Like Invisalign, our aligners closely fit, exerting gentle pressure to shift teeth discreetly, mimicking braces’ effectiveness without the stigma.

Rising in popularity, clear aligners offer superior comfort compared to traditional braces. There’s no tightening required, and their discreet appearance is less noticeable. Every few weeks, your aligners are replaced, gradually achieving perfectly positioned teeth by the time you reach the final set.

Our orthodontic expert captures impressions and photos of your teeth. With this data, a digital plan is crafted to illustrate the gradual movement of your teeth during treatment.

Tailored aligners exert precise pressure at each stage. Once crafted, you can commence treatment promptly, with continuous monitoring by your dentist throughout the process.

As the alignment progresses gradually, discomfort is minimal. While some may feel tenderness, particularly when transitioning to a new aligner, severe pain is rare. To minimise discomfort, it’s advised to wear the aligners consistently throughout the day, removing them only for eating.

This approach not only reduces the likelihood of pain but also enhances the effectiveness of the treatment. Rest assured, we’re here to assist if any issues arise.

For optimal results, you should wear your clear aligners for 20-22 hours daily. Remove them only for eating, drinking (except water), and brushing your teeth. At Ark Dentistry, we emphasise consistent wear to ensure your teeth straightening treatment progresses efficiently, helping you achieve straighter teeth in the shortest possible time.

You should always remove your clear aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water, as food and beverages (even soft drinks) can damage or stain them.
This practice preserves the integrity of your invisible aligners and supports effective teeth alignment throughout your treatment.

Yes, it’s recommended to brush your teeth before reinserting your aligners for teeth. Food particles left in your mouth can make the aligners dirty, potentially causing bad odours or oral health issues. Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for a successful teeth straightening journey at Ark Dentistry.

Wearing clear aligners only at night will not provide the necessary tooth movement for a straighter smile. For best results, wear them for 20-22 hours per day. Night-only wear, such as with night braces, may significantly delay or prevent achieving your desired teeth alignment. Our team will guide you on proper wear to avoid setbacks.

After completing your clear aligner treatment, your teeth’s supporting bones need time to stabilize. Without retainers, your teeth may shift back to their original position. At Ark Dentistry, we recommend wearing invisible retainers full-time for at least six months, followed by a schedule tailored by your dentist to maintain your straight teeth.

The number of visits depends on your personalized treatment plan, but clear aligners typically require fewer appointments than traditional braces. At Ark Dentistry, we’ll outline the expected visits during your free consultation, ensuring a convenient experience for those seeking clear aligners in Huddersfield.

Our clear aligners are made from virtually invisible material, making them a discreet choice for teeth straightening. While not completely invisible, they are far less noticeable than metal braces or ceramic braces, allowing you to confidently pursue invisible teeth aligners without drawing attention.
