Clear Aligners in Dubai — Invisible Teeth Straightening
Treatment overview
Clear aligner consultations at Alkaissi Medical Centre in Mirdif, Dubai are for adults and teenagers considering removable orthodontic trays to move their teeth.
Clear aligners are removable trays designed to move teeth over time. At Alkaissi Medical Centre in Mirdif, Dubai, adults and teenagers considering orthodontic treatment can discuss whether aligners suit their needs.
Clear aligners are custom-made, nearly transparent plastic trays. Each set is worn for a specified period (usually 1–2 weeks) before moving to the next; because they are removable, they can be taken out for eating and oral hygiene.
The clinic uses 3D intraoral scanning to create a digital model of the teeth, with a 3D simulation of the planned treatment outcome before the first aligner is worn.
Conveniently located for residents of Mirdif, Al Warqa, and Al Rashidiya, our clinic provides personalized orthodontic care for adults and teens seeking a convenient and aesthetically pleasing teeth-straightening solution.
