What makes Invisalign unique

Keeps your mouth clean and healthy at all times

Because you can easily take it on and off yourself, you can brush and floss as usual, keeping your mouth clean.

So natural you’ll forget you’re even in treatment

Because it’s made of a thin, clear material, people around you will almost never notice it. Some patients notice a change in their alignment as early as a few months into treatment.

Handle special occasions and important events with ease

For once-in-a-lifetime occasions like a wedding, a coming-of-age ceremony, or an important interview, you can take the aligner off temporarily and put it back on afterward.

Keep up with active hobbies and sports as usual

Since you don’t have to worry about wire or metal hardware cutting your mouth, you can enjoy hobbies like sports or playing a wind instrument without holding back.

A less intrusive fit and a precise treatment plan

By combining current technology with a special material, we aim for a comfortable fit that hugs your teeth closely, moving them according to plan based on the simulation.

Fits a busy lifestyle

Emergency issues like a wire coming loose are far less common, and you can swap aligners yourself at home, greatly reducing the burden of frequent clinic visits.

*Precisely because Invisalign can be taken on and off yourself, strictly keeping to your daily wear time is the key to a successful outcome. Please be careful not to forget to wear it or lose an aligner.
*Because teeth are moved slowly without putting strain on them, treatment averages about 1 to 3 years. Let’s take the time to reach the alignment you want together.

Introducing pain-free “iTero” scanning for impressions

Getting the results you want with Invisalign depends above all on precise tooth-shape data collected at the very start. In the past, this usually meant biting down on a mouthful of clay-like silicone material to take an impression — a genuinely difficult ordeal for patients prone to feeling stifled or nauseated (a gag reflex).

The “iTero scanner” that 歯科ハミール in Handa has introduced is completed simply by tracing a small camera along the inside of your mouth. It won’t tire your jaw, and there’s nothing unpleasant about it at all. Based on the fine 3D data we collect, we make a precise aligner that fits your mouth without a single gap. It’s a modern, comfortable impression system that keeps patient burden to an absolute minimum.

Steps before treatment begins

01

1. Booking

Please let us know your preferred date and time through our online booking form or by phone. Our Handa clinic offers a free consultation, so however small your concern may be, please don’t hesitate to come talk to us.

02

2. Consultation

We’ll first look at your mouth’s current condition and take the time to hear what’s concerning you and what alignment you’re hoping for. Based on that, we’ll explain the general direction treatment would take.

03

3. Precision exam (scanning)

Using the latest iTero scanner, we capture precise data on your teeth and bone structure. Based on this 3D data, we build a treatment plan (simulation) of how your teeth will move.

04

4. Diagnosis and finalizing the treatment plan

Your dentist will explain the exam results and simulation footage to you. After discussing your wishes together, we finalize the treatment plan only once you completely understand and agree to the content, duration, and cost.

05

5. Starting treatment (wearing your aligners)

We’ll hand you your finished aligners and take the time to explain how to practice putting them on and taking them off, how to care for them, and things to watch for in daily life. Your Invisalign treatment toward a beautiful smile officially begins here.

FAQ

Q1. About how many hours a day do I need to wear it?

We recommend wearing it 20–22 hours a day. Please keep it in at all times except while eating and brushing your teeth, including while you sleep.

Q2. Does it hurt while my teeth are moving?

For about 24–48 hours right after switching to a new aligner, you may feel mild pressure or pain, like your teeth are being pushed on, but most patients gradually adjust within a few days.

Q3. Can I whiten my teeth at the same time as straightening them?

Yes, you can. Add at-home whitening gel inside the aligner we prepare for you, and you can whiten your teeth at the same time as straightening them.
