Removable clear aligners are now a mainstream choice for discreet teeth straightening. Among Hulcott patients, they are the default request for anyone self-conscious about braces. 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
Treatment begins with a clinical assessment and usually a digital scan. Planning software maps each stage of tooth movement, and a full series of custom trays is manufactured before treatment starts.
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 Hulcott are typically every 6–11 weeks. Each appointment reviews how the teeth are tracking and issues the next batch, with remote monitoring offered by some providers between visits.
