Aligner

Aligners are clear, transparent plastic trays custom-shaped to fit your teeth.

Aligners provide gentle, gradual movement to guide your teeth into a better position for an improved smile. These ‘U’-shaped trays are clipped onto your teeth and are a modern alternative to traditional braces.

What Are the Advantages of Aligners?

  • Invisible and discreet.
  • No dietary restrictions.
  • Better oral and gum hygiene.
  • Fewer clinic visits.
  • Painless and comfortable.

Is It Invisible, and How Long Should I Wear It?

Yes, aligners are virtually invisible. Each tray is worn for 14 days before switching to the next one. Over time, the trays gently align your teeth.

Why Aligners, and Do You Need Them?

Aligners are a preferred choice for routine orthodontic treatment. If you feel your smile needs improvement, feel self-conscious during conversations, or lack confidence in public settings, aligners may be the solution for you.

How Do You Get Started?

To begin your aligner journey, visit Richardsons Face Hospital or book an orthodontic appointment. Our certified orthodontists will examine your dentition and create a customized treatment plan. After addressing your concerns and discussing options, we start your treatment.

How Do Aligners Work?

What is the Procedure, and How Long Will It Take?

During your first appointment, we use digital intraoral scanners to capture high-precision images of your teeth and bite. These scans are processed through advanced orthodontic planning software to simulate tooth movements and calculate the number of aligner trays needed.

Treatment duration varies:

  • Minor cases
    4–6 months.
  • Complex cases
    Longer, depending on tooth movement.

Is It Safe? Will I Get a Good Smile?

Yes, aligner treatment is completely safe. At Richardsons Face Hospital, our in-house aligners ensure high accuracy, complete customization, and patient convenience. Unlike mass-produced aligners, our approach prioritizes quality and results, guaranteeing a beautifully aligned smile.

When Will I Get My Aligners?

After approving your digital treatment plan, aligners are 3D-printed in-house. The trays are thermoformed, cut, and polished for a perfect fit. This process ensures quick turnaround times and precision.

Is It Painful? Are There Additional Procedures?

Aligner treatment is painless, with minimal steps like:

  • Attachments: Enhance tray grip.
  • Orthodontic buttons and elastics: Aid specific movements.
  • IPR (Interproximal Reduction): Creates space for proper alignment. These steps are performed at the start of your treatment.
