They are nearly invisible and designed to straighten teeth without traditional braces."},{"question":"What dental problems can clear aligners fix?","answer":"Clear aligners can improve mild to moderate crowding, spacing, crooked teeth, and certain bite issues. They work best when teeth need controlled, predictable movement."},{"question":"How long does clear aligner treatment take?","answer":"Most treatments take 6\u201318 months, depending on how much movement is needed. Some simple cases may finish sooner, while more complex cases may take longer."},{"question":"Do clear aligners hurt?","answer":"Clear aligners are usually comfortable. You may feel mild pressure for the first few days of each new tray, which is a normal sign that the teeth are moving."},{"question":"How often do I need to wear my aligners?","answer":"Aligners should be worn for 20\u201322 hours per day. They should only be removed for eating, drinking anything other than water, and brushing. Consistent wear is essential for predictable results."},{"question":"How much do clear aligners cost?","answer":"Clear aligner costs vary depending on how many aligner trays are needed and how complex the tooth movement is. Simple cases may require fewer trays, while more detailed corrections need a longer treatment plan. After a full assessment, the dentist will provide a personalised quote based on your goals and the expected treatment length."}],"relationships":{"clinic":[],"practitioners":[],"services":[]},"graph":{"node":"clear-aligners","edges":[]},"jsonld":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@id":"clear-aligners","@type":["Service","MedicalProcedure","Action"],"name":"Clear Aligners","description":"A discreet, removable orthodontic system that straightens teeth using a series of custom\u2011made clear trays.
