AirFlex Aligners in Billericay
Contact us on:01277 627055Clear aligners with shorter prescribed daily wear time
AirFlex Aligners offer a modern clear aligner option for patients who want straighter teeth with shorter prescribed daily wear time, where clinically suitable.
At Grange Green Dental Practice, your treatment is carefully assessed, planned and monitored by our dental team, helping you understand whether AirFlex is the right option for your teeth, bite and lifestyle.
What are AirFlex Aligners?
AirFlex Aligners are clear aligners made with OrthoFX’s HyperElastic™ polymer technology. They are designed to support controlled tooth movement with shorter prescribed daily wear time than many conventional clear aligner systems that are commonly worn for longer periods each day.
At Grange Green Dental Practice, AirFlex treatment is planned around your teeth, bite, oral health and lifestyle. Your dentist will assess whether this approach is suitable for you and explain exactly how long your aligners should be worn each day.
AirFlex Aligners are designed to:
- Straighten teeth discreetly
- Support planned tooth movement
- Offer shorter prescribed daily wear time, where clinically suitable
- Support comfort during wear
- Help improve alignment and bite
- Support easier cleaning and long-term oral health when retainers are worn as advised
This may make AirFlex Aligners particularly appealing for adults seeking orthodontic treatment without wearing aligners for most of the day, where suitable.

Your custom-made AirFlex Aligners use patented HyperElastic™ polymer technology and are planned around shorter prescribed wear time where clinically appropriate.

“I saw jasmine the hygienist today and I've never seen a proper hygienist before. Ive only ever had the old scale cleaning as part of a check up with my old NHS dentist. Well, I cannot beleive the difference between the slightly barbaric treatment I've endured over the years with my NHS dentist compared to how gentle Jasmine was today. My teeth have never felt this clean! She was so sweet, I absolutely reccomened her. ”

All the staff are genuinely humble, reassuring, and listen to all of your concerns.

Are AirFlex Aligners safe?
AirFlex Aligners are used under professional dental supervision. Before treatment begins, your dentist will assess your teeth, gums, bite and oral health to check whether clear aligner treatment is suitable for you.
Reduced wear time does not mean reduced care. Your aligners must be worn exactly as prescribed, and your progress will be monitored to support safe, controlled tooth movement. Good oral hygiene and retainers after treatment are also essential for long-term stability.
The Key Benefit: Reduced Wear Time
One of the standout advantages of AirFlex Aligners is the reduced daily wear requirement compared to conventional clear aligner systems.
This can be particularly beneficial if:
You find full-day aligner wear difficult
Your job involves frequent speaking or meetings
You want more flexibility for social or professional life
You’re looking for a discreet solution with fewer lifestyle restrictions
Your dentist will advise whether reduced wear time is suitable for your specific case.
