Clear aligners offer an ideal solution for correcting crowded or protruding front teeth. These virtually invisible, removable appliances gently guide your teeth into their optimal position using a series of custom-made trays.
You can wear clear aligners as a standalone treatment, or use them to pre-align your teeth before undertaking further cosmetic procedures. You may wish to realign your teeth before whitening or bonding for truly transformative results. Because they’re removable, you can maintain your usual oral hygiene routine and enjoy meals without restriction, making treatment both comfortable and convenient.
Most cases are completed in just 6–18 weeks, depending on the complexity of your alignment needs. At your initial consultation, we’ll provide a detailed assessment and give you a realistic timeline for when you can expect to see your new smile take shape.
Traditional braces remain a reliable and effective method to straighten teeth and correct bite issues. They work by applying gentle, continuous pressure to gradually move your teeth into the desired position over time.
While braces are more visible than clear aligners, they are highly versatile and can treat a wide range of orthodontic problems, including complex cases that aligners might not fully address. Modern braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever before, with options including metal or discreet ceramic brackets.
Braces are often the preferred choice for younger patients or for those needing significant corrections. Our team will work closely with you to recommend the best treatment plan for your smile goals.
There are a number of reasons why you should choose clear aligners to straighten your teeth. They are safe and gentle on the gums, and they align teeth efficiently without the need for additional treatments or appliances. As well as this, they are easy to use and will suit your everyday life.
Yes, our clear aligners can be inserted and removed easily when eating or drinking (you can only drink water when wearing your aligners).
These aligners are very slim and comfortable to wear, however some people do experience minor changes to their speech during the first few days of wearing them. You may notice a slight lisp, however this should dissipate as you adapt to wearing the aligners.
To achieve the best results, aligners should be worn for at least 20–22 hours a day, only removing them for eating, drinking (anything other than water), and cleaning.
Treatment time varies depending on the complexity of your case, but most aligner treatments are completed within 6 to 18 weeks. Your dentist will provide a personalised estimate during your consultation.
For braces, thorough brushing and flossing are essential to prevent plaque build-up around brackets. With aligners, you should clean both your teeth and the aligners regularly to maintain oral hygiene.
Both are effective orthodontic options. Aligners are ideal for mild to moderate cases and offer a discreet appearance, while braces are better suited for complex tooth movements or bite corrections.
Some discomfort is normal, especially after adjustments or when braces are first fitted, but it usually subsides within a few days. Our team will provide advice on managing any soreness.
You can eat most foods, but it’s best to avoid very hard, sticky, or chewy items that can damage the braces.
It’s recommended that you avoid eating things like caramels or toffees, and stay away from chewing gum for the duration of your treatment.
We’ll give you a full list of foods to avoid during treatment.
