Which invisible braces are for you?
Picking the right invisible braces is a big decision, and it’s all about finding what fits your needs and treatment goals best. Let’s break down a few key factors that can help you make the most suitable choice:
1. Cost
Let’s be honest—cost matters. While some aligners might seem like a great deal upfront, make sure you’re getting all the support and features you need. Look for options with clear, transparent pricing so you won’t get hit with unexpected costs down the line. Here’s Zenyum’s full cost breakdown.
2. Comfort
You’ll be wearing these aligners for most of the day, so comfort is key. Some aligners are made with materials that offer a snug, comfortable fit, making it easier to wear them for those long hours. Comfort can make or break your experience, so choose wisely!
3. Support and monitoring
Having someone in your corner during your treatment is super important. While some brands offer just the aligners, others give you more hands-on support with regular check-ins. This can offer some peace of mind as you know there is someone you can rely upon for any trouble you might face during your aligner journey!.
Think about what’s most important to you—whether it’s staying on budget, finishing treatment quickly, or just being comfortable and confident throughout the process. By considering these factors, you’ll be well on your way to finding the best fit for your smile journey.
Zenyum Invisible Braces: The clear way to straighter teeth!
Zenyum Invisible Braces are a discreet, effective solution for achieving a straighter smile. Custom-made to fit your teeth, these clear aligners gradually shift your teeth into place, offering a convenient way to improve your smile without the hassle of traditional braces.
Whether you’re dealing with minor or more complex alignment issues, Zenyum’s Invisible Braces blend seamlessly into your daily life.
How Zenyum Invisible Braces Align Your Teeth
Zenyum Invisible Braces work by applying gentle, consistent pressure to your teeth, moving them into the desired position over time. Each set of aligners is worn for about one to two weeks before moving on to the next set, which continues the process.
This gradual adjustment helps to ensure that your teeth move safely and comfortably into alignment. With regular self-monitoring through the Zenyum app and occasional physical check-ins with your treating dentist, a straighter smile awaits you!

3. Customised Treatment Plan
The 3D scan and X-rays will be used to design a customised treatment plan just for you. Both you and your treating dentist will have to review and approve this plan.
4. Aligner Production and Fitting
Once the plan is approved, we’ll send your aligners for production. You’ll head back to the clinic for the fitting and collection of your custom-made clear aligners.
5. Wearing your aligners
Wear each set of aligners for 10 days before switching to the next set. You can monitor your treatment progress and schedule follow-up appointments directly through the Zenyum app, as directed by your treating dentist.
