Your personalised treatment plan will be implemented through a series of clear aligners, each specifically designed to gradually move your teeth into their optimal position.

During your treatment journey, we'll schedule periodic check-ups to monitor your progress and provide you with your next sets of aligners. These appointments allow us to ensure your teeth are moving as planned and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

| Initial Wear | Adjustment period of 2-3 days with each new set |
| Regular Use | Comfortable, clear aligners that fit precisely to your teeth |
| Progress Monitoring | Regular check-ups to ensure optimal results |

SureSmile Flex and Force aligners are two distinct types of clear aligners that differ primarily in their material composition and treatment applications. Flex aligners are made from a thinner, more flexible material ideal for mild to moderate orthodontic cases, whilst Force aligners use a more rigid construction designed for complex tooth movements and severe misalignment.
The key distinction lies in their intended use: Flex aligners are particularly suited for patients requiring subtle adjustments and those who prioritise comfort, while Force aligners provide more robust tooth movement capabilities for cases involving significant rotation or vertical movements.
At London Dental Specialists, our orthodontic team will assess your specific needs during your consultation to determine which aligner type would be most appropriate for your treatment goals.
The initial consultation process for SureSmile clear aligners at London Dental Specialists begins with a comprehensive oral examination and digital scanning of your teeth. During this first appointment, our specialist orthodontist will use advanced 3D imaging technology to create precise digital impressions of your mouth, eliminating the need for uncomfortable traditional moulds.
Following your scan, we'll discuss your smile goals and create a personalised treatment plan using SureSmile's advanced treatment planning software. You'll be able to preview your projected results through a virtual simulation of how your teeth will move throughout the treatment process.
Once you decide to proceed with treatment, your custom aligners will be manufactured using the digital impressions taken during your consultation. Treatment typically begins within 2-3 weeks after your initial consultation, with regular check-ups scheduled every 6-8 weeks to monitor your progress.
