Orthodontics Dentistry · St Albans
Discreet, removable clear aligners are a popular alternative to metal braces — particularly for adults who want to straighten their teeth without anyone knowing. Our experienced dentist in St Albans plans every case carefully using digital technology to deliver predictable, beautiful results. Your teeth are scanned using the state-of-the-art Trios scanner, so there are no messy impressions.
Clear aligners are a series of custom-made, transparent plastic trays that fit snugly over your teeth. Each set is worn for around 1–2 weeks before swapping to the next, with each tray moving your teeth slightly closer to their final position. Most patients wear them 20–22 hours a day, only removing them to eat and brush. As your trusted dentist in St Albans, we monitor progress at regular check-ins throughout your treatment.
Most adult cases at our St Albans clinic take between 4 and 12 months. Once your teeth are in their ideal position, we provide both fixed retainers (a thin wire bonded behind your front teeth) and removable retainers to keep your smile stable for years to come. You can find out more about clear aligners in St Albans on our practice website.
