What Is Invisalign® and How Does It Work?
Invisalign® clear aligners are a modern alternative to braces designed to straighten your teeth comfortably and discreetly. Made from SmartTrack® BPA-free plastic, they are thin, flexible, and virtually invisible.
Unlike traditional braces, there are no wires or brackets, just smooth, removable aligners that blend in naturally with your smile.
How Invisalign® Works?
Each aligner set is custom-made using advanced 3D imaging. They apply gentle, continuous pressure to guide your teeth into the right position according to your dentist’s digital treatment plan. You’ll switch to a new set of aligners every 1–2 weeks, with each set making small, precise adjustments until your smile is aligned.
Because multiple aligners are prepared in advance, you’ll enjoy fewer in-office visits compared to traditional braces, saving you both time and hassle.
Your Invisalign® Journey
Here’s what you can expect during your Invisalign® journey at our Burnaby clinic. We’ll guide you through every stage so you always know what’s next and feel confident in the process.
Step 1
Consultation
Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation. Our Invisalign® provider will examine your teeth and bite, listen to your smile goals, and explain whether Invisalign® is the best option for you. This is your chance to ask questions and explore your treatment possibilities.
Step 2
Records & Digital Impressions
If you decide to move forward, we'll take detailed digital scans, photos, and x-rays of your teeth and gums. These records are used to create an exact 3D model, eliminating the need for messy traditional impressions.
Step 3
Custom Treatment Plan
Using advanced Invisalign® software, we design a step-by-step plan that shows how your teeth will shift over time. You'll even be able to preview a simulation of your future smile before treatment starts.
Step 4
Aligner Production
Once you approve your plan, your custom aligners are manufactured with Invisalign's SmartTrack® material. They're designed to fit snugly and comfortably while remaining virtually invisible.
Step 5
Wearing Your Aligners
You'll wear each set for 20–22 hours a day, removing them only to brush or floss. We encourage patients to eat with the trays in to help improve aligner engagement and accelerate tooth movement. After enjoying your meal, you can remove the trays to rinse both your mouth and the trays, ensuring that any food particles or residue are eliminated. Every 1–2 weeks, you'll switch to a new set of aligners that makes small, precise adjustments to your teeth.
Step 6
Follow-Ups
To make sure your progress is on track, we'll schedule check-ins about every 6–8 weeks. These visits are shorter and less frequent than with braces, giving you more flexibility and fewer interruptions to your schedule.
Step 7
Completion & Retainers
Once your teeth have reached their ideal position, you'll transition to retainers to help maintain your results. This final step is essential to keep your smile straight and healthy for the long term.

Invisalign® vs Braces
Here’s what you can expect during your Invisalign® journey at our Burnaby clinic. We’ll guide you through every stage so you always know what’s next and feel confident in the process.
| Feature | Invisalign® | Braces |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Invisalign® aligners are virtually invisible. You can smile, speak, and take photos without feeling self-conscious. | Braces use bulky metal wires and brackets that are hard to hide. |
| Comfort | Invisalign® is made with smooth SmartTrack® plastic designed for comfort. No painful wire adjustments, no sharp edges, and no irritation to your cheeks or gums. | Braces often cause soreness and can break, leading to emergency visits. |
| Freedom to Eat and Drink | Invisalign® aligners let you maintain flexibility at mealtime. Patients can eat comfortably with the trays in, which helps improve tray engagement and treatment progress. Unlike braces, which restrict sticky or hard foods, Invisalign® allows you to enjoy your regular diet without the limitations or discomfort of brackets and wires. | Braces restrict sticky or hard foods and can be uncomfortable during meals. |
| Easy Oral Care | Invisalign® lets you brush and floss normally by removing your aligners. | With braces, cleaning around wires and brackets is more difficult and increases the risk of plaque buildup. |
| Fewer Dental Visits | Invisalign® checkups are quick and usually every 6–8 weeks. | Braces require more frequent adjustments and can lead to unexpected visits if wires or brackets break. |
| Treatment Time | Both treatments can take 12–24 months depending on the case, but many mild to moderate Invisalign® cases finish faster — with fewer interruptions to your lifestyle. | Similar timeframe but with more frequent office visits. |
While braces are effective, Invisalign® gives you the same results with far more comfort, flexibility, and discretion. It’s orthodontics designed for modern life, so you can straighten your teeth without putting your life on hold.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Invisalign®?
