Removable, near-invisible trays that straighten teeth over months rather than years.
What is involved
Mild to moderate crowding, spacing and relapse after earlier braces
A series of clear trays, each worn for a week or two, that move teeth in small increments. They are removable for eating and cleaning, which is why most adults choose them over fixed braces. Treatment length depends on how far the teeth have to move; a scan and a digital plan at the assessment shows you the projected result before you commit.

Every case is different. These are examples of work carried out here, not a prediction of your own result — that can only be given after an examination.
How it works
01
A full look at the teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues, with the radiographs that are due. Nothing is treated at this appointment.
02
We go through what we found, what the options are, and what each one costs. You take the plan away; there is no pressure to decide in the chair.
03
Booked in the order that matters clinically — pain and disease first, then function, then appearance. Longer appointments if you are nervous.
04
A check that the work has settled, then a recall interval set by your own risk rather than a fixed six months.
