What is Invisalign and invisible orthodontics?
What are aligners, or “tray systems”?
An aligner, also known as a tray-based orthodontic system, is a modern solution in which tooth movement is digitally planned. During treatment, a virtual schedule of tooth movement is created in advance, specifying exactly how many steps are needed to achieve the desired result.
For each step, a new transparent tray (aligner) is made for the dental arch – these gradually move your teeth into their final position. The treatment is therefore a controlled, predictable, and transparent process.
Invisalign – the pioneer of invisible orthodontics
Invisalign was the first, and for a long time the only, aligner system available worldwide, launched in 2000. Its pioneering role remains unquestionable, and the brand has become synonymous with invisible orthodontics.
Next-generation aligners – more options, personalized
Over the past 10 years, several other aligner systems have emerged that are equally effective, and in some cases even more advantageous for patients. At our clinic, we work with Smartee and Angel aligners, which align better with the concept of Health-Centered Orthodontics. We always select the system that best fits the patient’s needs and treatment plan – we focus not on the brand, but on the solution that is best for you.
Who is invisible orthodontics recommended for?
Aligners are an excellent choice for mild to moderate crowding, gaps, or aesthetic corrections. However, it is important to emphasize that they are not ideal in every case: for more significant jaw discrepancies or special bite issues, fixed braces may be a better and safer option.
👉 During the consultation, we always determine on a case-by-case basis which method will provide the best result.

Invisalign and next-generation aligner systems
Invisalign: the beginning. Smartee and Angel: the next level.
Invisalign: the beginning. Smartee and Angel: the next level.
Invisalign was the first, and for a long time the only, invisible orthodontic system. It has helped millions of patients worldwide and made the concept of invisible orthodontics widely known.
Over the past decade, however, new aligner systems have emerged that are equally effective or, in some ways, even more advanced. Among these, Smartee and Angel Aligner stand out, offering advantages thanks to modern materials and design concepts.
The success of treatment is determined not only by the transparency of the tray but also by several additional factors:
The flexibility of the aligner material
Tray coverage, i.e., how much of the teeth it covers and the level of movement control it provides
Use of auxiliary elements
Ability to correct significant jaw discrepancies, enabling treatments without jaw surgery
Smartee and Angel Aligner excel in these aspects, allowing complex cases to be treated that previously could only be resolved with jaw surgery.

Fantastic place! Everyone was very kind, explained everything clearly, and handled everything professionally. I received a lot of help and attention. Dr. Hermann is a genius! I can only recommend it to everyone!
/Gergely Nagy/
We started my daughter’s treatment 1.5 years ago! From the very first consultation, we knew this was the only place we wanted to come! The information and expertise were first-class! Gábor and Noémi were always very kind, Aliz was never scared, and they always explained everything to her. The service is comprehensive – speech therapy and body treatments are part of orthodontics when needed. For us, it’s absolutely 5 stars; we recommend them to anyone considering orthodontic treatment! 🙂
/Anikó Sörös/
“We first brought our daughter Mira, who is now 11, to Gábor and his team for care after her teeth began to change. Gábor pointed out that Mira had tongue-thrust swallowing and mouth breathing. Fortunately, an effective solution was the speech therapy recommended by Gábor and the mouth monitor she wore at night.
We started orthodontic treatment in December 2020 to guide her canine into the correct position. Thanks to the comprehensive support, Mira’s treatment was successfully completed in April 2021.
At first, Mira was a little apprehensive about braces, but she got used to the appliance very quickly and wore it without any problems. I believe this was largely due to the clinic’s calm and friendly atmosphere, and the fact that Gábor and his team are kind and extremely professional.”

Frequently Asked Questions
The duration of treatment depends on the severity of the issue. In mild cases, noticeable results can be achieved in just 6–8 months, while more complex problems may take 1.5–2 years, similar to fixed braces. During the consultation, you will receive a personalized plan, so you will know exactly what to expect.
Most patients find aligners much more comfortable than traditional fixed braces. During the first 1–2 days of wearing a new tray, you may feel slight pressure, which is a natural result of tooth movement and usually subsides quickly.
Aligners should be removed before eating, so you can enjoy any food or drink you like. Only water is recommended while wearing the tray. After eating, always brush your teeth before putting the aligner back in.
The price depends on the duration and complexity of the treatment. What’s important to us: there are no hidden fees – during every consultation, we go through exactly what to expect. We also offer installment plans to make the treatment easier to manage.
This can happen, but it’s not a problem. In such cases, contact us immediately and go back to the previous tray – this is the safest solution. If it was already time to move to the next tray, we can proceed, but it’s important to consult with us first. It’s also crucial to keep all replaced aligners and only dispose of them after discussing with your orthodontist, as you may need them later.
Not in every case. Aligners are excellent for mild to moderate crowding, gaps, or aesthetic corrections. However, for severe jaw discrepancies or specific bite issues, fixed braces may be a better option. During the consultation, we always recommend the safest treatment tailored to each individual.
Yes, aligners are suitable for certain pediatric treatments. Over the past 25 years, aligner technology and professional experience have advanced to the point where aligner-based treatments for children are now available. All major systems offer options for pediatric care. Interestingly, children cooperate well and can wear the aligners throughout the day. They can also be used in mixed dentition, when baby teeth are still present.
Aligners: transparent, removable, comfortable, and easy to clean. Bonded appliances: permanently attached to the teeth, providing better control over more complex tooth movements, but more difficult to clean and more noticeable. Both systems have advantages and disadvantages – these must be taken into account when making a choice, and we always choose the device for the treatment and do not tailor the treatment to the device.
Invisible orthodontics is a proven method used by millions worldwide. Over the past 25 years, numerous clinical studies and completed cases have confirmed its effectiveness. However, the key to success lies in proper case selection and professional follow-up – something our experienced medical team ensures.
Your smile is in good hands – and can shine freely.
