I hear "Clearbraces" being advertised on the radio at the moment.

I have looked up the website and my observation is that none of the providers are specialist orthodontists. They are all general practice dentists.

My personal view is that if I were having my teeth straightened I would want to be treated by a qualified orthodontist rather than a general dentist.

This view has come up many times on this forum both by patients and dental professionals.

Hi there

There are many kinds of "clear braces" and invisible braces. All these will work in the right hands. I would discuss with an orthodontist and find out what will work for you, nobody can tell you this on-line

Good luck
