Your Smartee Questions Answered
Why should I choose Smartee?
Smartee is a great Invisalign alternative for those who want the very latest in orthodontic technology. While other systems have been available for longer, Smartee leverages next-generation materials and more advanced software to deliver a superior patient experience—greater comfort, enhanced discretion, and exceptional precision. It’s the intelligent alternative.
What happens if an aligner is lost or broken?
Life happens. If you lose or damage an aligner, please contact us immediately. Our clinical team will advise you on the best step to take. This may involve briefly returning to your previous aligner set or, if you are near the end of a cycle, moving to the next one. We will ensure your treatment progress is not disrupted.
Is it essential to wear a retainer after treatment?
Yes, 100%. After any form of orthodontic treatment, teeth have a natural tendency to want to move back to their original positions. A retainer is the only way to prevent this relapse and to safeguard the beautiful result you have achieved. It is a non-negotiable part of the process for all patients.
How long will I need to wear my retainer?
Initially, you may be asked to wear your retainer more frequently. However, for long-term maintenance, the standard recommendation from all orthodontists is to wear your retainers every night for life. This simple habit will ensure your smile remains perfect permanently.
What is the typical treatment time for Smartee?
This is entirely dependent on the individual case. For straightforward alignment, treatment can be as short as 6 months. For more complex cases involving bite correction, it could be 18-24 months. We will provide you with an accurate timeline as part of your personalised digital plan.
How do I know if Smartee is the right choice for me?
If you desire a straighter smile but wish to avoid the appearance and inconvenience of fixed braces, Smartee is likely an excellent choice. It is designed for people with active social and professional lives who value discretion, comfort, and cutting-edge technology. A full consultation with our team will confirm your suitability.
How does Smartee compare to traditional braces?
Smartee offers key advantages in aesthetics (they are nearly invisible), hygiene (they are removable for easy cleaning), and comfort (no metal parts to cause irritation). While traditional braces are still a powerful tool for some extremely severe cases, Smartee is the preferred and more modern option for the vast majority of orthodontic needs.
What does my Smartee treatment package include?
Your treatment at the London Smile Clinic is a fully inclusive package. It covers all of your custom Smartee aligners, any necessary attachments, your final set of retainers to maintain the result, and a home-care kit. There are no hidden costs.
Just how discreet are the aligners?
Smartee aligners are made from a premium, transparent material specifically chosen for its clarity and resistance to staining. They fit so snugly against your teeth that most people you interact with will never notice you are wearing them.
Can Smartee fix teeth that stick out?
Yes. Correcting protruding teeth (an overjet) is a very common and successful application for the Smartee system. The aligners are expertly designed to apply precise forces that retract the teeth into a more aesthetic and functional alignment.
Will wearing Smartee aligners affect my speech?
It is possible to experience a very minor lisp for the first day or two of wearing aligners. This is simply your tongue adjusting to a new object in your mouth. This adaptation happens very quickly, and your speech will return to normal in no time.
Are the aligners uncomfortable?
You can expect to feel a sensation of pressure for the first day of wearing each new aligner—this is how you know it’s working! However, this is not pain. Because the aligners are smooth and custom-moulded, they are exceptionally comfortable to wear for the recommended 22 hours a day.
What is the best way to clean my aligners?
The best practice is to rinse your aligners with cool water whenever you remove them and to clean them daily with a soft toothbrush and clear, unscented soap. Avoid toothpaste, which can be abrasive, and hot water, which can warp the plastic.
How many hours per day must I wear the aligners?
For the treatment to work as predicted in your digital plan, a minimum of 22 hours of daily wear is essential. This ensures the gentle, continuous pressure required for effective tooth movement is maintained.
