Invisalign + dental care: the winning combo no one tells you about!
Are you wearing Invisalign or considering this treatment? One question comes up often: “What happens if I need dental care during my orthodontic treatment?”
It’s a legitimate concern. An Invisalign treatment lasts between 12 and 24 months. During this period, it’s normal to need a cleaning, cavity treatment, or even an implant.
The good news? With Invisalign, all dental care remains possible. Even easier than with traditional braces!
Invisalign = total freedom for your teeth
The secret traditional braces don't want you to know
Unlike braces permanently glued on, your aligners can be removed in seconds. Your dentist easily accesses all your teeth. No discomfort, no metal obstacles.
No more dirty teeth and surprise cavities
You continue brushing your teeth normally. The risk of cavities or gum problems decreases compared to fixed appliances.

The 3 golden rules for juggling Invisalign and care
Rule #1: Your orthodontist must know EVERYTHING
Inform your orthodontist of any scheduled dental appointment. Even for a simple cleaning.
This coordination avoids unpleasant surprises and optimizes your treatment.
Rule #2: 22h/day, even with treatments
Even with dental care, maintain the recommended wear of your aligners.
Short breaks for treatments don’t impact treatment effectiveness.
Rule #3: Champion hygiene after every treatment
Thorough brushing before putting your aligners back. Especially after a filling or cleaning.
Your teeth must be perfectly clean to avoid bacteria under the aligners.
Your burning questions, our expert answers

Yes, with good coordination. Ideally, plan the implant at the end of treatment, but it’s technically feasible at any time. Our Diamond Provider status gives us the expertise to adapt your treatment plan.
No! The advantage of removable aligners is precisely this flexibility. We perform a new 3D scan after extraction and adjust your following aligners. Treatment continues without major interruption.
