Clear aligners are clear removable braces which when worn, enable the teeth to be straightened discreetly and efficiently.

They are a more cosmetic treatment option compared to traditional braces as they are nearly transparent, custom made “trays” that tightly fit a patient’s teeth. Aligners are made to fit a patient’s teeth at different stages of their treatment. Each set of aligners is worn for one-three weeks, at least 22 hours a day, before moving on to the next set. Each aligner set is engineered to move the teeth incrementally, per the dentist’s treatment plan, until the desired tooth alignment is reached. Tooth coloured attachments on the teeth will help aligners move teeth properly.

Aligners can treat most mild and moderate orthodontic mis-alignments. An orthodontic assessment can provide an accurate diagnosis and the best treatment recommendations for you.

For patients where clear aligners cannot treat their dental concerns, fixed braces are another option to achieve the straighter smile you want to achieve. Tooth coloured brackets and wires are used in order to offer a more cosmetic option compared to the usual metal braces these are bonded onto your tooth surface, and carefully removed at the end of your treatment.

Orthodontic treatment plans can vary a lot as each dental alignment is completely unique, so your exact price will be discussed after an in person smile assessment during the consultation, however as a guide:

Relapse orthodontic treatments: Case dependant from £500

Comprehensive orthodontic treatments: From £1000-£4000
