What Are Smartee Clear Aligners?
Smartee clear aligners are an innovative orthodontic treatment that straighten teeth using a series of removable, nearly invisible aligner trays. These aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, gradually guiding them into place. As an Invisalign alternative, they offer many of the same benefits, with some additional advantages.
The Smartee system includes different product lines tailored to specific needs. Whether you need minor adjustments or more complex corrections, there’s a Smartee aligner for you. The trays are easy to remove, making eating, brushing, and flossing much simpler than with traditional braces.
Smartee aligners are also known for their comfort. The trays are smooth, BPA-free, and designed with both the dentist and patient in mind. Plus, you’re supported with a flexible treatment strategy tailored to your lifestyle.
How Do Smartee Aligners Work?
Smartee Aligners consists of custom-made transparent trays crafted from smooth, comfortable plastic. You wear them over your teeth and change them every few weeks to gradually guide your teeth into their new positions. The aligners are removable, making it easy to eat, clean your teeth and maintain your oral hygiene.
- 1. Digital scan & treatment plan: Your dentist takes a 3D scan of your teeth and creates a customised plan showing how your teeth will move over time.
- 2. Custom aligners are made: A series of clear, custom-fit aligners is created, each designed to shift your teeth slightly closer to the final position.
- 3. Gradual teeth movement: Each aligner applies gentle pressure to move your teeth step by step. You switch to a new set every 1–2 weeks.
- 4. Consistent daily wear: You wear the aligners for 20–22 hours a day, allowing your teeth to gradually straighten over several months.

Frequently Asked Questions
Considering Invisalign treatment but have a few questions? Invisalign is a popular and discreet way to straighten teeth, and patients often want to understand how it works, what to expect, and whether it’s right for them. Below, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions to help you feel confident and informed before starting your Invisalign journey.

It’s the intelligent alternative.
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.
Smartee Clear Aligners is generally more comfortable than traditional braces. You may experience mild pressure or discomfort for a day or two when switching to your new set of aligners, which is a sign that the treatment is working. This usually settles quickly and is easily managed.
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.
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.
Your treatment at Biggleswade 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.
