Discreet Teeth Straightening in Corsiehill

Removable clear aligners are now a mainstream choice for discreet teeth straightening. Among Corsiehill patients, they are the default request for anyone self-conscious about braces.

How Clear Aligners Work

A good outcome rests on three things: a sound digital plan, precisely made trays, and consistent wear. Orthodontists in Corsiehill model each tooth's path stage by stage before a single tray is produced.

The trays must be in for 20–22 hours daily. Patients who hit that target finish on schedule; those who don't often need refinements to complete movements the main course missed.

Review appointments in Corsiehill are typically every 7–10 weeks. Visits are less frequent than with fixed braces — the clinician confirms progress, issues trays, and adjusts the plan if the teeth aren't tracking as designed.
