Clear Aligners & Invisible Braces in Fareham
Looking for clear aligners or invisible braces in Fareham? At Serenity Dental on East Street, Dr Declan Blakey straightens teeth with SureSmile clear aligners: a series of thin, clear, removable trays that move your teeth gradually into place, without metal brackets or wires. We see patients from Fareham, Portchester, Titchfield, Stubbington and Gosport.
What are SureSmile clear aligners?
SureSmile is a modern orthodontic system using custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Unlike traditional braces, SureSmile aligners are nearly invisible, removable, and comfortable, perfect for adults and teens who want effective results without the look or discomfort of metal braces.
The aligners are designed using advanced digital planning and 3D printing technology, ensuring a precise, predictable treatment tailored to your smile.
How clear aligner treatment works
SureSmile treatment involves a series of clear, removable aligners. Each aligner applies gentle pressure to teeth, gradually moving them into the desired position.
- Step 1: Consultation & Digital Scan – We assess your teeth, take scans, and create a digital treatment plan.
- Step 2: Custom Aligners – A series of aligners is made to gradually adjust your teeth.
- Step 3: Wear & Progress – Aligners are worn 20–22 hours a day and changed approximately every 1–2 weeks.
- Step 4: Smile Reveal – After the final aligner, your teeth are straightened, giving you a confident smile.
The treatment timeline depends on your individual needs, but most patients see significant results within 6–12 months.

Caring for Your Aligners
Maintaining your aligners is simple:
- Remove them when eating or drinking anything except water
- Brush your teeth before reinserting aligners
- Clean aligners daily with a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water
- Attend regular check-ups with your Serenity Dental team to monitor progress
Following these steps ensures your treatment remains on track and your aligners stay in great condition.
Clear aligners or fixed braces?
Clear aligners suit most adults and teens with mild to moderate crowding, gaps or bite problems. Because they are clear and removable, they are a popular alternative to metal braces for people who want discreet, nearly invisible treatment. Some complex cases are better treated with fixed braces, and Dr Blakey will tell you honestly which option suits you at your consultation.
How much do clear aligners cost in Fareham?
The cost of SureSmile depends on how much your teeth need to move, so your exact fee is confirmed after your consultation and digital scan. Finance is available to spread the cost; see our finance options.
Who is suitable for SureSmile?
Most adults and teens with mild to moderate crowding, spacing, or bite issues are suitable. A consultation will confirm suitability.
Is treatment painful?
Some mild pressure is normal when switching to a new aligner, but treatment is generally comfortable.
How long does SureSmile treatment take?
Treatment time varies, but most patients complete their treatment in 6–12 months.
Will I need to wear a retainer after treatment?
Yes, retainers are essential to maintain your new smile and prevent teeth from moving back.
