After our Dentist creates your customised treatment plan, the series of clear aligners are manufactured to achieve the desired result. The number of trays you will have is dependent on how much movement is required to give you a perfect smile.
Simple cases, for example a patient that had braces as a teen but lost their retainer, can be as few as 5 aligners. While more complex cases can have 20-30 aligners.
We recommend you wear each aligner either 1 or 2 weeks before progressing to the next aligner, again depending on case type. Once you have progressed through your aligner series and have the smile of your dreams, you will have the option to decide which type of complimentary retainer system you would prefer (ie bonded permanent retainers vs clear removable retainers, or both!).
