Hi .. aligners cannot be used in all cases.. Clear aligners for teeth are a series of plastic trays that move your teeth in small intervals..if ur in a high profile job wr u can’t wear normal braces. U can go for it.. normal braces starts from 18 k.. aligners start from 1.2 lac til 3.5 lac .. in normal braces u need to visit dr every month once . N u pay money in instalments.. in aligners u have to change d set of trays by urself every 15 days.. if u traveling abroad can’t visit .. u can still carry ur treatment
Next Steps
Any queries.. u can take a practo Consultation

With the new age aligners mostly all cases can be treated .The main downside is the cost of treatment ...it's almost 3 to 4 time the cost of regular braces .
Having said that not all cases can be done with aligners .Visit a dentist first to evaluate whether your teeth can be straightened using aligners ...if yes and you can afford the high cost ....any good orthodontist should be able to help you ..

Aligners r new current trend, very esthetics, comfortable, less painful, lesser dentist visit ..... ( is little expensive)
Braces r conventional , cost effective.
