Clear aligners for a straighter smile without fixed braces
Clear aligners
Straighten your teeth with barely-there, removable clear aligners from 32co.
Clear aligners at Outwood Dental Care
We offer both Invisalign and 32co clear aligners, so you can straighten your teeth without the look or feel of metal braces. Our clear aligner providers, Jamaal Sheikh, Gurjit Bains and Eleanor White, use our 3Shape intraoral scanner to take a precise digital scan of your teeth and plan your treatment.
Book a no-obligation consultation to find out whether clear aligners are right for you.
What are clear aligners?
Clear aligners (often called invisible braces or teeth aligners) are a series of custom-made, transparent plastic trays that gradually move your teeth into a straighter position.
Each set of clear aligners is worn for around one to two weeks before you move on to the next. Sometimes, small tooth-coloured attachments are bonded to a select number of teeth to help the aligners grip them and guide their movement.
You'll wear your clear aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day, taking them out only to eat, drink anything other than water, brush, and floss.
How much do clear aligners cost?
The cost of clear aligners depends on which clear aligner brand you go with, how complex your case is, and how long treatment will take. Some cases take a few months, while others need up to 18 months.
We'll give you a clear quote at your consultation, and you can spread the cost of your clear aligners with 0% interest-free finance through Tabeo over 3 to 12 months, or over 24 or 36 months at 9.9% APR.

Am I suitable for clear aligners?
Clear aligners can treat a range of issues, including crowded teeth, gaps, and some bite problems. They're popular with adults and older teenagers who want a discreet way to straighten their teeth.
Your dentist can check your teeth and bite at a routine dental check-up and let you know whether clear aligners are likely to work for you, or whether another option would be better.
