Clear aligners are custom-made orthodontic devices made from transparent medical-grade plastic moulded to fit your teeth snugly. Unless you tell someone you are wearing clear aligners, most people won’t even notice them. Also, there’s not usually any lasting tell-tale impact on your speech either. However, you may notice a slight lisp for the first couple of days as your mouth adjusts to the device.
Throughout the course of your treatment, you’ll change aligners several times. This is because the clear aligners process works by gently placing pressure on your teeth. That pressure then transfers to your tooth socket and jaw to help move your teeth into their desired position. The process can be slightly uncomfortable at times, but most patients report it is relatively pain-free, and any discomfort fades once their mouth has adjusted to the device.
Clear aligners are comfortable to wear and are removable, which means you are able to eat and drink anything you like and can still brush your teeth normally. After meals, make sure you brush your teeth and put the aligners back in as soon as possible. To achieve the best results, it’s recommended to wear them for 20-22 hours a day.
Patients need to wear their clear aligners for several months. The average treatment duration of patients is six months, but it varies from patient to patient.
They have cool options for straightening your teeth while you sleep (Nightlong Caspersmile) or all day (All Day Caspersmile). Whether you need treatment for one or both rows of teeth, they've got you covered with custom plans.
With Caspersmile it is possible to do everything from the comfort of your home, starting with a 30-second free online assessment. Clear aligners technology works by having custom-fitted trays made for your teeth. This can be done via an at-home impression kit.
If you order the at-home impression kit, it will be sent directly to your door. Once completed and returned to us, Caspersmile’s in-house dental team will assess your impressions and send you a treatment plan that includes 3D imaging of the changes you can expect to see in your teeth. You can then order your aligners and have them shipped straight to you.
Patients receive everything they need in the Impression Kit, including easy to follow instructions, disposable gloves, and even a return postage label. The Caspersmile team have thought of everything. They are even on-hand via a video call to provide support if you have any questions.
Caspersmile has a team of dental industry professionals, which means you’re never alone during your teeth straightening process. Anytime you need support or assistance, the team is just a phone call or email away.
The longer your aligners are in your mouth each day, the better. You can take them out for eating, drinking and teeth cleaning, but you can expect to be wearing them for 20-22 hours each day. Failing to do so may add time to your overall teeth straightening treatment, or worse, impact how good your teeth look in the end.
There is also a NightOnly option available that lets patients wear their clear aligners for 8-10 hours overnight instead. Treatment duration may vary, but the Caspersmile team will discuss this with you.
Caspersmile believes that price shouldn’t prevent people from having straighter teeth and the smile they have always dreamed of. Caspersmile clear aligners are just £625 - £875 and can be even more affordable with regular special offers and discounts for groups like military veterans or teens. Payment plans are available for those who prefer to pay in installments for treatment.
With traditional orthodontics like braces, or clear aligners from your regular dentist, you may have to visit their clinic as often as every 4-6 weeks.
Caspersmile patients love the fact that there are no ongoing appointments required to complete their teeth straightening. Of course, it’s still important to stick to your regular dental check-ups and cleaning appointments during this time. You want to look after your newly straightened teeth, and those visits are a crucial step in ensuring that your teeth are as healthy as they look!
