Invisalign® Clear Aligners in Petaling Jaya

Straighten your teeth discreetly with Invisalign clear aligners: a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gently move your teeth into place. They lift out for eating, drinking and brushing.

Ask about Invisalign treatment Call the clinic

If you've always wanted straighter teeth but dreaded a mouth full of metal, clear aligners (often called invisible braces) offer a discreet alternative. With Invisalign treatment, you wear a series of transparent, custom-fitted aligners that apply gentle, controlled pressure to move your teeth a little at a time. You switch to a new set every one to two weeks, and because the aligners are nearly invisible, most people around you won't notice them.

They're removable, so you can eat what you like and brush and floss normally. For adults and teens who want a discreet way to fix crowding, gaps or a bite that bothers them, Invisalign clear aligners are often a good fit.

Our Seapark SS2 clinic is at Unit 1, First Floor, Jalan 21/17, Sea Park (Section 21), right next to SS2 and Taman Paramount and under a 10-minute walk from Taman Paramount LRT station. It's about a 5 to 10-minute drive from Taman Sea (SS23), Damansara Jaya (SS22) and Taman Megah (SS24). It is our dedicated clinic for Invisalign and dental implant treatment, and it's open every day from 9:30am to 6:00pm.

What Invisalign treatment can help with

  • Crowded or overlapping teeth
  • Gaps between teeth
  • Overbite and underbite
  • Crossbite
  • Teeth that have moved again after braces

Whether Invisalign treatment is suitable for your teeth is confirmed at your assessment. Some cases are better treated with fixed braces, and we'll tell you if yours is one of them.

The Invisalign treatment process, step by step

  • Consultation and assessment: we check your teeth and gums, listen to what you'd like to change and explain your options, including braces
  • Photos, X-rays and a digital scan: quick and comfortable, no goopy moulds
  • Your custom 3D treatment plan: see a preview of how your smile will change
  • A new set of aligners every one to two weeks, worn around 20 to 22 hours a day
  • Occasional check-ins, usually every 6 to 8 weeks to track progress
  • Retainers at the end of treatment to help keep your teeth in place

Who plans your Invisalign treatment

Invisalign treatment at SmileGram is planned and supervised by our Invisalign-trained dentists, Dr Xin Di Ooi and Dr Jaelyn Yong Lui Jieng. Invisalign aligners are prescribed by a dentist after an assessment, not sold directly to patients, so your dentist checks your progress at every stage.

Is Invisalign treatment painful?

Mild soreness is common for a few days each time you start a new set of aligners. It's a sign the aligners are working to move your teeth, and it eases as you get used to each set. Because there are no brackets or wires, there's nothing sharp to rub against your cheeks. If the discomfort doesn't improve, contact your dentist.

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

It depends on how far your teeth need to move. Simpler cases can take as little as 6 months, while many adult treatments take around 12 to 18 months. Your dentist will give you a realistic timeline at your assessment.

How much does Invisalign treatment cost in PJ?

The cost depends on the complexity of your case and the number of aligners you need, so we give you a clear quote after assessing your teeth rather than a vague range. Ask us on WhatsApp and we'll explain your options, including how payment can be spread out.

Invisalign clear aligners vs braces: which is right for you?

Both can straighten teeth well, and the right choice depends on your case. Clear aligners are removable and nearly invisible, so you can eat normally and brush and floss as usual. Invisalign treatment can address cases from mild to more complex, though for some tooth movements fixed braces may still be the better option. At your assessment we explain both honestly and recommend the one that suits your teeth.

What to expect at SmileGram

  • A relaxed, no-pressure consultation with honest advice on whether Invisalign treatment is right for you
  • A preview of your planned result and a timeline before you decide
  • Open 7 days, so check-ins can fit around work and study
  • Treatment at our Seapark SS2 clinic near Taman Sea or our Seksyen 14 clinic in Petaling Jaya

Please note: Invisalign treatment is not suitable for everyone. Whether it is right for you depends on a satisfactory assessment by one of our dentists, and treatment times and results vary from person to person.