Invisalign® clear aligners aren’t right for everyone. The best way to find out is with a professional consultation—and Burnaby Dentist and Orthodontist offers complimentary consults. But if you’re wondering whether you might qualify, here are the most important factors:
Wide Range of Alignment and Bite Issues
Invisalign® is not limited to just mild or moderate cases. With careful planning and expert oversight, clear aligners can successfully treat a broad spectrum of alignment concerns—including crooked, crowded, or spaced teeth, as well as bite conditions like overbite, underbite, open bite, and crossbite.
At Burnaby Dentist & Orthodontist, our experienced providers have used Invisalign® to address complex cases that might traditionally be referred for braces. Your personalized treatment plan will be based on detailed digital scans, making it possible to achieve precise, predictable results.
Commitment to Wearing Aligners
Success with Invisalign® depends on consistency. Aligners must be worn 20–22 hours each day, removed only for meals, snacks, and oral hygiene. If you’re disciplined and able to stick to routines, you’re an excellent candidate. Patients who skip wear time often extend their treatment unnecessarily.
Teens and Adults Past Growth Spurts
Invisalign® is ideal for adults and older teens whose jaws are fully developed. Younger teens can also benefit from specialized Invisalign® Teen aligners, which include wear-time indicators to track progress.
Adults of all ages, even seniors, often find Invisalign® to be the perfect solution for improving their smiles later in life.
Desire for a Discreet, Comfortable Option
Many people want straighter teeth without the self-consciousness that comes with braces. Invisalign® aligners are virtually invisible, making them a great choice for professionals, students, and anyone who values confidence.
The smooth, BPA-free plastic is also more comfortable than wires and brackets, with no risk of cuts or irritation.
Good Oral Health
A healthy mouth sets the stage for a successful Invisalign® journey. Patients should have no untreated cavities, gum disease, or dental infections before starting. If any issues exist, your dentist will address them first to ensure the aligners work effectively.
Active or Professional Lifestyles
Invisalign® is a perfect fit for athletes, musicians, public speakers, and busy professionals. Aligners can be removed for practices, performances, or important presentations, without interfering with your lifestyle. Patients who need flexibility often prefer Invisalign® over braces.
Discipline & Responsibility
Since Invisalign® is removable, patients must be responsible about wearing their aligners as directed. Adults and motivated teens typically do well, but for younger children or those who may forget to wear them, braces may be a better option.
Budget & Insurance Coverage
While Invisalign® is an investment, many extended dental plans include orthodontic benefits that may cover part of the cost. Our team can help you check your coverage and explain your options.
Smile Confidence with Invisalign®
A straighter smile isn’t just about dental alignment. It’s about how you feel. At Burnaby Dentist and Orthodontist, many of our Invisalign® patients report noticeable boosts in self-confidence just weeks into treatment.
Whether it’s taking a selfie, speaking at work, or smiling during a social event, clear aligners help you look and feel your best—without drawing attention to your orthodontics.
Because Invisalign® aligners are virtually invisible, you don’t have to worry about the visual impact of wires and brackets. You can laugh freely, speak comfortably, and enjoy face-to-face moments without self-consciousness. Many adults and teens choose Invisalign® precisely because it supports their lifestyle—both professionally and personally.
If you’ve been holding back your smile, Invisalign® could be the turning point. The changes go beyond aesthetics—they’re about feeling confident in your own skin.
Not Sure If Invisalign® Is Right for You?
At our Burnaby clinic, we also offer flexible payment plans to make treatment more accessible—whether or not you have insurance.
If you’re looking for a discreet, flexible, and comfortable way to straighten your teeth—and you’re committed to your treatment plan—Invisalign® could be the right fit.
Burnaby Dentist and Orthodontist has helped patients across Burnaby discover whether Invisalign® is the right choice for their smile and their budget.
