One of the most important steps in orthodontic treatment is the initial assessment. This includes:
A dental examination is required to check the condition of your teeth & gums to ensure you are fit for orthodontic treatment. Obtaining records is used to create a personalised 3D video for demonstration purposes. This is called a “Spark Simulation”
The Spark Simulation is a short animation that allows you to see your predicted outcome and includes the number of aligners necessary to achieve your smile goal. If you are happy with the final result, the production of your aligners will be authorised.
On this visit, the clinician will fit your aligners and provide you with a set of instructions tailored to your specific treatment. We will book you provisional visits so we can monitor how your treatment is progressing.
When undergoing orthodontic treatment, it is crucial to keep your teeth and gums healthy. For best results, we recommend regular visits to our hygienist for a professional clean, as well as maintaining good oral hygiene at home.
(the remaining balance will be spread throughout the course of treatment)
Once your desired smile has been achieved, your attachments will be removed. You will need to wear retainers as instructed by your dentist to prevent your teeth from shifting back into their original place.
Fixed retainer consists of a thin metal wire which is permanently bonded to the back of your front six teeth – £150 per arch
Removeable retainer is similar to your Spark Aligner and consists of a clear hard plastic which covers all of your teeth – £150 per arch
