ClearStep braces at Harley Street Dental Studio

Clearstep is an invisible brace appliance. The Clearstep system uses a number of invisible methods, including clear aligners, which help you to achieve a perfect smile. These clear aligners can help you straighten your teeth, as well as addressing gapped teeth, overlapping teeth and crooked teeth. The aligners work along with the rest of the invisible brace system to help build confidence in your smile gradually.

The Benefits of Clearstep Braces

Effective - Clearstep will effectively treat a number of issues, such as tooth crowding and bite problems. The results are seen quickly, and all achieved without anybody noticing.

Removable - The Clearstep invisible aligner can be taken out for any number of reasons, including eating, brushing and important social events.

Undetectable - Clearstep is made from cleat plastics that make the aligners almost completely invisible. Even under close inspection they will be hard to detect.

Versatility - People of all ages can use Clearstep, from children to the elderly.

Stages of Treatment with Clearstep Braces

Stage One - During an initial consultation at Harley Street Dental Studio you can discuss whether Clearstep is suitable for you. Our team will answer all your questions and assess the health of your teeth.

Stage Two - The second step of treatment involves x-rays, impression moulds and photographs of your smile being taken. These will give your dentist a more complete analysis of your teeth.

Stage Three - Upon your next visit, if you are happy to proceed with treatment, the Clearstep invisible braces will be especially crafted.

Stage Four - Treatment using Clearstep comes in numerous stages. This will require a number of visits to your dentist during treatment for check-ups and assessments. Every stage involves eight steps that use coded models on your teeth. These coded positioners will need to be worn in a certain sequence, for about two weeks per stage. Each stage will gradually move your teeth until they reach the desired results; which usually takes between nine and eighteen months.
