Clear braces Direct and how we do what we do!

Here at Clear Braces Direct in London, we are proud to be an Invisalign provider and part of Invisalign’s Partnership Programme achieving Diamond Status. This was achieved not by achieving some form of arbitrary sales target but by providing the highest standard of care and the highest success rate of their design providers.

How did we do this? With relentless focus. Clear Braces Direct in London (although it may seem like a simple online provider) is a dental clinic but one that is simply entirely focused on providing and maximizing the use of Invisalign aligners. By allowing our medical staff to focus entirely on this subspecialty of orthodontics, we have become an industry leader and we couldn’t be happier. If you have an orthodontic issue or concerns about how your teeth line up or are working, we would be happy to provide an assessment. But for more general dentistry or any form of filling, scrape and polishing, you really should go to your local clinic.

Why Invisalign?

There are multiple other clear aligner manufacturers on the market but Invisalign was the first to establish themselves; they not only hold several patents on the best way to make aligners and provide them, but they also have established the largest base of local partners. This partnership works on the basis that Invisalign provides manufacturing skills and software whereas the local partners provide dental expertise and individual patient care. This allows us to maximize the journey and results that we can give and Invisalign, as the manufacturer, to ensure that their goods are being used with the guidance of fully qualified dentists to their greatest potential.

What problems can we and can’t we fix?

Not only have clear braces direct in London specialised in orthodontics, but we are actually sub-specialised in a category of orthodontic work, which would be considered nonspecialist, mild or cosmetic orthodontics. This is due to the limitations of clear aligners; there are some aligner providers who have a habit of over-promising the possible results of the use of an aligner and treating aligners like a silver bullet that can cure-all. This is a disservice, not only to the patient who is bound to be disappointed but to the manufacturers who are having false promises associated with the products. We do not accept patients simply to boost sales or service but we advise them when it is in their best interests to join us on an orthodontic journey using Invisalign.

Clear aligners are best suited to working on the front teeth, where milder overcrowding or gapping needs to be corrected. If a pallet needs extending or widening, then more advanced orthodontic treatment will be required; this is also true with any bridgework. We provide free assessments for anybody curious about the possibility of treatment with clear aligners in order to maximize the availability of aligners, whilst also directing those who require a different level of care to the appropriate services. Please see the ‘Am I suitable?’ section of the website for the online form and brief questionnaire to get you started.
