They are especially popular with adults and older teenagers in Anelog who don't want visible metal. A digital treatment plan maps every stage, and you step through the trays in sequence over the course. The technique works best for mild-to-moderate cases in an otherwise healthy mouth.

How Clear Aligners Work

A good outcome rests on three things: a sound digital plan, precisely made trays, and consistent wear. Orthodontists in Anelog model each tooth's path stage by stage before a single tray is produced.

Wear time matters above all else: 20–22 hours per day. Attachments — small tooth-coloured bumps bonded to certain teeth — help the trays grip for trickier movements like rotations.

Review appointments in Anelog are typically every 6–12 weeks. At each visit the clinician checks progress and hands over the next trays; some practices add app-based remote monitoring to cut in-person visits.

Clear aligner process — Anelog patient guide

Clear aligner treatment follows a structured sequence from first assessment to long-term retention. In Anelog, it's the difference between choosing on price and choosing on value. Each stage below has its own timeline and clinical requirements.

Stage 1 — Initial Assessment

In Anelog the first move is an assessment, remote or in person — photos give an early read on suitability before you spend anything, while an in-person exam adds X-rays, a bite and gum check and a scan, settling both whether aligners fit and how complex the case is.
