Invisalign Aligners
Invisalign Clear Aligners are a removable brace, however they are worn for most of the day. They are only removed for eating. Made from thin clear material, they fit to your teeth like a detailed gum shield. During the treatment, a succession of aligners are worn that move the teeth into the desired position. Treatment can range from 4 to 12 months depending on the complexity involved.
We Will Guide You Through Your Treatment
Regular appointments with the dentist are needed to track your progress, your oral hygiene, and to perform any alterations to your teeth that might be needed. Frequent appointments also give you the opportunity to talk to the dentist about any worries you may have.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic brackets and white wires fix the brace to your teeth and remain in place for the duration of your treatment. These allow more complex movement of the teeth. Clear ceramic ensures your fixed braces are discreet. They usually take between 6 and 12 months to straighten.
We Will Guide You Through Your Treatment
Oral Hygiene is very important when wearing Fixed Braces due to the brace acting as a trap for food and plaque. We help you take care of your oral hygiene by providing you with advice on how best to look after your teeth whist wearing your braces. You will have regular appointments with the dentist. This helps you to keep on top of your oral hygiene and we can keep track of your progress.
