We listen closely to your concerns and carry out a full examination of your teeth, bite, and overall oral health to ensure the treatment is tailored precisely to you.

When your aligners are ready, we’ll guide you through how to wear and care for them. We’ll also apply any small, tooth-coloured attachments needed to help guide your teeth into place with precision. You’ll receive several sets of aligners at once to keep you on track between appointments. We’ll typically see you every 6–8 weeks to monitor progress and keep things moving smoothly.
Discreet, comfortable, and custom to you—clear aligners are a modern solution for achieving the confident smile you’ve always wanted.
Clear aligners are a discreet and removable alternative to metal braces, designed to gradually move your teeth into a straighter position using a series of custom-made trays.
Treatment begins with a detailed consultation and 3D scan of your teeth. From there, a personalised plan is created to gently guide your teeth into alignment. You'll wear each set of aligners for 20–22 hours a day, changing trays every 1–2 weeks, depending on your plan.
