Top Cape Town Aesthetic Dental Surgeon
Dental Aligners
Dr. Sheryl Smithies offers innovative dental aligner therapy in Cape Town.
Dental Aligners
Clear aligners – an advanced orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear aligner trays to guide teeth into a better position. Dr Sheryl is an accredited provider of Invisalign®, Spark® and KRSTL aligners and has been doing aligner treatments since 2014.
Dr Sheryl has a very advanced way of approaching her aligner treatments as she has done both the Beginners and the Advanced MasterCoip Aligner courses in Europe in 2022. She is the only general dentist in South Africa to have done these courses thus far. The extremely advanced techniques allow for the treatment of cases which, until now, have been deemed untreatable with aligners. Combined with the Digital Smile Design platform, no aligner treatment is as well prepared with your final smile in mind.
Her approach to treatment is wholistic and the outcomes are actually in the Retro-aging range by building healthier gum, bones and the relationships of the teeth allowing better posture, breathing patterns, etc. – thereby building better jaw positions, straightening teeth and improving lifestyle all with simple clear aligner protocols.

Align with the facts
Brush up on the Facts:
The Pros – worn correctly, you are guaranteed to get straighter teeth over time
The Cons – you have to wear your aligners for 22 hours of the day minimum, dedication is required although it becomes an easy habit to follow once you are into the process.
What are the costs
Costs vary depending on the type and length of treatment and every patient will have a different set of circumstances.
The price bracket for aligners starts from R25,000 to R120,000. Again, this depends on the number of aligners a person needs and the type or brand.
