Procedure

How the treatment works

Clear aligner treatment at Operla Dental is designed around a short Istanbul visit followed by remote supervision. The clinical work — scanning, planning, and attachment placement — happens here; the tooth movement happens at home, monitored through our patient app and scheduled photo reviews.

1

Digital Scan & Smile Simulation

A 3D intraoral scanner maps every surface of your teeth in minutes — no messy impressions. Your orthodontist uses the scan to build a stage-by-stage movement plan and shows you a simulation of the projected final result before anything begins.

2

Treatment Plan Approval

You review the digital plan together with your orthodontist, including how many aligner sets you will need and the estimated timeline. Only when you approve the projected outcome is the full aligner series sent for manufacturing.

3

Fitting & Attachments

At your fitting appointment, small tooth-coloured composite attachments are bonded to selected teeth to help the aligners grip and move them efficiently. Your first sets of aligners are fitted and checked, and any interproximal polishing is completed.

4

Coaching & Take-Home Series

You receive several months of aligners to take home, along with clear instructions: wear each set 20–22 hours a day and change to the next set every 7–14 days as directed. Your coordinator sets up remote check-ins before you leave.

5

Remote Monitoring & Refinement

You upload progress photos or scans through our monitoring app at set intervals. If teeth track exactly to plan, new aligner batches are shipped to you; if a refinement is needed at the end, a short second visit or a mailed refinement series completes the result.

Candidacy

Who is suitable?

Clear aligners suit a wide range of adults and teenagers, but the best candidates share a few characteristics.

Adults or teens with mild to moderate crowding, spacing, or bite misalignment Patients who want orthodontic treatment without visible metal braces Professionals who need a discreet option for client-facing work Disciplined wearers who can commit to 20–22 hours of daily aligner wear Patients with healthy gums and no untreated decay Those who previously had braces and experienced relapse of their alignment
Recovery

Your recovery timeline

1
Day 1
Mild pressure on the teeth is normal with each new aligner set — most patients describe it as tightness rather than pain. Speech may feel slightly different for a day or two.
2
Week 1
Aligners feel routine: in for 20–22 hours, out for meals and brushing. Any initial lisp resolves and attachments become unnoticeable.
3
Month 1
You are several aligner sets into the series and the first movements are measurable on your monitoring scans, even if they are subtle in the mirror.
4
Month 3
Visible improvement in alignment for most patients. Remote reviews confirm teeth are tracking to the digital plan and the next aligner batch is released.
5
Month 12
Many mild-to-moderate cases finish within 6–12 months. Once movement is complete, fixed or removable retainers preserve your new alignment for the long term.
FAQ

Invisalign & Clear Aligners — your questions answered

Mild crowding or spacing cases often finish in 6–9 months, while moderate cases typically take 12–18 months. Your exact timeline is calculated from the 3D plan before you start, so you know the projected duration — and the projected result — in advance.

No. Clear aligner therapy is one of the most travel-friendly dental treatments. You need one visit of 2–3 nights for scanning, planning, and fitting, after which progress is supervised remotely through photo or scan uploads. Some patients choose a short second visit for final refinements.

Most patients feel gentle pressure for a day or two after switching to a new aligner set. This is a sign the teeth are moving as planned. It rarely requires more than an over-the-counter pain reliever, and many patients need nothing at all.

The trays are made of thin, transparent medical-grade plastic and sit tightly against the teeth. At conversational distance they are very difficult to spot. Small tooth-coloured attachments may be visible on close inspection, but far less than any bracket-and-wire system.

Yes — that is one of the biggest advantages. You remove the aligners for meals and for anything other than plain water, then brush and reinsert them. There are no food restrictions of the kind that come with fixed braces.

Contact your coordinator right away. Depending on where you are in the series, you will usually be told to move to the next set early or wear the previous set while a replacement is produced and shipped. Because your whole series is digitally stored, replacements are straightforward.

Yes. Teeth have a natural tendency to drift back, so retention is part of every orthodontic treatment. We typically provide clear retainers, and a discreet bonded wire retainer can be placed behind the front teeth for extra security.
