Invisalign in Lokhandwala. Is it right for me?
By Make Me Smile Dental Health Centre, Shastri Nagar Lane 2, Andheri West · Updated 1 October 2026
The short answer
Invisalign uses a series of clear, removable trays to straighten teeth gradually, without metal braces. It suits most adults and teens with gaps, crowding or many bite problems. Treatment usually takes 6 to 18 months, wearing the trays 20 to 22 hours a day. Make Me Smile in Shastri Nagar, Andheri Lokhandwala offers Invisalign, with appointments seven days a week.
If you’ve been living with gaps, crowded teeth or a smile that shifted after childhood braces, Invisalign is the most discreet way to fix it. Make Me Smile is an Invisalign provider in Shastri Nagar, Andheri Lokhandwala, and you can come in for check-ins any day of the week, Sundays included.
How Invisalign works
- Assessment. We examine your teeth and bite, and take records to see whether Invisalign suits you.
- Your digital plan. You see how your teeth are planned to move, stage by stage, before you commit.
- Wearing the trays. You switch to a new set every week or two and wear them 20–22 hours a day.
- Check-ins. Usually every 6–8 weeks, so we can track progress.
- Retainers. Once your teeth are in place, retainers keep them there.
Who it suits
- Gaps between teeth
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Teeth that moved after braces as a child
- Many overbites, underbites and crossbites
- Adults who don’t want metal braces at work
One of our patients wrote that she “had gaps in my teeth for the longest time” that made her self-conscious about her smile, and that the team made her feel cared for at every session.

More questions
Is Invisalign better than braces?
For many adults, Invisalign is more comfortable and far less visible, and you can take it out to eat and brush. Some complex bites still do better with braces. We’ll tell you honestly which suits your teeth.
Does Invisalign hurt?
Each new set of trays feels tight for a day or two while the teeth move. Most people describe it as pressure rather than pain, and milder than braces.
Can I eat with Invisalign?
You take the trays out to eat and drink anything except water, then brush and put them back in. That’s also why there are no food restrictions.
How much does Invisalign cost?
It depends on how much your teeth need to move and the length of treatment. We’ll explain the cost for your case after an assessment, before you decide.
