You will receive a beautiful box with your custom-made aligners. Wear the aligners for 22 hours a day, changing them every 10-14 days. Achieving the perfect smile is easy!
Aligners are designed to solve a variety of orthodontic cases, both simple and complex. Contact a certified CristaLine specialist; only a doctor will be able to assess your situation and choose the best solution for you.
Aligners are removable, hygienic, and painless. In addition, you can see the final results of your treatment before you start it.
Aligners are usually changed every 10-14 days when you are ready to start the next step of treatment. Each case is unique; your doctor will give you all the necessary recommendations according to your treatment plan.
No, you just need to remove the aligners while eating. You can eat and drink anything you want during treatment with aligners, unlike braces, which are quite restrictive due to the fear of breaking the wires or getting food stuck in them.
Cristaline aligners are a series of transparent, removable trays made from durable hypoallergenic bioplastic. Each aligner is manufactured on high-precision equipment based on an individual 3D model of the patients teeth. The aligners apply gentle but continuous pressure to the teeth, gradually moving them into the ideal position planned by the treatment software.
Cristaline aligners successfully treat most orthodontic conditions, including crowding, spacing (diastemas and gaps), crossbite, deep bite, and open bite. However, in exceptionally complex clinical cases (for example, when major maxillofacial surgery is required), the doctor may recommend combined treatment.
To achieve the planned and desired result, aligners should be worn for 22 hours per day. They should only be removed during meals and while brushing your teeth.
Aligner treatment is generally much more comfortable than braces. During the first 23 days after switching to a new aligner, you may experience mild pressure or increased tooth sensitivity. This is completely normal and indicates that tooth movement has begun.
During the first few hours after inserting a new aligner, you may notice a slight lisp. Your tongue quickly adapts, and normal speech usually returns within 12 days.
We recommend drinking only plain cool water while wearing aligners. Hot beverages (tea, coffee) may deform the plastic, while staining foods, berries, and smoking may discolor the aligners and reduce their main advantagetransparency. It is best to remove aligners before eating or consuming colored beverages.
These are called attachments. They are tiny tooth-colored composite elements bonded to the enamel by your orthodontist. They act as anchors for the aligners, helping them perform more complex tooth movements (such as rotation or extrusion). They are barely noticeable and are completely removed after treatment is finished.
The cost depends on the number of aligners required for your case. The total fee typically includes diagnostics, creation of the 3D treatment plan, manufacturing of the Cristaline aligners, and follow-up visits with your doctor.
It is possible to correct a bite with transparent caps from 12-14 years as there is active growth of the jaw. If you are under 18, we need your parents' consent.
The duration of treatment depends on the complexity of your case. The average treatment time with CristaLine is between 12 and 18 months, although initial results can be seen within a few weeks. In mild cases, the treatment duration can be as short as 4 months.
Yes, it is possible. Tell that to your doctor during the diagnosis.
We recommend using the iPhone and Android app. The app will remind you to change your aligners, about appointments with the doctor, allow you to upload photos at each stage, and track your progress.
This is one of Cristalines key advantages. Based on a digital scan of your teeth, a virtual 3D treatment plan (Setup) is created. You will be able to see the step-by-step movement of each tooth and the final result of your future smile on a computer screen before the first aligner is even manufactured.
Care is very simple: twice a day (morning and evening), clean your aligners with a regular toothbrush using mild soap or a non-abrasive toothpaste and rinse them with cool water. Do not use hot water, as it may deform the plastic.
Do not panic, but contact your orthodontist immediately. The doctor will advise whether you can move to the next aligner stage or whether we need to quickly manufacture a replacement aligner.
Yes, absolutely. Cristaline aligners are manufactured using Zendura FLX, a certified medical-grade polymer from leading global manufacturers. The material is fully biocompatible, does not cause allergies, contains no harmful bisphenols (BPA-free), and is completely safe for long-term use in the oral cavity.
The Cristaline Forte line includes additional nighttime aligners made from a special multilayer, high-rigidity polymer. They are used in clinical situations that require enhanced or more controlled tooth movement (for example, complex root rotations or intensified force application during specific treatment stages). The combination of standard aligners and Forte aligners is selected by your treating doctor during the 3D treatment planning process.
During the first few days after switching aligners, pressure should be noticeable. If the aligner feels loose at the end of the 1014-day period, this is normal and means your teeth have already reached the planned position. However, if you have just inserted a new aligner and it feels loose or easily falls off, it may indicate that your teeth have not yet caught up with the treatment schedule or that an attachment has detached. Contact your orthodontist, as you may need to wear the previous aligner for a few more days or have the attachment restored.
The risk of an allergic reaction is reduced to an absolute minimum. Cristaline uses only high-tech European medical-grade thermoplastics that have passed strict international biocompatibility certification. The material contains no BPA, phthalates, or other toxic additives. If you have very sensitive gums, you may experience mild mechanical irritation from the aligner edge during the first few days, but a true allergic reaction to our material is considered highly unlikely.
Yes, Cristaline aligners are ideal for an active lifestyle. They are completely safe during running, fitness training, and gym workouts. However, if you participate in contact sports with a higher risk of injury (boxing, martial arts, hockey), it is recommended to remove your aligners during training and wear a dedicated protective sports mouthguard.
