In alphabetical order. This is not a ranking.
Reviewed but not available to compare
- Diamond Whites Impress acquired Diamond Whites, and new cases are now quoted at an Impress clinic.
- NewSmile Its aligners could not be ordered online when we checked on 27 October 2026: the order button led to a missing page, and the shop listed no aligners.
Who is included. A provider can be compared when we have a current review, new patients can start with it in the UK, and we could confirm how treatment starts and how progress is checked. A missing price never rules a provider out: practice-set fees are shown as practice fees or as a quote. Being listed is not a recommendation.
Providers that have closed, changed or could not be confirmed are listed under Looking for another provider? on the reviews page. Prices and terms change, so confirm them with the provider before you pay.
Not sure where to start? Our guide to the best clear aligners in the UK explains which providers we would look at first, and why.
