Orthodontics is the specialty of dentistry that is concerned with the treatment of improper bites and crooked teeth.Orthodontic treatment can help fix the patient's teeth and set them in the right place. Orthodontists usually use braces and clear aligners to set the patient's teeth.
In our clinics we use the following orthodontic treatments :
Fixed Braces
Fixed orthodontic braces are the more traditional type of brace system, comprised of metal wires and brackets that are attached to the front tooth surface. They are often thought to be uncomfortable and unattractive, and in the last few years they have been replaced by more modern discreet alternatives. However, fixed braces are often the best option for complex orthodontic conditions.
Get in touch and our dental clinician can explain the differences between traditional braces and modern brace solutions to you.
Lingual Braces
Lingual braces fit behind the teeth so that they are completely unnoticeable throughout treatment. Patients benefit from the discretion of lingual braces, meaning they can successfully treat their smile without the stigma of wearing noticeable metal braces.
Used to right severe orthodontic irregularities and bite issues, Lingual Braces give teeth a beautifully symmetrical look to enhance smiles in the same way as traditional braces, but without the noticeable fixtures.
Invisalign
Invisalign aligners are one of the foremost invisible brace solutions. People who feel embarrassed about wearing braces can receive this discreet treatment with the assurance that they look good both during and after treatment.
The aligners which form the Invisalign series are comfortable to wear, moving teeth gently into correct alignment. The dentist will monitor the progress of Invisalign treatment to ensure optimal orthodontic pressure is applied for beneficial results.
Easily removed for eating and cleaning, Invisalign braces are one of the most hygienic braces. They allow for utmost confidence in normal daily activities and socialising
