Orthodontics Harrogate
Reveal™ Clear Aligners
Reveal Clear Aligners are manufactured with state-of-art technology for a precise-fit to help ensure predictable orthodontic treatment outcomes.
Reveal orthodontic aligners are uniquely clear with little to no visible lines so your natural teeth shine through.
At Harrogate Dental, our cosmetic dentists use x-rays, scans and photos to create 3D models of the patient’s mouth and then make customised plastic aligners which are an exact fit for the patient’s teeth. The aligners then work at gradually aligning the teeth to their correct position.
Our clear aligners are pain free, barely visible to people and don’t require a complex installation.
Reveal Clear Aligners FAQ
Reveal Clear Aligners offer a range of benefits, including:
- Virtually invisible appearance
- Removable for eating and cleaning
- Comfortable, smooth design with no metal brackets or wires
- Easier oral hygiene compared to fixed braces
- Digital treatment planning for predictable results
- Fewer emergency appointments than traditional braces
Many patients choose Reveal because they want a discreet and convenient way to straighten their teeth.
Both clear aligners and metal braces can achieve excellent results. Clear aligners are often preferred by adults and teenagers who want a more discreet treatment option and the flexibility to remove their aligners for meals and special occasions. Traditional braces may be recommended for more complex orthodontic cases. Your dentist will advise which treatment is most suitable for your smile.
Treatment times vary depending on the complexity of your case. Some patients complete treatment in as little as six months, while others may require 12 to 18 months or longer. During your consultation, your dentist will provide a personalised treatment plan and estimated treatment time.
For the best results, Reveal Clear Aligners should typically be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day. They should only be removed when eating, drinking anything other than water, and when brushing and flossing your teeth.
Keeping your aligners clean is important for maintaining good oral hygiene and ensuring they remain clear. You should:
- Rinse your aligners regularly with lukewarm water
- Clean them gently using a soft toothbrush
- Brush and floss your teeth before reinserting them
- Store them safely in their case when not in use
- Avoid exposing them to hot water, which can cause warping
Most patients adapt to their aligners very quickly. You may notice a slight change in speech during the first few days of wearing a new aligner, but this usually resolves as your tongue adjusts. Regular wear helps speed up the adaptation process.
Yes. Reveal Clear Aligners can successfully treat many common orthodontic concerns, including crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, crooked teeth, mild bite issues, and teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment. Your dentist will assess your smile and determine whether Reveal is suitable for your needs.
