Orthodontics and Clear Aligners

Clear Aligners with Smilelign – For repositioning the teeth

Orthodontics is a way of moving the teeth into a more favourable position. This treatment is not only to straighten the teeth for aesthetic reasons but also for functional reasons too. We offer a range of orthodontic braces however our most popular braces would be our clear aligners (Smilelign).

Our Smilelign clear aligners are our most favourable braces as they are able to move the teeth gradually, whilst being virtually invisible. They are an excellent alternative to traditional braces that are glued to the teeth (also known as train tracks). You can also remove the aligners to clean your teeth, meaning that you maintain good oral health without the need for additional hygiene appointments.

Smilelign consists of a series of virtually invisible, removable braces/aligners – that are changed every three weeks. Treatment can take as little as 12 weeks, depending on the alterations required. Each aligner is carefully designed specifically for your teeth and moves them in small stages, little by little, week by week, until they have reached the final position.

At DrBK, we only use the best laboratories in the UK for manufacturing your braces. During your dental consultation, our experts will discuss the most appropriate orthodontic treatment for your desired outcome.

What does the treatment involve?

There are 4 simple steps to getting your perfect smile with clear aligners (Smilelign) at DrBK:

1) Dental examination: This is traditionally when impressions will be taken of your teeth using a putty-type material. However, thanks to our 3D intra-oral scanner, we are able to easily create a 3D model of your teeth without the use of unpleasant impressions, by simply scanning your teeth! Your braces will then begin to be custom-made at our laboratory by our experts.

2) During your next appointment, you will be given a pre-aligner (an example brace), along with the ability to see your proposed before and afters of your teeth. If you’re happy, we will begin your treatment.

3) Once we have received your clear aligner braces, we will monitor your treatment as you progress through the aligners. Each aligner, marginally different to its predecessor and successor, moves your teeth a fraction of a millimetre at a time (0.3mm). Our technicians scan your models and, using our specialised software, meticulously plan your tooth movements. These are then changed every 3 weeks.

4) At the end of treatment, it is important that you use a retainer to keep your teeth in their new position. You can choose from a fixed or removable retainer.
