Removable Clear Aligners in Norbiton

A series of custom-made, near-invisible plastic trays can move teeth gradually into position. Plenty of patients across Norbiton choose them precisely because day-to-day life barely changes.

The Clear Aligner Process Explained

A good outcome rests on three things: a sound digital plan, precisely made trays, and consistent wear. Orthodontists in Norbiton 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 Norbiton are typically every 8–12 weeks. At each visit the clinician checks progress and hands over the next trays; some practices add app-based remote monitoring to cut in-person visits.
