Invisalign in Cheddleton

Invisalign is the world's most widely used clear aligner brand, backed by the largest clinical dataset in the field. Several Cheddleton practices carry Invisalign certification at varying provider tiers. Every stage of movement is modelled and reviewed by your clinician before manufacture begins.

How Invisalign Works Under the Hood

SmartTrack material is Align's own aligner polymer, built to keep force consistent from day one to day fourteen of each tray and to fit more snugly than generic materials.

ClinCheck software produces the digital treatment plan — a stage-by-stage simulation your clinician approves before manufacture, and one you can usually see for yourself up front.

iTero scanning is the digital scanner that captures your teeth in minutes without messy putty. The scan drives the plan and is reused at progress visits; it's standard at most Cheddleton Invisalign practices.

Attachments are discreet composite nubs placed on certain teeth so the tray can achieve rotations and vertical shifts it couldn't manage on shape alone. Nearly all cases use some.
