What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are custom-made, transparent trays that gently move your teeth into the right position over time. You wear them over your teeth for around 18-20 hours/day, and they apply light pressure to slowly shift your teeth—but without the metal.
Average Cost of Clear Aligners in Secunderabad
The cost of clear aligners in Secunderabad usually falls between ₹60,000 and ₹3,00,000 or more. The price can vary based on a few important factors.
Here’s what can affect the cost of your clear aligner treatment:
- Brand of Aligners Popular brands like Invisalign tend to cost more than options than the other available alternative brands.
- Complexity of Your Case Minor teeth adjustments usually cost less as they require fewer aligner trays. In contrast, complex cases need more trays, increasing the cost. Factors like extraction vs. non-extraction, patient age, and presence of milk or extra teeth also affect tray count. Severe cases may involve attachments, auxiliaries, or procedures like IPR for best results.
- Number of Aligners Needed More trays mean longer treatment and higher cost.
- Duration of Treatment Longer treatments may require more visits and more aligners.
- Clinic and Orthodontist Well-known clinics with experienced orthodontists may charge more, but often offer better care and technology.
It’s always best to get a consultation to find out the exact cost for your specific case.

Additional Costs to Consider
While the main cost of clear aligners covers the trays and treatment, there are a few extra expenses that you might need to plan for. These are not always included in the initial price, so it’s good to ask your dentist upfront.
Here are some common additional costs to keep in mind:
- Initial Consultation or Dental Scans Some clinics charge separately for the first consultation or 3D scans needed to design your aligners.
- Extraction of Teeth In cases of severe crowding, tooth extraction is recommended to create space for proper alignment. This is a part of the suggested treatment plan but not included in the package as it is handled separately.
- Retainers After Treatment After your aligner journey is complete, you’ll need retainers for some time to keep your teeth in place. These are usually an extra cost.
- Follow-Up Appointments Usually visits during orthodontic treatment is part of the total initial cost offered but few clinics charge extra for some unexpected visits.
- Replacement TraysIf you lose or damage an aligner tray, replacing it could come with an added fee.
- Teeth Whitening or Polishing (Optional) Some people choose to get their teeth polished or whitened after treatment, which is optional but not included in the aligner package.
Also since it a long procedure requiring regular visits for at least a year or more ; if any dental problem arise apart from primary orthodontic treatment it will cost extra to patient
