Invisible Orthodontics - Rome City Center

The perfect balance between aesthetics and health

Invisible orthodontics represents a significant evolution in the treatment of dental malocclusions, designed for those who desire effective results without compromising aesthetics. At Dr. Alessio Triestino’s Dental Studio, we use advanced clear aligners (SPARK™ brand) to precisely guide tooth movement in a comfortable and discreet manner

How invisible orthodontics works

This technique, called Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT), consists of designing a series of removable transparent aligners custom-made to measure. Each aligner is digitally designed to apply gentle, controlled forces, gradually moving the teeth toward their ideal position.

The process unfolds in several steps:

  • Digital diagnosis: we collect all necessary data using an intraoral scanner, photographs, X-rays, and occlusal analysis
  • Personalized planning: thanks to dedicated software, the treatment is precisely designed and shared with the patient, carefully assessing the complexity and the actual feasibility of the case.
  • Daily aligner wear: trays must be worn for 20–22 hours per day and replaced every 7–14 days.
  • Addition of orthodontic auxiliaries, if needed: in more complex cases, tools such as attachments, elastics, bite ramps, power ridges and mini-screws (TADs) can be integrated to enhance treatment effectiveness.
  • Periodic checkups and retention phase: once the active phase is complete, nighttime retainers will be used to consolidate the results.

The advantages of clear aligners

Those who choose a clear dental aligner find a solution that is not only effective but also more comfortable than traditional orthodontics:

  • Impeccable aesthetics: the trays are virtually invisible.
  • High comfort: no wires or metal brackets to irritate the oral mucosa
  • Better oral hygiene: aligners are removable, making it easier to brush and floss.
  • Digital precision: the treatment is fully customized.

Precise control of the bite and tooth movements, including selective movements, with the option to expand the arch.

Not recommended in cases of:

  • Very short dental crowns
  • Poor patient compliance (irregular wear of aligners)
  • The need for very large tooth movements

At our practice, we assess the actual feasibility of treatment based on the type of tooth movement required, always ensuring a plan tailored to each patient.

FAQ

1. What is the difference between Invisalign™ and the aligners you use?

Invisalign™ is a well-known brand of clear aligners. At our studio we use Spark™, an equally advanced, precise, and safe system based on the same clinical and technological principles. The only difference lies in the manufacturer: the results and patient comfort remain excellent.

Absolutely not. This is a myth. In fact, during clear aligner treatment, professional oral hygiene is even more important to keep gums and teeth healthy. We use gentle instruments and advanced techniques that do not damage teeth and improve treatment effectiveness.

Yes, to achieve the desired results, the aligners must be worn for 20-22 hours per day, removing them only to eat and brush your teeth. Consistency is essential: the greater the compliance, the better the results will be.

Yes. It is particularly suitable for adults who wish to correct their smile without a visible fixed appliance. It is discreet, effective, and compatible with a dynamic lifestyle.

The cost varies based on the complexity of the case and the treatment duration. During the initial visit, after a complete evaluation, we will provide you with a personalized plan with all the information, including timeframes and costs.
