Inman Aligner

Inman Aligner in London

Experience a fast and effective teeth alignment alternative to conventional metal brackets and wires at the leading orthodontic clinic in London (Dental Care Centre).
Orthodontics is the perfect way to achieve well-aligned teeth for a more attractive smile and enhanced oral health. However, some individuals hesitate to undergo orthodontic treatment due to its lengthy duration and the associated pain and discomfort. The Inman aligner is a groundbreaking tooth straightening method that provides rapid and effective teeth realignment with minimal discomfort.

What is Inman Aligner

The Inman Aligner is a removable orthodontic appliance for front teeth straightening to address mild to moderate crowding issues. It can be used as a sole treatment or an initial step to prepare for other treatments like veneers or cosmetic bonding.
Compared to traditional orthodontic treatments, Inman Aligner provides a quicker method for straightening teeth. Unlike Invisalign, only one device is utilised throughout the treatment process, eliminating the need for replacements.

Advantages of the Inman Aligner

Fast: Depending on the amount of teeth movement required, the treatment can be completed within 6-18 weeks.
Effective: It is used in mild to moderate misalignment of front teeth, including protrusion and crowding.
Comfortable: The Inman Aligner can cause minimal discomfort that typically subsides within the first few days.
Convenient: the Inman Aligner is a removable device. It can be easily taken out during eating and drinking and to perform regular oral hygiene routines.
User-friendly: it can be easily removed and inserted by the patient without professional assistance.
Affordable: The Inman Aligner has a reasonable cost compared to other alternatives, such as Invisalign.

Disadvantages of Inman Aligner

It works only for aligning front teeth
Bulkier than Invisalign aligners
It may affect your speech for the first few days until you get used to it
Less aesthetic appearance due to the embedded metal coil
Requires frequent follow-up visits for adjustments every two weeks

How does the Inman Aligner work?

The Inman Aligner consists of two acrylic plates that cover teeth from the front and back surfaces. Embedded within the acrylic plates are a nickel-chromium wire and spring. The concept behind the Inman Aligner is to apply force from one side of the plates opposite to the force applied by the plate on the other side, which produces a squeezing effect on the teeth, inducing teeth movement in the desired direction.
This technique enables a broad range of teeth movement, resulting in swift and effective realignment.

Inman Aligner Instructions for Use

It is advised to wear the Inman Aligner for around 20 hours per day. You can safely wear the Inman Aligner during sleep. Only remove it during eating and for cleaning purposes.
It is not unusual to experience discomfort, hypo, or hypersalivation when you start wearing your Inman Aligner for the first time, which usually disappears within a few days.
A follow-up visit every 2-3 weeks is recommended to monitor the progress of teeth movement and apply tightening if necessary.
After completing treatment, a retainer device is essential to maintain the achieved results and prevent relapse.
If you dream of having perfectly aligned front teeth in no time, the Inman Aligner may be your right choice. Consult our orthodontic experts to learn more about the Inman Aligner.

How does the Inman Aligner work?

Inman Aligner is composed of two acrylic plates positioned opposite each other, with an integrated spring that generates forces in two opposite directions. This mechanism creates a squeezing effect on the teeth, facilitating teeth movement.

How long does the treatment with Inman Aligner last?

The treatment takes around 6 to 18 weeks if you follow the instructions of wearing it for 20 hours per day.

Can I eat and drink while wearing my Inman Aligner?

Inman Aligner should be removed while eating, drinking, and performing your regular oral hygiene routine.

Does the Inman Aligner hurt?

You may experience slight discomfort in the first few days of wearing the Inman Aligner. This discomfort typically lasts for only a few days.

Will the Inman Aligner affect my speech?

You may experience some speech problems and lisping for 1-2 weeks. After that, you will feel more comfortable talking with it.

What is the cost of an Inman Aligner?

The Inman Aligner in London costs around £1500.

How often should I wear the Inman Aligner?

You should wear your Inman Aligner for around 20 hours per day, every day. Wearing your Inman Aligner for less than the recommended time will increase the treatment duration.

Will I need a retainer after completing the treatment?

Like all orthodontic treatments, wearing a retainer is recommended after completing treatment to prevent relapse.

I would really recommend this Dental Practice. Dr Kolar is a very attentive dentist who cares about the you as a person as well as about the health of your teeth and gums. He takes time to explain the processes he is leading you through, explains how your dental health has progressed over time and encourages you to take care of your teeth. For the first time in my life I look forward to coming to the dentist!

Toby R.

I have been registered at this dental practice now, for just over 15 years. Throughout that whole period, I have been lucky enough to have been looked after by the wonderful, and patient, Dr Prasad. He has covered many procedures in my mouth, from extraction, and root canal, right up to the most recent procedure, Composite bonding of my broken two front teeth. Do not hesitate to register at this practise, as you will be looked after with care and consideration.

Thank you Dr Prasao

Suzanne L.

Very friendly

During the lockdown period I was able to see Dr Irfan for a dental emergency I had. I’m so grateful that they have been available throughout this. Gillian the practice manager contacted me and offered me an appointment the same day. I am a long standing patient at this practice and cannot thank them enough for great service they have provided to me throughout the years. Great dentist, staff and management. Thank you all so much.

Susan L.

The Dental Care Center has been an excellent dentist surgery that I have been attending as a patient for many years. When I was young I didn’t have a pleasant experience with my local dentist on more than one occasion. I found the dentist at new cross dental care center very reassuring and comforting. The management and reception were also very welcoming.

Stewart S.

Really efficient service and friendly helpful staff, clean and fresh environment

Stephanie P.

Great desk staff and Dentists. Excellent with young children.

Spencer M.

Brilliant service from Dr Mansi Patel – she ensured I was well informed regarding my dental issues and spent a whole consultation discussing my dental history and reviewing my previous scans. She provided the means to communicate out of hours, if I had any further queries. She demonstrated empathy and encouraged collaborative decision making throughout. This is a refreshing approach, speaking from someone who’s a healthcare professional. Would recommend!

Sonia M.

I had a wonderful experience at Dental Care Centre. Dr Mani Nasir is fantastic, he listened to me, had my best interests at heart and delivered excellent and professional care. Dr Mani & his nurse Kawtar are an amazing team! I also felt very safe with the measures the practice has put in place in light of covid-19. Thank you!
