What it involves

Clear aligners are a series of removable, transparent trays made to move teeth in small steps. You change to a new tray every so often as planned. Treatment is planned from scans or impressions of your teeth and supervised by a dentist or orthodontist.

Who it is for

Aligners may suit people with mild to moderate crowding or spacing who can wear them for most of the day and are willing to keep up good cleaning habits. More complex tooth movements may need fixed braces, so the clinician will assess what is suitable.

How long it usually takes

Treatment commonly lasts many months, depending on the case, with check-ups along the way. A retainer is usually needed afterwards.

What to expect

You will have an examination, scans or impressions, a treatment plan and trays supplied in stages. You wear each set for the time advised and attend reviews. Treatment should be supervised by a registered dental professional.

Aftercare

Remove aligners to eat and drink anything other than water, and clean your teeth before putting them back. Clean the trays as advised. Wear retainers afterwards as directed. Contact the clinician if trays crack, no longer fit or cause persistent pain.

When to seek it

Seek an assessment if you are considering straightening your teeth. Be cautious of services that do not include an in-person examination by a registered clinician.

What affects the cost

Cost depends on the complexity of the case, the number of trays, the length of treatment, review visits and retainers. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
