For patients who prioritise discretion, clear aligners are an effective alternative to traditional braces. In Angram Grange, they appeal most to professionals and adults who prefer a treatment few people will notice. You wear the set in order, each one nudging the teeth a fraction closer to the planned result. For straightforward to moderately complex cases, results can match fixed braces.
How Clear Aligners Work
A good outcome rests on three things: a sound digital plan, precisely made trays, and consistent wear. Orthodontists in Angram Grange model each tooth's path stage by stage before a single tray is produced.
Wear time matters above all else: 20–22 hours per day. Attachments — small tooth-coloured bumps bonded to certain teeth — help the trays grip for trickier movements like rotations.
Review appointments in Angram Grange are typically every 7–12 weeks. At each visit the clinician checks progress and hands over the next trays; some practices add app-based remote monitoring to cut in-person visits.