Eating and Drinking with Invisalign®
You can eat with your Invisalign® aligners in. In fact, chewing with the trays in your mouth can actually help seat the aligners more firmly on your teeth, improving engagement and supporting faster, more predictable tooth movement.
Invisalign® works by applying gentle, consistent pressure. Chewing naturally presses the trays more snugly against your teeth, similar to using chewies or Munchies, but built into normal eating. The better the fit, the better the movement.
You can eat most foods with aligners in, but use common sense:
- Hard or sharp foods could crack or warp the trays
- Sticky foods may cling to the plastic
- Highly pigmented foods (turmeric, mustard, tomato sauce, red wine, etc.) can stain the aligners, especially if you’re early in the wear cycle
- Sugary or acidic drinks can trap residue against the teeth while the trays are in
If you’re eating something that will definitely stain or damage the trays, remove them, eat, rinse, and put them back in.
- Once you’re done eating:
Remove the trays - Rinse both your mouth and aligners (or at minimum, rinse your mouth with water)
- Brush and floss when you can, especially morning and night
How to Clean Invisalign® Aligners?
Since Invisalign® trays are worn up to 22 hours a day, they can easily collect bacteria, plaque, and odors if not cared for properly. Following a consistent cleaning routine keeps them crystal clear and your treatment on track.
daily cleaning routine:
Here is the daily cleaning routine:
- Rinse every time you remove them : Always rinse aligners with lukewarm water when you take them out. This washes away saliva and reduces bacteria growth. Avoid hot water, which can warp the SmartTrack® plastic.s
- Brush gently : Use a soft-bristled toothbrush (separate from the one you use on your teeth) to lightly brush aligners. This prevents buildup without scratching the surface.
- Use Invisalign® cleaning crystals or mild soap : Soak your aligners once a day in Invisalign® cleaning crystals, which dissolve bacteria and odor-causing debris. As an alternative, a mild, clear antibacterial soap can help, but avoid scented or colored soaps that may stain aligners.
- Skip toothpaste :Toothpaste may seem like a good idea, but it’s abrasive and can scratch the aligner surface, making trays appear cloudy and more prone to holding bacteria
Extra Tips for Fresh Aligners:
Here is the daily cleaning routine:
- Maintain good oral hygiene :Brush and floss before putting aligners back in. Trapped food particles or sugars can stain aligners and increase cavity risk.
- Avoid staining foods and drinks: Coffee, tea, red wine, and curry can stain aligners if you don’t clean your teeth thoroughly before reinserting them.
At Burnaby Dentist and Orthodontist, we provide all patients with easy cleaning instructions and ongoing support to make Invisalign® care simple. Contact us if you have any questions about how to clean your aligners.
What to Do if You Lose or Break an Aligner?
Even the most careful patients sometimes misplace or damage an Invisalign® aligner. Whether it slipped into a napkin at a restaurant, cracked while cleaning, or went missing during travel, don’t panic, there are clear steps to keep your treatment on track.
Contact Our Clinic Immediately
Call Burnaby Dentist and Orthodontist as soon as possible. The faster we know, the quicker we can determine the right solution and prevent your teeth from shifting off course.
Keep Your Previous Aligner as Backup
Never throw away old aligners. If you lose or break one, wear your most recent set until we advise you otherwise. This prevents unnecessary delays and helps maintain your progress.
Next Steps Depend on Where You Are in Treatment
If you’ve only just started a new set, we may recommend ordering a replacement tray to ensure the aligner does its job correctly. If you were already close to switching to the next stage, it may be possible to move ahead a little early without affecting your results. For situations that fall in between, we may ask you to continue wearing your previous aligner until a replacement arrives, helping maintain your progress and prevent setbacks.
Don’t Try DIY Fixes
Do not tape, glue, or force a cracked aligner back into place. A damaged tray won’t move your teeth correctly and could cause more harm than good. Always store your aligners in their protective case when not in use. Many aligners are accidentally lost when wrapped in napkins or left out during meals. Carrying your case makes a big difference.
