Invisalign
When you think of teeth strightening, you probably imagine those traditional metal braces, those discomforts while wearing them and all that food that gets around them and keeps them all day 🤢. Probably the first image that comes to your mind is neither beautiful nor clean teeth.
Eh, Invisalign is a game changer.
Invisalign is simply – invisible braces. Instead of classic metal braces, the system uses transparent, plastic foils that are made by measure of your teeth. You wear them almost imperceptibly, and the results are impressive.
Perfect teeth without metal
Sounds too good to be true? But here is the "catch".
You can’t expect everything to go easily without a little effort. Invisalign is great because it’s invisible and you can take it off when you eat or drink, but here’s the thing: you have to be disciplined.
⏬
Foils must be worn 22 hours a day to achieve results.
Yes, you can take them off for a short time, but if you keep forgetting or take them off too often, the result will be delayed.
So, even though it’s invisible, Invisalign requires commitment. In order to see the changes, it is important to wear the foils regularly and change them as the dentist tells you.
But, hey – it’s all a small price to pay for perfectly straight teeth without that old “metal smile”!
Metal braces used to be the standard, but today they are a choice!
Wait, weren’t metal braces the only option for straightening teeth?
Yes, they were – but they are not anymore.
Invisalign gives you the opportunity to straighten your teeth without that old, obvious “iron” on your teeth. But, of course, you can still choose traditional braces if you want – the choice is yours.
However, when you compare traditional metal braces with Invisalign, the difference is like night and day. A metal brace can be effective, but it is very noticeable. Everyone sees you wearing it, you often feel uncomfortable, and it can last for years. On the other hand, invisalign is discreet and comfortable.
You don’t have to give up your smile while straightening your teeth.
Perfect teeth without metal
One of the biggest fears is, “Will it hurt?”
⏬
People are often afraid that wearing foils will cause discomfort or pain, as they have heard stories of traditional metal braces sometimes hurting the inside of the mouth or causing pain.
With invisalign, that fear is mostly unwarranted.
Although you may feel a slight pressure the first few days when you change the foils (which is a sign that the foils are working), there are no sharp brackets or wires to hurt your mouth.
Will I be able to eat normally? 🍕
This is a common fear among people considering Invisalign.
With traditional metal braces, there are many restrictions when it comes to food.
You must not eat hard things, such as nuts, because they can damage the wires and locks.
Sticky foods, such as caramel or gummy candies, can get stuck around braces and make cleaning difficult, increasing the risk of tooth decay.
Even crunchy foods, such as chips or hard crusted bread, can be a problem, as they can easily break the braces or cause discomfort.
Eh, as we already mentioned:
Invisalign is a game changer!
How long does all this take? ⏰
Treatment usually lasts between a few months and two years, depending on the complexity of your case. If you have only mild irregularities in the position of your teeth, you can see results in just a few months. In more complex cases, when it is necessary to correct the bite or greater displacement of the teeth, the treatment may last longer, but it is certainly adapted to individual needs.
That’s why we recommend that you make an appointment and then we can give you all the information you need.
You can schedule an appointment by calling + 381 69 2289 229.
The great thing about Invisalign is that while the treatment lasts, your daily life remains almost unchanged. You can live normally – talk, smile, go to meetings or social events without any worries that anyone will notice that you are straightening your teeth. Due to the discreet foils, no one will even know you are wearing a prosthesis, except yourself.
In retrospect, even if the treatment lasts up to two years, when you look at the long term, it is only a small period of time compared to the lasting benefit you get.
What is the procedure when you decide on invisalign?
Great! Once you’ve decided you want invisalign, here’s what to expect from start to finish.
First we scan, then we plan.
This device makes a detailed representation of your teeth, literally like a map of your smile. Based on that scan, we create a personalized plan.
You need to know that invisalign is not “one size fits all”.
Your plan is tailored just for you.
Each set of foils will be specially made so that it slowly but surely moves your teeth towards the desired goal. At the end of the scan, we can even show you a simulation of how your teeth will look when the treatment is complete.
The second step is to adjust the foil
After we have your 3D model, we start making foils.
You receive several sets of foils in advance, so you can change the foils yourself at home, according to the schedule we give you.
Simple and flexible!
