Clear Aligners (Orthodontics)
Clear aligners are a discreet, comfortable way to straighten your teeth without fixed braces. They are removable, so you can eat, drink, brush and floss as normal.
Made from a smooth, clear material, the aligners are designed to be comfortable to wear and virtually invisible throughout your treatment.
The aligner systems we offer
We are providers of three leading clear aligner systems: Invisalign®, Spark™ and ClearCorrect®. At your consultation we will recommend the system that best suits your teeth, your lifestyle and your budget.
Your clear aligner journey
1. Consultation and digital scan
We assess your smile and your overall oral health, and take a quick, comfortable digital scan of your teeth with our intraoral scanner – no messy impressions.
2. Your personalised treatment plan
We design a digital plan showing exactly how your teeth will move, so you can see your planned new smile before treatment begins. Ask us about payment options to help spread the cost.
3. Wearing your aligners
When your aligners arrive, we check the fit and explain how to wear and care for them. You wear them around 22 hours a day, changing to the next set as instructed, and each set moves your teeth a little closer to your new smile.
4. Regular check-ups
Your treatment is supervised by us throughout, with regular visits (usually every 6–8 weeks) to monitor progress.
5. Keeping your new smile
At the end of treatment we provide retainers to keep your teeth in their new position.

Who are clear aligners for?
Clear aligners are suitable for many adults and teenagers with crowded or spaced teeth, mild to moderate bite problems, or teeth that have moved after previous braces. At your consultation we will check whether aligners or another type of brace is best for you.
