Clear aligners in Sturminster Newton

A discreet way to straighten your smile

Clear aligners straighten teeth using a series of custom-made, clear trays that gradually move your teeth according to your treatment plan. Their discreet appearance makes them an option for people who would prefer a less noticeable way to straighten their smile.

Crowded teeth

Clear aligners may be suitable for teeth that overlap or feel crowded, depending on your individual needs.

Gaps between teeth

Aligners may also help to close gaps between teeth. Gowtham will assess your teeth, bite and oral health first.

Removable and discreet

Aligners are removable for eating and cleaning, but need to be worn consistently as instructed by your dentist.

Suitability depends on your individual needs. Gowtham will assess your teeth, bite and oral health before recommending treatment.
