Clear aligners are an orthodontic treatment for straightening teeth in a discreet and comfortable manner. They have no fixed metal work and are fully removable which makes it easier for eating, drinking, brushing and flossing.
Treatment can be completed in as little as 6 months but varies depending on your individual needs. Your dentist will outline how long your treatment will take.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
Nearly invisible - No one will notice you are wearing them.
Removable - You can continue to eat and drink what you normally do by simply removing your aligners. This also makes oral hygiene easier as it will not affect your brushing and flossing routine. You wear them for around 22 hours per day.
No metal or wires - In most cases you will have less visits to the practice. It also means less places for food to get trapped allowing for easier cleaning.
