Angel Aligners™
Angel Aligners is a clear aligner system suited to a wide range of smile concerns, from minor crowding and gaps to more involved bite corrections. Using a series of custom-made, virtually invisible trays, it gradually guides your teeth into their ideal position.
Each set of aligners is worn for one to two weeks before moving on to the next in your personalised sequence, which is mapped out from the very start using digital scanning and treatment planning. Aligners are removable, so you can eat, drink and clean your teeth as normal throughout treatment.
Treatment time varies by case, but many patients see results within a matter of months, with full treatment plans typically completing faster than traditional braces. For patients who need extra precision, built-in attachment points allow finer control over tooth movement without the need for visible brackets or wires.
Angel Aligners offers a comfortable, low-profile alternative for patients who want an effective straightening solution without compromising on how their smile looks day to day.

Book ConsultationFrequently asked questions
We understand you may have questions before booking. Here are some of the most common.
What are Invisalign clear aligners?
Invisalign clear aligners are removable, transparent trays designed to guide teeth into improved alignment over time. At Woodberry Down Dental Practice, Invisalign aligners are custom-made using digital scans, ensuring a precise fit. They are worn daily and replaced regularly as treatment progresses, offering a discreet alternative to fixed orthodontic appliances.
Is Invisalign as effective as braces?
Invisalign can be as effective as braces for many orthodontic cases, particularly mild to moderate alignment concerns. A dental professional will assess each case to determine whether Invisalign or another orthodontic option is most appropriate.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Invisalign treatment time varies depending on individual needs, but many cases are completed within 6 to 18 months. A personalised treatment plan is created using digital planning tools, giving patients a clear estimate of treatment duration from the start.
Is Invisalign suitable for adults and teenagers?
Yes, Invisalign is suitable for both adults and teenagers. There are options tailored to different age groups, including aligners designed for teenagers with features that support compliance. Suitability depends on individual orthodontic needs, which are assessed during a consultation.
How is Invisalign different from traditional braces?
Invisalign uses removable clear aligners rather than fixed metal brackets and wires. This allows patients to eat, brush, and floss without the restrictions often associated with braces. Invisalign is also more discreet and typically involves fewer in-practice adjustments.
How long has Invisalign been used in orthodontic treatment?
Invisalign has been used in orthodontic treatment since the late 1990s. Over the years, the system has been continuously developed using advanced digital technology. Woodberry Down Dental Practice uses current Invisalign systems that benefit from decades of clinical research and real-world use.
