Removable clear aligners are now a mainstream choice for discreet teeth straightening. In The Coppice, they appeal most to professionals and adults who prefer a treatment few people will notice.

How Do Aligners Compare to Braces?
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.
For complex movements — large rotations, significant overbite correction, extraction cases — fixed braces tend to be more predictable. For mild-to-moderate cases, well-fitted aligners deliver comparable results with more comfort.
