Patients typically visit their doctor once every six weeks or so to ensure that treatment is progressing as planned, and to receive their next few sets of aligners.
@taraziegmont

Patients wear each aligner for about two weeks. During this time, the aligners gradually move their teeth until they achieve the prescribed final position.

Nearly undetectable, Invisalign's invisibility is still one of the most opulent features for adults;treatments very inconspicuous, making it easier to "fit in"rather than call attention to their treatment. @socalmom.net

Invisalign is removable . Since patients can take the aligners out to brush and floss, they can maintain normal healthy hygiene during treatment. @elleinthecity
