Active aligners

Our facially guided aligner treatments are unique to The Thinc Clinic. We design your ideal smile using Digital Smile Design technology. We then incorporate aligner therapy to position your teeth in the correct position based on your face. We begin with the end in mind, and incorporate whitening, bonding and ceramics after aligning your teeth to give you your bespoke and natural smile.
 
Active Aligners are clear aligners that have been developed specifically for aligning your teeth in a predictable, smooth, clear and comfortable manner. Instead of metal brackets, wires or screws, you’ll be wearing a thermoplastic material to achieve your desired results – while going unnoticed by the people around you. Active Aligners work on basic orthodontic principles. They are used for the correction of crooked teeth, gaps or rotation, while achieving the desired results in an organized and planned fashion. These customized trays are “invisible” and move the tooth in the desired direction.

This is achieved through wearing a series of Active Aligners, each for 22 hours a day, 1 to 2 weeks at a time (one stage), which move the teeth per stage until their optimal alignment has been reached.
