UrgentCare Aligners
Clear aligners designed, made, and fitted by our own team. No call-centre middlemen, no off-the-shelf kits through the post — just a considered treatment plan with a dentist who knows your mouth.
Are you a dentist? Submit an aligner case →We built our own aligner service because we wanted to look after patients ourselves, start to finish. Your teeth deserve a plan. A plan made by someone who's actually seen your mouth, who can answer when you call, and who'll still be there in eighteen months when the retainers need replacing.
What We Treat
Clear aligners are extraordinary for some things and unsuitable for others. We'll always tell you which one you are.
Most of our patients come to us with mild-to-moderate crowding, small gaps, slight rotations, or teeth that have quietly shifted since childhood braces came off. For those, aligners are usually the kindest solution — nearly invisible, fully removable, no wires, no embarrassment.
Where the movement needs something more — severe crowding, skeletal bite problems, teeth that really need fixed appliances — we'll say so at the consultation. You won't be talked into a treatment that wasn't going to work.
Which One Are You
Clear aligners are quoted by how far your teeth have to travel. Here's how the cases tend to break down, roughly how long each takes, and where our prices start: from £999 for a single arch, from £1,999 for both.

We'll tell you honestly if aligners aren't the right tool for the job.
Our prices start at £999 for a single arch and £1,999 for both arches. Each covers you from the first scan to the last check-up, every aligner in the set, the retainers that hold the result, a hygiene appointment worth £120 and teeth whitening worth £350. Complex cases we assess in person, because sometimes the honest answer is fixed braces, which we'll always say.
How We Compare
Invisalign is a brand, not a treatment of its own, a little like Hoover is to vacuum cleaners. For mild-to-moderate cases, dentist-fitted clear aligners move teeth on exactly the same principles for a fraction of the price. For genuinely complex work the brand's track record can be worth paying for, and we'll tell you when that's you.
| Your case | Typical Invisalign | UrgentCare Dental |
|---|---|---|
| Milda tooth or two, small gaps | £1,500–£3,500 | From £999 |
| Moderatecrowding across both arches | £3,500–£4,800 | From £1,999 |
| Complexbite correction needed | £4,250–£5,500 | From £1,999, assessed in person |
Invisalign figures are typical UK prices, not our own. We break the whole ladder down in what Invisalign really costs in the UK and the cheapest clear aligners in the UK.
One important line to draw: this is about aligners fitted and watched over by a real dentist, not the posted-to-your-door kits with nobody checking your teeth. That's the one corner we'd never cut.
Why Here, Why Us
Your aligners are produced here — not shipped in from a factory you've never heard of with a four-week lead time. Turnaround is quick, revisions are quicker, and the person who scanned your teeth is the same person who signs off the final tray.
Every treatment is designed and reviewed by a GDC-registered dentist at our practice. Not an algorithm, not an overseas technician you'll never meet. If you've got questions halfway through, you come into the clinic and someone answers them properly.
Ninety per cent of aligner relapse comes down to patients not wearing retainers, usually because no-one told them the retainers were the whole point. Ours come included — fixed, removable, or both — and we'll keep an eye on them at your check-ups.
We treat the quiet patients — the ones who've hidden their smile in photos for fifteen years and only now feel ready to do something about it.
— Dr. Zain Chishty, Clinical Director
The Journey
Free, unhurried, and honest. We'll look at your teeth, talk about what's bothering you, and tell you whether aligners are the right answer. If they're not, we'll say so.
A quick intraoral scan — no goopy impressions — and you'll see a preview of where your teeth could be at the end. Most patients are surprised by how small the movements need to be.
We design the plan in-house, walk you through it, and wait for your sign-off before anything goes into production. No surprises, no locked-in commitments until you're sure.
Your first trays are fitted at the practice. You wear each set for a week or two, we see you every six to eight weeks to track progress, and any refinements are handled here, not sent abroad.
Once the teeth are where they should be, retainers hold them there. Included in the price, reviewed at every check-up. This is the bit most providers treat as an afterthought. We don't.
Consultations are free, unhurried, and without obligation. If aligners aren't for you, we'll tell you that too — and suggest what is.
Every clinic offers them at the same price, and each has its own aligner page: Leeds, Manchester, Bradford, Northampton and Leicester.
