Removable. Discreet. Specialist-planned.
Custom-made clear trays that gradually move your teeth — virtually invisible when worn, removable for eating and brushing. The difference at Claremont Orthodontics is the specialist planning behind every set of aligners.
The treatment plan is the skill — aligners are the tool.
Digital planning with 3D scans
Dr Denize creates a precise digital treatment plan using 3D scans of your teeth at our Claremont clinic. Every tooth movement is mapped before your first aligner is fabricated — this is where specialist training makes a measurable difference to your outcome.
Custom-made clear trays
Each aligner is custom-fabricated to fit your teeth at every stage of the plan. You wear them for 20–22 hours per day, removing them only for eating, drinking (except water), and brushing your teeth.
Progressive changes every 1–2 weeks
You change to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks. Each set moves your teeth incrementally toward the final planned position. The total number of aligners in your series depends on the complexity of your case.
Regular specialist check-ins
Dr Denize monitors your progress with regular appointments at our Stirling Highway practice, adjusting the plan if your teeth are not tracking as expected. Specialist oversight throughout treatment is what separates this approach from unsupervised aligner programmes.
Aligners are not suitable for every case.
We believe in honest advice over sales. Clear aligners work well for mild to moderate crowding and spacing — but complex bite correction, significant jaw discrepancies, or severe crowding may require fixed braces for the most reliable result. Dr Denize will tell you plainly which option is most appropriate for your case, and will only recommend aligners when they are genuinely the right choice.
Ideal for mild to moderate cases.
Adults from across Perth — Cottesloe, Nedlands, Swanbourne, Mount Claremont — choose clear aligners for the flexibility of a removable appliance and the discretion of a virtually invisible look. Dr Denize's specialist training means he can manage cases that require more than basic aligner prescribing.
Removed only for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene. Consistent wear is essential for staying on track.
Each new set moves your teeth incrementally. Total number of aligners varies by the complexity of your case.
The aligners are a commodity. The treatment plan — how your teeth move, in what sequence, by how much — is where specialist training at Claremont Orthodontics matters.
Frequently asked questions about clear aligners.
How is specialist clear aligner treatment different from a GP or direct-to-consumer aligner service?
The aligners themselves are a commodity — the treatment plan is where the skill lies. Dr Denize's specialist orthodontic training means he can manage tooth movements, bite correction, and complex sequencing at a level that general practitioners or online aligner companies are not qualified to provide. Patients from across Perth come to our Claremont practice specifically for this specialist-level planning.
How long does clear aligner treatment take?
Clear aligner treatment typically takes 6 to 18 months depending on complexity. Mild crowding may resolve in as little as 6 months, while more involved cases take longer. Dr Denize will give you a personalised timeline at your free consultation at our Claremont practice on Stirling Highway.
Can I eat normally with clear aligners?
Yes. Unlike fixed braces, clear aligners are removable. You take them out for all meals and drinks (except water), so there are no food restrictions. Simply brush your teeth before reinserting them. This is one of the main reasons clear aligners are popular with adults across Perth's western suburbs.
Are clear aligners as effective as braces for complex cases?
For mild to moderate crowding and spacing, clear aligners under specialist planning can achieve comparable results to fixed braces. However, complex bite issues, significant jaw misalignment, or severe crowding may require braces for the most predictable outcome. Dr Denize will tell you honestly which option suits your case — he will only recommend aligners if they are the right tool for you.
How many hours a day do I need to wear clear aligners?
Aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours per day. They are removed only for eating, drinking anything other than water, and brushing your teeth. Consistent daily wear is essential — falling short of this target is the most common reason treatment runs over time. Dr Denize will discuss compliance at your consultation.
