About Inman Aligner
The Inman Aligner is a removable orthodontic appliance designed to quickly straighten the front teeth. At Confidental Clinic in London, we offer this innovative treatment as a fast, cost-effective solution for mild to moderate crowding or protrusion of the front teeth. The aligner uses a unique mechanism with opposing spring-loaded components that gently guide your teeth into alignment, typically in just 6-18 weeks.

Treatment Process
Initial Assessment
Your dentist will examine your teeth to determine if the Inman Aligner is suitable for your specific case. Impressions, photographs, and possibly X-rays will be taken.
Custom Fabrication
Your impressions are sent to a specialized laboratory where your custom Inman Aligner is created. This typically takes about 2-3 weeks.
Fitting Appointment
Your dentist will fit your custom aligner and show you how to insert and remove it. Some minor adjustments to your teeth (known as interproximal reduction) may be necessary to create space for movement.
Progress Appointments
You'll visit your dentist every 2-3 weeks for monitoring and possible adjustments to optimize tooth movement.
Completion and Retention
Once your teeth have reached the desired position, you'll be fitted with a retainer to maintain your new smile.

Aftercare
After completing treatment with the Inman Aligner, you'll need to wear a retainer to maintain your new smile. This is typically a removable retainer worn at night or a bonded wire retainer attached to the back of your teeth. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential to maintain your results. Without proper retention, teeth can gradually shift back toward their original positions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Patient Stories
"I had braces as a teenager but didn't wear my retainer, so my front teeth shifted over time. The Inman Aligner at Confidental Clinic was the perfect solution—my teeth were straight again in just 10 weeks! The treatment was much faster and more affordable than I expected. I'm diligent about wearing my retainer now!"
Claire Bennett
"I was hesitant about getting braces in my 30s, but the Inman Aligner offered a quick solution for my slightly crowded front teeth. It was noticeable when I spoke, but the treatment was so short that it didn't matter. After just 3 months, my smile is transformed. The team at Confidental Clinic was professional and supportive throughout."
