A series of custom-made, near-invisible plastic trays can move teeth gradually into position. Plenty of patients across Inverhadden choose them precisely because day-to-day life barely changes. The trays are made in advance from a 3D plan, and you progress through them a fortnight at a time. They suit mild to moderate crowding, spacing and bite issues particularly well.
Aligners vs Fixed Braces in Inverhadden
Aligners win on aesthetics and convenience; braces win on being hands-off. Fixed appliances work continuously without relying on you remembering to put anything back in.
On cost, aligners in Inverhadden are usually similar to or slightly above fixed braces for equivalent complexity. Simple cases may use budget systems; complex full-arch cases cost more. Always confirm retainers and refinements are in the fee.
Are You a Suitable Candidate for Clear Aligners in Inverhadden?
Most everyday alignment problems are within scope. The exceptions are severe rotations, big bite corrections and skeletal cases, where braces give more predictable control.
Good gum health is a prerequisite, and consistent wear is essential — patients who can't commit to 20–22 hours a day are usually steered towards fixed braces instead.
The reliable way to confirm suitability is a consultation with an orthodontist in Inverhadden. Many practices offer a free initial assessment or photo-based screening to give you a preliminary view before you book.

Stage 1 — Initial Assessment
The journey in Inverhadden usually opens with an assessment — a photo-based remote review or an in-person exam.

This stage decides whether aligners are appropriate and how complex the case is.
