Standard online brands don’t use tooth aligner attachments which means their results are limited. Our attachments use advanced technology that allows the aligners to grip the teeth for more accurate tooth movement. The attachments are discrete and will not damage your enamel. At the end of treatment the attachments are removed. Our aligners are also designed to be clearer and provide a comfortable treatment experience compared to other aligner brands in the market.

Urban Smile clear aligners are a series of invisible, removable, plastic aligners that gently move your teeth each week. We use advanced technology and purposely apply discrete attachments to your teeth that allow the aligners to grip your teeth for accurate tooth movement.

In your first appointment, we will take a 3D digital scan of your teeth, which is used by one of our specialist orthodontists to create a treatment plan and a series of clear aligners. The clear aligners are then developed and moulded in accordance with the treatment plan. The combination of discrete attachments on your teeth and the force applied by the aligner each week gently straightens your teeth to their desired position.

22 hours per day, and approximately changing to a new aligner weekly. Depending on the movement your teeth require, treatment can take approximately 6-24 months.

You will receive your first initial aligner box which can include around 10 – 30 aligners, depending on your estimated treatment time.

The clear aligners we use are made with TruGEN™. This technology is designed to provide more comfort and is clearer with minimal stains compared to the other aligner companies. Urban Smile Clear Aligners are BPA, mercury, latex, and phthalate-free!

It is possible to treat your smile if you have a dental implant and you may be a candidate for clear aligners.

The typical treatment plan can last approximately 12-18 months. At Urban Smile it’s our priority to make sure you obtain your desired smile and bite. We don’t promise 6 months results as for most people their desired smile is not obtainable during this timeframe.
