From Carstairs or Carstairs Junction, Lanark is about 5 miles west, and two of our dentists, Dr Kalsi and Dr Gray, provide Invisalign here. For adults thinking about straightening, it usually comes down to one of three things: crowding that has crept in with age, a space that has always been there, or teeth that wandered after teenage braces.Carstairs and Carstairs Junction are about 4 miles east. Adults come to us for Invisalign: crowding, gaps, or teeth that moved after braces.
The consultation, iTero scan included, is free. Packages start at £3,250. 1
What Diamond Apex Means
Invisalign grades its providers by the number of cases they treat, and Diamond Apex is the highest grade. Our group has held it every year from 2022 to 2026.
It's a measure of case numbers alone. It is not a qualification, and no badge can promise an individual result. What it does mean for someone from Carstairs is that aligner treatment is routine work for our group, whether it's a small touch-up or a complicated bite. Here in Lanark, Dr Kalsi and Dr Gray plan and oversee each case.

Plain Facts
Aligners work only when they're worn, about 20 to 22 hours a day. When treatment overruns, it's usually because the aligners spent too long in their case.
Some bites respond better to fixed braces, especially when the jaws themselves don't line up. If that applies to you, we'll tell you and recommend braces, rather than push aligners beyond what they do well.
The simulation shows the goal, not a guarantee. Results differ from person to person. 2
Fitting It Round Your Week
Plenty of aligner patients work full time, so we keep appointments short and well spaced. Opening hours: Monday to Thursday, 9am to 5.30pm, and Friday, 9am to 5pm. Closed at weekends.
Scan and Preview
A putty-free digital scan, then a stage-by-stage look at how your teeth would shift, all before you agree to anything.
First Aligners
Tiny tooth-coloured attachments go on some teeth so the aligners can grip, and you leave with your first sets.
Short Reviews
Quick progress appointments at intervals Dr Kalsi or Dr Gray decide, so you aren't in and out of the practice every week.
After Straightening
Once teeth are aligned, a small amount of finishing work often follows.
Aligner Questions
