Invisalign is the world's most widely used clear aligner brand, backed by the largest clinical dataset in the field. You'll find it offered by both specialist orthodontists and trained general dentists in Hackney Central. Digital scanning replaces messy impressions and feeds straight into the treatment plan.
How Invisalign Works Under the Hood
SmartTrack material is Align Technology's proprietary aligner plastic, engineered to apply consistent, gentle force across planned movements. It's designed to fit more precisely and hold predictable force over the life of each tray.
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 Hackney Central 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.
