Question 1

How do you decide which provider to match me with?

Accepted Answer

Matching uses three inputs in order: distance from your postcode (we shortlist providers within a sensible drive time), case-type fit (Lite, Moderate or Comprehensive based on what you describe in the form), and current consultation availability (we only suggest providers who can see you within 14 working days).

Question 2

What if there isn't a provider in my exact town?

Accepted Answer

We cover Essex with a 12-town anchor list and route patients to the nearest practice in the network. Most Essex postcodes are within a 25-minute drive of at least one Platinum provider. If your postcode is genuinely unserved, we tell you and recommend the nearest non-network provider on Align Technology's public directory.

Question 3

Can I switch providers mid-treatment?

Accepted Answer

In principle yes, but in practice it adds cost (a second initial scan, possible re-modelling fee) and most clinics will require you to settle the original treatment plan. The cleaner solution is to choose carefully at the consultation stage. Bring written quotes from two clinics if you are torn, both will run a comparative ClinCheck for free.
