Alighers

How we can help you?

Alighers is an innovative and so popular orthodontic system that allows you to discreetly straighten your teeth and correct bite issues without changing your daily routine. In contrast to traditional braces, Alighers employs transparent aligners, which are individually produced, detachable trays. Your teeth may be moved using these aligners in a gentle, accurate and comfortable manner, giving you a gorgeous smile without the need for unsightly metal brackets and wires. This method is ideal for people who want to improve their smile  without uncomfortable braces. We are waiting for you at our London clinic.

First consultation and 3D Scan

The first stage is a consultation with the dentist or orthodontist. During this appointment, they will assess your teeth and produce a 3D digital scan of your smile. It helps in visualising the anticipated outcomes prior to the start of treatment.

Personalised Treatment Plan

A customised treatment plan that shows each phase of tooth movement and the final outcome is developed using scans and impressions. A treatment time frame estimate will also be provided to you.

Custom-Made Aligners

Each set of aligners is made from biocompatible, safe plastic that is pleasant and smooth for clients daily usage. A particular stage of tooth movement is targeted by the design of each aligner.

Aligner Wearing and Replacement

You will replace your aligners every 1-2 weeks. You get closer to your objective with each pair of aligners’ controlled, progressive movement.

Regular
Checkups

You will visit your orthodontist for checks approximately every 6 – 8 weeks to keep track of your progress. These visits help to control the effectiveness of tooth mobility and any necessary changes in treatment plan.

Retention
Stage

Once treatment is over and the desired results have been achieved your orthodontist may suggest a retainer, a unique tool that helps maintain the outcomes by keeping teeth from moving back to their original position.

How Long Do You Need to Wear Aligners?

The length of time of Aligners treatment is decided individually at a consultation with the orthodontist and is based on the original state of your teeth. The typical course of treatment lasts 6 to 18 months. Aligners must be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day in order to produce the desired effects; they should only be taken off for brushing, flossing, eating and drinking (apart from water). Aligners should be replaced every 1-2 weeks to guarantee a constant progressive movement of teeth into the proper position.

Why are Alighers so popular?

  • Almost Invisible: You may feel comfortable in any situation because thanks to the transparent aligners the teeth-straightening procedure is almost invisible.
  • Comfort and Less Irritation: Compared to metal braces, aligners are more pleasant since they are made of smooth plastic that won’t irritate your cheeks or gums.
  • Removable Aligners: You may freely eat all of your favourite meals and clean, floss your teeth as usual with the detachable aligners.
  • Fewer Appointments: Compared to traditional braces, Aligners treatment usually necessitates fewer trips to the orthodontist, which is an advantage for those with busy schedules.
  • Advanced 3D Technology: 3D modelling and scanning enable accurate planning of your treatment and provide noticeable outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wearing aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day is recommended for best outcomes; they should only be taken out for eating, drinking (apart from water), and doing dental hygiene tasks like brushing and flossing.

Since Alighers aligners are composed of transparent plastic, they are practically invisible on your teeth. Most people won’t notice you’re wearing aligners, providing a discreet treatment option.
Many orthodontic problems, ranging from minor bite misalignment to more complicated situations, can be resolved with Aligners. But in really complicated cases, speaking with an orthodontist will help you decide if Alighers is suitable for you.

When eating or drinking anything other than water, aligners should be taken out to avoid damage or discoloration, if this is not done the food particles being stuck between the aligner and your teeth.

Rinse your aligners with warm water and, if necessary, use a gentle brush to clean. Additionally, Alighers provides specialised cleaning solutions to preserve the hygiene and clarity of the aligners. But avoid hot water since it might cause the aligners to deform.

For the first few days after beginning a new set of aligners, some patients could feel a little pressure or pain. This is typical while your teeth are being moved by the aligners. Usually, the discomfort goes away in a few days.

Contact with your orthodontist immediately if you misplace or break an aligner. Until a replacement aligner becomes available, they could advise you wearing the prior aligner or going to the next set.

Yes, using retainers after completing Alighers is important to maintaining your results, like with any other dental treatment. Your orthodontist will give advice about the  duration and frequency of retainer wear.

It is not advised during treatment because whitening might cause uneven tooth colour. For an even outcome, we recommended whitening after treatment.