What does that mean for you? Well, that means you won’t have to come to us all the time! You get several sets of foils in advance, so you can make the changes yourself at home, following the instructions. Of course, we will follow you regularly and perform control examinations, but you will not have to come to have the wires tightened as with metal braces.
This is what the foil set you will receive in advance looks like.
Regular check - ups - without complications
Although you can change the Invisalign foils yourself at home, it is important that you come to us for regular check-ups. At these controls, we check how your smile is progressing and whether the foils are perfectly aligned with the plan. Usually, everything goes smoothly, but in rare cases a little adjustment may be required.
How much will it all cost?
The price of Invisalign treatment can vary, and it depends on several factors, primarily the complexity of your case and the duration of the treatment. If only a slight straightening of the teeth is required, the price will be lower. However, if it is a more complex problem, such as correcting a bite or major tooth movement, treatment may be more expensive.
But here’s the thing.

Invisalign is an investment in your smile and your confidence, and it’s something that has long-term value.
Compared to traditional metal braces, invisalign offers many more advantages because it is discreet, comfortable and practical, and allows you to lead a normal life during the entire treatment. So you have all the freedom to enjoy your daily activities without restrictions.
When you consider the long-term benefits—a perfect smile, less need for further corrective treatments, and comfort during the process itself—you’ll see that Invisalign is well worth the price.
Finally, consider the value of a smile that lasts a lifetime. The price is one-time, but the result you get is something you’ll wear every day – every time you smile, talk, take photos or simply enjoy the freedom of being happy with your smile. So whatever it costs, it’s an investment that will pay for itself every day for as long as your smile lasts!

What is Invisalign?
The Invisalign system involves a set of transparent, almost invisible foils for straightening teeth that gradually move the teeth in the desired direction. The foils are comfortable and easy to use. They are made individually for each patient.
How do I change the foils?
Each foil is worn for one to two weeks before being replaced by the next. You change Invisalign foils yourself at home, regular check-ups at the dentist are not that often. You get detailed instruction in which order you change the foils.
How often do I need to come for check ups?
Invisalign is highly recommend to patients who do not live in Belgrade and are not able to come often for check-ups. Of course, there are controls, but they are much rarer compared to braces.
What if I can not come to Belgrade anymore?
Another great thing about the Invisalign system is that, if for any reason you are not able to come to our clinic for a check-up, you can always continue the therapy in the place where you live with a certified Invisalign doctor.
How are Invisalign foils made?
The best and easiest for you is to make them completely digital. This involves scanning your teeth and sending the scan to certified laboratories. A therapy plan is made in the software, based on which the foils that reach you are printed.
What are the biggest advantages of Invisalign foils?
– They are discreet, confident, comfortable and smooth
– You can eat what you love
– You can easily clean your teeth and maintain oral hygiene
– Fewer office visits
– Faster treatment – Therapy that would last about 1.5 years with braces, with the invisalign system you would probably finish it in twice as long, about 7 months.
Is invisalign precise enough?
- Yes, Invisalign foils are made according to a predetermined plan in the software
IF you would like to see how foils and whole process looks like in alive, call us on +381692289229
- We are able to show you software made results before and after the therapy, even before it starts
Am I too old or too young to wear Invisalign?
Invisalign foils are intended for all ages, children, adolescents and adults.
How long do they need to be worn?
Tooth straightening foils are worn 22 hours a day. You take them off when you eat, drink and brush your teeth. If you wear them less than the allotted time, the therapy will go much slower.
How long the Invisalign treatment lasts?
The total duration of therapy is in most cases faster compared to a fixed device. The average time for minor corrections is 3 to 9 months, or up to 18 months for complex treatments. Regular check-ups in our office are usually once a month.
Many people notice visible changes within the first few months. It’s incredibly motivating to watch your smile transform week by week, all without compromising your daily life.
Do I eat and sleep with foils?
It is mandatory to wear tooth straightening foils while you sleep, because they still perform their role. You must take them out of your mouth while eating and drinking fluids. You can only wear them when you drink water.
How do I maintain foils and teeth?
Foil maintenance is simple, they are washed with a brush and paste two to three times a day. Invisalign also has a special cleaning set.
Teeth are maintained by established oral hygiene measures.
