Your Guide to Teeth Straightening in Hertford & Ware
1st August 2025
A straighter smile isn’t just about looking good - it can also improve your oral health, bite, and self-confidence. If you’re in Hertford or Ware and thinking about orthodontic treatment, you may be surprised by how many modern, discreet, and highly effective options are now available.
Gone are the days when traditional metal “train track” braces were your only choice. At Hertfordshire Dental Group, we’re proud to be the area’s most experienced Invisalign provider, achieving Invisalign Platinum Elite status. This accolade reflects our expertise in treating a wide range of orthodontic cases - from the simplest adjustments to more complex transformations.
Since 2015, our highly skilled team have carried out thousands of transformative Invisalign treatments for patients in Hertford & Ware, with many describing their experience as ‘life-changing.’
Here, we take a closer look at the benefits of straightening teeth, the treatment options available, and what our patients have to say.
Why Straighten Teeth?
Crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth can make cleaning more difficult, increasing the risk of gum disease and tooth decay. But the benefits go beyond health. Many patients find that a straighter smile gives them a renewed sense of confidence in both their personal and professional lives.
Straightening and properly aligning your teeth can also provide a stronger foundation for cosmetic treatments such as veneers and composite bonding even restorative treatmernts such as dental implants, resulting in more precise and natural-looking results.
Invisalign
For teens and adults alike, Invisalign is one of the most popular options in Hertford and Ware. These virtually invisible aligners are custom-made to gently move your teeth into place over time. They're removable, which means you can still enjoy your favourite meals and maintain your usual brushing and flossing routine without hassle.
Using our state-of-the-art iTero digital scanners, we’re able to capture precise 3D images of your teeth and gums - and create a realistic simulation of your future smile!
These digital images are then used to design your custom Invisalign aligners, helping ensure a perfect fit and effective treatment plan.
Invisalign works best when you wear your aligners for at least 22 hours a day. The more consistent you are, the more efficient your treatment will be - taking them out too often can delay your results. While it’s fine to remove them briefly for special occasions, just be sure to pop them back in as soon as you can.
Aligners are typically changed every two weeks, with progress reviews at the practice roughly every six weeks. While treatment length varies, most Invisalign cases are completed in 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity.
Ideal for mild to moderate alignment issues, Invisalign offers a convenient and subtle solution for those wanting results without drawing attention during treatment.

Not only are we proud of the before-and-after results, but hearing how orthodontic treatment has positively impacted lives through your glowing reviews is incredibly rewarding for us here at Hertfordshire Dental Group.
