Aligners

Removable, nearly invisible clear aligner trays that gradually straighten your teeth without brackets or wires — a discreet, comfortable alternative to traditional braces for mild to moderate orthodontic cases.

Benefits

  • Virtually invisible — no metal brackets or wires
  • Fully removable for eating, drinking, and cleaning
  • No dietary restrictions throughout treatment
  • Smooth plastic trays with no sharp edges or irritation
  • Shorter average treatment time than traditional braces
  • Digital treatment plan shows you the end result upfront

How it works

  1. 01

    3D digital scan

    A precise intraoral scan replaces messy impressions. The scan is used to map your current tooth positions in three dimensions.

  2. 02

    Digital treatment simulation

    We generate a step-by-step virtual model of your tooth movements so you can see the projected final result before committing to treatment.

  3. 03

    Custom tray fabrication

    Your series of aligners is precision-fabricated from medical-grade, BPA-free thermoplastic. Each tray moves teeth a fraction of a millimetre.

  4. 04

    Tray delivery & fitting

    You receive your first set of trays. We confirm the fit, discuss wear instructions (20–22 hours per day), and show you how to insert and remove them correctly.

  5. 05

    Progress reviews

    You return every 4–6 weeks to collect your next batch of trays and for us to monitor progress. Refinement trays are provided as needed at no extra charge.

Frequently asked questions

How many hours a day must I wear my aligners?
For effective treatment, aligners should be worn for 20–22 hours per day. They are only removed for eating, drinking anything other than water, and cleaning your teeth.
Can I eat and drink with aligners in?
Aligners should be removed before eating or drinking anything other than plain water. Heat and pigment from food and drinks can warp or stain the trays.
How long does aligner treatment take?
Treatment duration varies from 6 months for mild cases to 18 months or more for moderate alignment issues. Your digital simulation will show a projected timeline before treatment starts.
Are aligners suitable for everyone?
Aligners work best for mild to moderate crowding, spacing, and bite issues. Severe skeletal discrepancies or complex bite problems may require traditional braces or surgical intervention. We assess your case at the initial scan appointment.
