Angel Aligners

Angel Aligners consist of a series of clear, custom-made aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their desired position over time. They are made of an anti-reflective medical-grade clear plastic, ensuring a discreet and comfortable treatment.

How do Angel Aligners work?

Here’s what you can expect when you choose Angel Aligners for your orthodontic treatment:

1. Digital scanning

We use an innovative 3D intraoral scanner to create an extremely accurate model of your smile. From this scan, we will create your bespoke treatment plan, and you will be able to view your expected smile results from start to finish.

2. Custom aligners

Angel Aligners will use your 3D scan to create a series of aligners unique to your smile. When directed, you will switch to a new set of aligners, gently shifting your teeth into position over the course of the treatment.

3. Dental Monitoring

Using the Dental Monitoring app, we can track your progress remotely, so you won’t need to come into our practice often for check-ups. With regular smile scans, we can advise you when to switch to your next set of aligners and make sure you are staying on track.

4. Your new smile

Once your treatment is completed, you will be left with a straighter, healthier smile. We will provide you with a retainer to help maintain your beautiful new smile.
