Aligners are clear, custom-made braces that gradually move the teeth into the correct position. These aligners are manufactured specifically for each patient and replaced every two weeks to achieve the desired tooth position.
Each set of aligners is personalized using advanced digital technology and is almost invisible. They can be easily removed, making eating, brushing and flossing no problem.
Based on an individual treatment plan, the aligners are periodically renewed at The Smile Gallery, located near The Hague, so that the teeth gradually shift. Regular checkups with the dentist for orthodontics are necessary to monitor progress and receive new aligners.
To achieve optimal results within the estimated treatment time, it is important to wear the aligners for most of the day, usually at least 20-22 hours per day.
Aligners can generally be a comfortable and discreet replacement for traditional braces.

At The Smile Gallery, located near The Hague, you can also get a fixed brace. This involves attaching small appliances, often called “brackets”, to the front of the teeth. These are then connected by wires and elastic ligatures.
These brackets serve as anchors for the wires, which gradually apply gentle pressure to the teeth and move them to the desired position. During treatment, regular adjustments are made to monitor and guide the position of the teeth.
Het is van belang te beseffen dat de duur van de behandeling kan variëren per persoon. Gedurende deze periode dienen de aanwijzingen van ons team gevolgd te worden, en moet de patiënt een goede mondhygiëne handhaven en regelmatig langskomen voor controle.
Wearing a brace may take some getting used to in the beginning, but at the end of the process a wonderful result awaits.
