Your Personalised Plan

Treatment Planning

Every smile is unique. That's why we create a completely personalised treatment plan designed specifically for you.

01

Comprehensive Assessment

We examine your teeth, bite and jaw alignment. X-rays and photographs help us understand your unique situation.

02

3D Smile Simulation

Using advanced software, we create a digital simulation of your treatment. For aligner patients, you'll see exactly how each stage moves your teeth.

03

Your Treatment Plan

Your specialist designs a custom plan tailored to your goals and lifestyle. We'll walk you through exactly what to expect.

The Big Day

Your Fitting Appointment

This is when your journey truly begins. Here's what to expect when you come in to have your appliance fitted.

1

Arrive & Relax

Your fitting appointment typically takes 60-90 minutes. We'll make sure you're comfortable before we begin.

Aligners

For aligner patients, this appointment is usually shorter - around 30-45 minutes.

Braces

For brace patients, we'll prepare your teeth and ensure everything is ready for fitting.

2

Fitting Your Appliance

For braces, we carefully bond brackets to your teeth and thread the archwire. For aligners, we'll fit small attachments and may use a technique called IPR to create tiny amounts of space between crowded teeth, allowing them to move into position.

Aligners

You'll try on your aligners to ensure a perfect fit and learn how to insert and remove them properly.

Braces

Each bracket is precisely positioned based on your treatment plan for optimal tooth movement.

3

Setting Up Remote Monitoring

We'll set up the remote monitoring app on your phone and show you how to take weekly scans from home. You'll learn how to check if your treatment is on track and when to move to your next aligners.

Aligners

The app lets you message us directly with any questions - no need to call or wait for your next appointment.

Braces

Remote monitoring is primarily used for aligner patients, but we'll discuss the best way to track your progress.

4

Learning the Ropes

We'll show you exactly how to care for your appliance, what to expect in the first few days and answer any questions.

Aligners

You'll learn about wear time, cleaning and when to change to your next aligner.

Braces

We'll cover brushing techniques, foods to avoid and how to handle any discomfort.

5

Your Journey Begins

Leave with everything you need to start treatment confidently. We're always just a phone call away if you need us.

Aligners

Take home your first sets of aligners plus detailed instructions for the weeks ahead.

Braces

Receive your care kit with all the tools you need to keep your braces clean and comfortable.

After Fitting

What to Expect

  • Your teeth may feel tight or tender for the first few days - this is normal
  • Any discomfort typically subsides within a week as you adjust
  • Over-the-counter pain relief can help if needed
  • Soft foods are recommended for the first few days
  • Your speech may be slightly affected initially but will quickly return to normal
