Straighten Your Teeth With Night-Time Clear Aligners

NiTime Aligners use clear aligner technology designed for shorter daily wear. They may be suitable for selected orthodontic cases where a removable, discreet option is appropriate. Your dentist will assess your teeth, bite and oral health before explaining whether NiTime Aligners are suitable for you.

NiTime Aligners may appeal to patients who find full-day aligner wear difficult because of work, speaking commitments or lifestyle. You will still need to wear the aligners for the prescribed time, keep them clean and attend review appointments so your progress can be monitored.

How NiTime Aligner
Treatment Works

We use digital intraoral scanning where appropriate to support assessment and treatment planning. Your dentist will explain the proposed tooth movement, likely timescale, limitations and retention requirements before treatment begins.

1

Assessment

Your dentist will assess your teeth, gums, bite and oral health before confirming whether NiTime Aligners are suitable.

2

Digital Treatment Preview

Where appropriate, a digital preview may be used to show proposed tooth movement. This helps explain the plan, but it is not a guaranteed final result.

3

Custom Aligners

A series of custom clear aligners will be made for your treatment plan. Your dentist will explain how and when to wear each aligner.

4

Progress Monitoring

You will attend review appointments so your dentist can monitor tooth movement, fit and compliance, and make adjustments where needed.

5

Retention

Retainers are usually recommended after treatment to help maintain your new tooth position. Your dentist will explain how often to wear them and when to attend reviews.
