A discreet aligner course

If you have ruled out braces because of how they look, removable aligners are the alternative in our orthodontics in London. They irritate the mouth less than fixed brackets and come out for eating and cleaning. Dr Papagalani assesses which aligner system fits your case.

Specialist planning for your aligners

We diagnose first, so the tooth movements are mapped before the first tray is made, and the fee is itemised at the consultation so you know what you are paying for.

If 3M Clarity is not the right fit, the alternatives are Spark clear aligners, ClearCorrect, SureSmile and Simpli5.

Who 3M Clarity aligners suit

Patients who do not want visible braces during their working life and can wear aligners for the required hours each day, since compliance decides the result. If you are unsure whether aligners fit your case at all, see braces and aligners: which option fits. The specialist orthodontist confirms suitability and timeline at your first visit. If dental visits make you anxious, tell us when you book.

Your path to straighter teeth

Aligner suitability assessment

We examine your teeth and bite and discuss the expected timeline. If a different system fits better, we discuss Invisalign Full.

Digital mapping and planning

We scan your mouth and plan the movement of each tooth, so you can see the projected result before the first set is made.

Wearing your aligners

You wear each set for the set hours each day and change on schedule. Reviews confirm the movement is following the plan.

Refining the final position

Near the end we check the bite and order refinement trays if any tooth needs more.

Securing the result

We fit retainers to hold the new positions and give you a wear and cleaning schedule.

How we plan the movement

We plan with 3D imaging, which lets us show you a preview of the planned movement before you begin. Treatment is led by Dr Kia Papagalani, specialist orthodontist.

Alongside 3M Clarity we provide the Invisalign range: Invisalign Full, Invisalign Lite, Invisalign Teen, Invisalign First and Invisalign Express for minor corrections and slight relapse.
