Dentist Near Forfar: Invisalign
Straighter Teeth, Half an Hour Down the Road
Forfar has no railway station, so most people come to us by car: roughly 14 miles down the A90 and round the Kingsway, about half an hour door to door. At the end of it, on Brook Street in Broughty Ferry, is a practice with a very large Invisalign caseload. If you live in Forfar and are weighing up straightening your teeth as an adult, read on: crowding that has crept in with age, a space that never closed up, or teeth that wandered after the braces came off.Forfar to Brook Street is about half an hour. Most Forfar patients come for Invisalign: crowding, gaps, or teeth that drifted after braces.
The consultation and iTero scan are free. Packages start at £2,500. 1
What Diamond Apex Actually Means
Invisalign grades its providers on the number of cases they treat. Diamond Apex is the highest grade, the busiest 1% of providers across Europe, and Ferry Smile Studios has been awarded it each year from 2022 to 2026.
It counts cases and nothing else. It's not a qualification, and it guarantees nobody's outcome. What it tells someone travelling from Forfar is that aligners are routine work on Brook Street, whether that's a minor tidy-up or a bite that needs real thought. Every case is planned and overseen by Dr Nikhil Sharma.

Included in Each Package
Nothing gets bolted on midway. Every package includes all of this.
Those three extras would cost £950 bought on their own.
Straight Talking
Aligners move teeth only while they're in, which means 20 to 22 hours a day. The cases that overrun belong to people who kept theirs in a pocket.
Certain bites do better with fixed braces, especially when the jaws themselves don't line up. If that applies to you, we'll tell you and arrange an orthodontic referral instead of pushing aligners beyond their strengths.
The simulation is also an aim, not a promise. Everyone responds differently. 2
Working It Round Your Week
A good share of our Invisalign patients are adults with busy diaries, so appointments are kept brief and infrequent. Opening times: Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5pm. Closed at weekends.
Scan and Preview
A putty-free digital scan, then a stage-by-stage view of how your teeth would move, before you decide anything.
First Aligners
Tiny tooth-coloured attachments go on to a few teeth so the aligners can grip, and you leave with your opening sets.
Short Check-Ins
Quick progress reviews at intervals set by Dr Sharma, timed so the trip down from Forfar costs you as little of the working day as possible.
After the Straightening
Aligners usually go first, with some finishing work once they're done.
