*Free 32co Clear Aligner Consultation

If you are looking to straighten your teeth, we are offering a free consultation for our registered patients.

*New Patients fee £95 to include Clear Aligner consultation.

What is Clear Aligner treatment?
- 32Co treatment is the process of wearing a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually straighten your teeth. No brackets and wires, and none of the restrictions that come with metal braces.

What is the treatment process?
1) Get your smile assessed
Treatment starts with a consultation. Dr Anastasija Bates or Dr Katie Bynoth will undertake a smile assessment and a dental health check to ensure suitability. During this appointment smile digital records will be taken to create a digital treatment plan
2) Receive your new smile design.
Sit down with Dr Anastasija Bates/ Dr Katie Bynoth and review your bespoke digital treatment plan, designed with input from specialist orthodontists where required, to achieve your new smile
3) Start treatment within 2-4 weeks
Your custom-made clear aligners are manufactured and you can start straightening your teeth in as little as 2 weeks.

What happens afterwards?
-You will need to wear retainers nighty to prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original position.

Please call the practice on 0117 9744867 or email us on [email protected] for more details.
