Sounds/looks similar to wearing a retainer, thats a clear plastic mould that fits over your teeth once they have been straightened by orthodontic braces, They usually have to be worn for part of the day for the rest of your life...no big deal if wearing at night when sleeping, but with Invisable braces every time you eat/drink etc you have to slip the clear braces off, (could be a pain in the ar$e) And teeth that are naturally out of line will need some retaining for ever.....invisalign sounds simple, but i am thinking there is nothing like having them done by O/braces,with monthly visits for checks and a little tightening until the teeth have been lined up,(and i bet its a faster process by using braces) incidentally you don't need a mouth full of metal, you can get white/clear braces fitted and they don't really notice that much.., with out a retainer the teeth will slowly move back to where they were, so the new invisilign system will surely be the same.....wear forever..!
Teeth are tough to move...i would do a fair bit of research before deciding on going the plastic route.
I have no idea on getting them in Thailand.
Just my Thoughts on it.
