Invisible Aligners Available in Ty-draw

For patients who prioritise discretion, clear aligners are an effective alternative to traditional braces. Among Ty-draw patients, they are the default request for anyone self-conscious about braces.

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.

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.
