Not sure what Active Aligners are?  

 

Think clear braces.

 
Prescribed by your dental professional, Active Aligners are clear aligners that have been developed specifically for aligning your teeth in a predictable, smooth and comfortable manner. Instead of metal brackets, wires or screws, you’ll be wearing a clear, high quality plastic material to achieve your desired results.
 
Clear aligners work on basic orthodontic principles.  They are used for the correction of crooked teeth, gaps or rotation, while achieving the desired results in an organised and planned fashion.
 
These customised trays are transparent and move the tooth in the desired direction. This is achieved through wearing a series of Active Aligners, each for 22 hours a day, 1 to 2 weeks at a time (one stage), which move the teeth per stage until their optimal alignment has been reached. 
With an average treatment of 6 months to a new confident smile, it's no wonder why more and more people are turning to Active Aligners as their clear choice for clear braces.  Active Aligners work on basic orthodontic principles. They are used for the correction of crooked teeth, gaps or rotation, while achieving the desired results in an organised and planned fashion. These customised trays are "invisible" and move the tooth in the desired direction. This is achieved through wearing a series of Active Aligners.
 
Historically, pricing for aligner therapy meant most people couldn't afford it.  Thankfully to advancements in technology and business, efficiencies it allows us to be  affordable without compromising on quality.  Treatments require professional supervision as orthodontic or dental procedures may be required, which only your dental professional is able to perform.  Interproximal Reduction (IPR), a regular orthodontic procedure where small amounts of tooth surface between teeth are polished to create space to fix crowding or odd shaped teeth.  Buttons - Attachments, small amounts of composite bonded to teeth to give the clear aligners force or traction to push or pull on which assists in the rotation and movement of teeth.
 
The Active Aligners team pay meticulous attention to detail, combining the latest technology with expert treatment planning and are constantly pioneering and researching to produce world class Active Aligners at an affordable price with no compromises in quality.