About Invisalign treatment

The Invisalign system is a clear, nearly invisible way to straighten teeth. You wear a series of custom-made plastic aligners over your teeth, and each one gradually moves them towards the planned position. Because you take the aligners out to eat, brush and floss, they're easier to keep clean than fixed braces. Most people won't notice you're wearing them, and you can carry on with daily life as usual.
Your dentist takes photos, X-rays and a digital scan of your teeth. These records are used to create a 3D treatment plan with Align's ClinCheck® software, so you can see a preview of the planned result before you start. Your custom aligners are then made to that plan and sent to us for fitting. You wear them in sequence, changing to the next set every one to two weeks as instructed, and your teeth move gradually until they reach their final position.
Invisalign treatment can address a wide range of cases, from mild to more complex alignment issues, but whether it suits you depends on your teeth. An Invisalign-trained dentist will assess you at a consultation and tell you if it's the right option, or if another treatment, such as braces, would suit you better.
Usually, yes. Small tooth-coloured attachments are sometimes added to help teeth move, but not every crowned tooth is suitable for one, so your Invisalign-trained dentist will check the position of your crowns carefully before treatment starts.
You need good oral health before you start, so any tooth decay or gum problems (gingivitis or periodontitis) should be treated first, which our dentists can help with as part of our general dentistry. Book a consultation and we'll check your teeth and gums and advise you.
No. There's no upper age limit, and Invisalign treatment can suit both teenagers and adults. Your dentist will check that your teeth and gums are healthy and confirm at your assessment whether it's right for you. Because clear aligners are less noticeable than braces, it's a good option for adults who want a more discreet treatment.
Invisalign treatment can start at a young age, once a child's permanent front teeth (the central and lateral incisors) and first molars have come through. An Invisalign-trained dentist will check whether it's the best option, and for patients under 18 a parent or guardian needs to give consent and is welcome to join the consultation.
Some patients who started with braces have switched to Invisalign aligners. Book a consultation and we'll assess whether you're suitable.
Invisalign aligners are made of non-toxic, medical-grade plastic and can be worn during pregnancy. Let your dentist know if you're pregnant, and check with your doctor if you have any concerns.

During treatment

Around 20 to 22 hours a day. Take them out only to eat, to drink anything other than plain water, and to clean your teeth. Wearing them for less time than advised can slow your progress.
Usually every one to two weeks, as your dentist advises. Each new set moves your teeth a little further along your treatment plan.
Clean your aligners every time before you put them back in: brush them gently with a soft toothbrush, water and a small amount of toothpaste, then rinse them well. Keep up your normal brushing and flossing too. You can wash the aligner case with soap and water, but don't put it in the dishwasher. We'll show you how at your fitting appointment.
No. Unless your dentist says otherwise, take your aligners out before you eat or drink anything other than plain water, as food and drinks can stain or damage them and raise the risk of tooth decay. With the aligners out you can usually eat what you like; brush your teeth before you put them back in.
Apart from plain water, we recommend taking your aligners out before you drink. Other drinks can cause stains and tooth decay, and hot drinks or hot water can warp the aligners.
No. Gum sticks to the aligners, so take them out for all snacks and meals.
The bumps fit over small tooth-coloured shapes called attachments, which some cases need. Attachments help the aligners grip your teeth for more precise movement. They aren't very noticeable, and your dentist places them during treatment and removes them at the end.
You might notice a slight lisp for the first day or two while your tongue adjusts. It usually fades quickly and most people speak normally.
It can. We discourage tobacco use while you're wearing aligners because it may discolour them.
Let your dentist know straight away. We'll arrange an appointment to replace it, or in some cases re-attach it at your next visit. Follow your dentist's advice so your progress isn't affected.
Let your dentist know straight away. Your dentist may advise you to wear your previous or next set of aligners, or may order a replacement, which usually arrives within a few days. Follow your dentist's instructions so your treatment isn't delayed.

After treatment and visiting us

You'll wear a retainer to help keep your teeth in their new position. We'll explain the simple routine at the end of your treatment.
The aligners only work while you wear them, so you need to keep them in for 20 to 22 hours a day and take them out every time you eat. Some teeth may need small tooth-coloured attachments to help them move, and you will need to wear a retainer after treatment to hold your teeth in place. For some complex bites, fixed braces may be the better choice. We'll talk you through all of this at your assessment.
Both. Our Seapark SS2 clinic in Sea Park, next to SS2 and near Taman Sea, is our dedicated clinic for Invisalign and implant treatment and is open daily from 9:30am to 6:00pm. Our Seksyen 14 clinic is open daily until 9:30pm if you prefer an evening visit.
Daily care

How to put in and take out your aligners

Putting your aligners in

  1. Check you have the right aligner. Each one is marked with a code, including U for upper or L for lower teeth (Figure 1).
  2. Gently push the aligner over your front teeth (Figure 2), then press it into place over your back teeth with your fingertips. Don't bite it into place.

Taking your aligners out

  1. With your fingertip on the inside of the aligner, start at the back teeth on one side and gently ease it off (Figure 4).
  2. Do the same on the other side (Figure 5).
  3. Once both back ends are loose, lift the aligner gently away from your front teeth (Figure 6).
