Crowded teeth is a condition where you do not have enough room for your teeth to fit normally. This can cause plaque or tartar and other harmful bacteria to build up as it is harder for you to brush and floss well.
Gaps between teeth is when there is extra space between two or more of your teeth. This can cause pockets between your teeth and gums and can cause food to get stuck making them tender and sore. This might also lead to gum disease.
An Open bite is when your upper and lower teeth don't touch when you close your mouth. An open bite can make it hard for you to chew or difficult to bite even the most common of food like apples.
An underbite is when you close your mouth and your lower front teeth are in front of your upper teeth. In many cases, this is actually a problem with your lower jaw being too far forward. An underbite can make it hard to chew properly and speak clearly, and it might cause your teeth to wear down more quickly.
An overbite is when your upper front teeth overlap with your lower front teeth. Most people have at least a little overbite. When your overbite is too large, your doctor might tell you you have a deep bite. This can cause problems, from your teeth wearing down to pain in your jaw.
A crossbite is when you close your mouth and yet some of your upper teeth are sitting inside your lower teeth rather than on the outside. A crossbite can make your teeth wear down or chip. It can also make your gums start to recede or make little notches above your gum line. This kind of damage can lead to painful gum problems or even bone loss.
Many people worry about the cost of Clear Aligners, and so we have devised a number of payment plans to help you afford the right treatment with Clear Aligners.
Clear Aligners from £2.50 per day with our finance options.
Finance CalculatorClear Aligners treatment starts with a consultation with an Clear Aligners-trained doctor. Your doctor will evaluate your smile and then map out a precise, customized digital treatment plan that showcases the step-by-step transformation of your smile. Once you approve your plan, your unique aligners will be created.
You will wear each set of aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, changing to a new set of aligners every 1 to 2 weeks, as directed by your doctor. Each set of aligners will gently and gradually shift your teeth into place, according to your treatment plan, until you reach your beautiful new smile.
Depending on the complexity of your case, you could complete your treatment in as little as 6 months, but you’ll start seeing results in a matter of weeks.
Clear aligners are made of flexible plastic — specifically, a patented thermoplastic material called SmartTrack created exclusively for treatment.
Clear Aligner treatment is the process of wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten your teeth. No brackets and wires, and none of the restrictions that come with metal braces.
Clear aligners are made of flexible plastic — specifically, a patented thermoplastic material called SmartTrack created exclusively for treatment.
Your Clear Aligner Doctor will create a unique, digital treatment plan that maps out the exact movements of your teeth. Your clear aligners are then designed to apply the right amount of force to the right place at the right time based on your plan. Your Clear Aligner Doctor will be with you every step of the way to monitor your progress and ensure your aligners fit correctly.
Clear aligners are virtually invisible — people may not even notice you’re wearing them. You can remove them to eat and drink, to brush and floss, or for special occasions. There are no metal brackets or wires that could irritate your mouth or break.
Unlike other brands, clear aligners are made from patented SmartTrack material, which is more comfortable and provides a better fit.
Clear Aligners are also trimmed based on your gum line for comfort and appearance. As the most advanced clear aligner system in the world, we have successfully improved over 10 million smiles, including 1.4 million teen smiles.
Every smile is unique, which is why your Clear Aligner treatment starts with a consultation. During your consultation, your Clear Aligner Doctor will help you determine what Clear Aligner treatment could do for your smile. We cannot guarantee a particular treatment outcome, but encourage you to share your treatment goals with your Clear Aligner Doctor at your consultation.
Clear Aligner treatment can be a great solution for both adults and teens looking for a virtually invisible method to improve their smile. Our innovations and technological advancements make it possible to fix nearly all common teeth-straightening and bite issues, from simple to complex — all without interrupting your busy life. And, thanks to a discreet blue dot on the outside of teen aligners, parents can be sure their child is wearing their clear aligners enough.
The length of treatment depends on multiple factors, like how complex your case is and how often you wear your aligners. Your Clear Aligner Doctor will determine exactly how long your treatment could take based on your specific needs. On average, Clear Aligner treatment time is 12 to 18 months, though you can start seeing results in a matter of weeks.
Like other types of orthodontic treatment, the price of the Clear Aligner treatment depends on the complexity of your dental correction and your course of treatment.

Possibly. Clear Aligner Doctors are treating a significant number of patients with a combination of braces and clear aligners — consult your Clear Aligner Doctor to determine the best treatment approach for your smile.
Yes, clear aligners can treat nearly all common teeth-straightening issues, from simple to complex. Many people who formerly had braces choose Clear Aligner treatment as the discreet solution to improve their smile when they find that their teeth have shifted back.
It depends. Talk with your Clear Aligner Doctor about the dental work you’ve had done, including veneers and crowns, and he or she will evaluate your individual needs.
Clear aligners are designed to move each tooth individually. Because bridgework connects two or more teeth, clear aligners may not be effective.
Clear Aligner aligners are virtually invisible. Others may not even notice you’re wearing them, making Invisalign treatment a seamless fit with your lifestyle.
Yes, you can remove your aligners for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. You can take them off for special occasions, like a wedding, job interview, or for playing your favourite sport or instrument. Just remember to wear them 20 to 22 hours a day to get the best results.
None! clear aligners are removable, so there are no food restrictions at all (hello popcorn!). With traditional wires and brackets, there’s a long list of foods you unfortunately can’t enjoy, as they can damage or get stuck in your braces.
Clear Aligner treatment moves your teeth by applying gentle, constant force, but some people do feel temporary discomfort for the first few days of wearing a new set of aligners. Typically, people describe it as feeling “pressure” and it’s normal — it’s a sign your Invisalign clear aligners are working and transforming your smile.
Please see your Clear Aligner Doctor if you have any concerns or experience continued discomfort.
Yes. As your aligners gradually shift your teeth into their proper position, your gums are re-forming around each tooth as it moves. Be sure to talk to your Clear Aligner Doctor about any concerns.
You need to wear your aligners 20 to 22 hours a day to get the results you want.
It may take a couple of days for your tongue to get used to having your aligners in your mouth, and you may have a slight lisp. But this should disappear quickly.
We discourage smoking while wearing aligners because it can stain them.
No, gum will stick to your aligners. We recommend removing your aligners for all meals and snacks, including gum.
It is very unlikely that your aligners would ever fall out, no matter what you are doing: sleeping, talking, laughing, etc. clear aligners are designed to fit snugly around your teeth, so this should not be a cause for concern.
The answer depends on how long you’ve gone without wearing your aligners. If it’s only been a short time, your aligners should still fit, but they might feel uncomfortable. If it’s been a longer time, talk to your Clear Aligner Doctor about your unique situation.
The best way to clean your aligners is by brushing and rinsing them in lukewarm water and using the Clear Aligner Cleaning Crystals or special cleaning tablets. It’s important that you brush your teeth after each meal before re-inserting your aligners to maintain good oral hygiene.
Yes. That’s why it’s important to brush after every meal, before placing your aligners back in your mouth.
If you lose or break an aligner, immediately let your Clear Aligner Doctor know. Your Clear Aligner Doctor will work with you to ensure you stay on-track with your treatment plan, which may involve wearing a previous set of aligners, your next set of aligners, or ordering replacements aligners.
