Straighten teeth
Clear aligners are a series of nearly invisible, removable trays, each moving your teeth a small step towards their planned position. They straighten teeth without wires or brackets and you can take them out to eat, drink and clean your teeth.

How it works
We scan your teeth, plan every movement on screen and show you the planned result. You receive a series of aligners, each worn for one to two weeks, and move to the next in the series. Small tooth-coloured attachments may be added to help certain movements. At the end, retainers hold the result.
Your options
Step by step
Before anything starts
After the examination you get a written plan: your options, what each step involves and how many visits it takes — itemised part by part. You decide before anything begins, and there's no pressure to start that day.
“The best part was their honesty. They only suggested what was truly needed and explained every option before treatment.”Dewesh Kumar · Aligners and implants · verified on Practo
Aftercare
Wear the aligners 20 to 22 hours a day, taking them out only to eat, drink anything other than water, and clean your teeth. Brush before putting them back, clean the aligners daily, and keep them in their case. New trays can feel tight for a couple of days.
Aligners only work if they're planned and monitored carefully. Our dentists assess your bite and gums first and tell you honestly when braces would do a better job.
