What are Smilelign braces?

The convenience of the Smilelign system has made it the choice of over half a million people. In fact, Smilelign has been effective in giving hundreds of thousands of people amazing new smiles.

If you have been looking into orthodontic treatments, you may have come across Smilelign before and wondered what it’s all about. It is generally acknowledged that whilst braces help to improve your smile in the long run, one of their main drawbacks is their appearance in the short run.

Traditionally, braces are made using metal, plastic or ceramic brackets. These brackets are fixed in place to the front of the tooth and a wire is then held between them. Whilst braces are clinically proven to deliver very effective results, many prospective patients are afraid to wear them as they do not like the idea of their appearance during treatment.

We offer a solution as our dentists can fit you with Smilelign which will give you a beautiful smile as conventional braces will, but without compromising your appearance during the treatment.

Smilelign offers the patient a series of clear, removable aligners which are changed every 2-3 weeks. There is no tightening to be done, no changing of wires and no elastic bands to get in the way. Instead, all of the adjustments are made with one new aligner every few weeks.

Since the aligners are clear they are hardly visible in the mouth at all and will fit perfectly against your teeth. As each aligner is individually moulded to specifically fit each patient, Smilelign is much more comfortable than conventional braces.

Smilelign programme

Smilelign offers the complete cosmetic orthodontic programme. We will begin with the most important part of straightening your teeth with the series of Smilelign aligners. 

How long do treatments take?

The time needed for Smilelign to work its magic will depend on the severity of the patients case. This means that cost will also vary from patient to patient as some people will need many aligners and others will require just a few.
