We all want a picture-perfect smile that we can be confident of – one
that lights up the room. However for many, this is not the case. For those with
malalignment issues, there are various treatments available including a number
of fixed braces and clear aligners. Different
in appearance, in method of achieving straight teeth and in the length of time,
each brace has a common end goal - to help guide teeth into their designated
positions, straighten your teeth and fix any issues you may have.
There are four main treatments:
- Fixed orthodontic braces - These are traditional braces that are perhaps the most common. They come with metal brackets and wires that are fixed onto your teeth. Immovable and sometimes uncomfortable, patients, particularly adults, often look for alternative methods of treatment.
- Lingual braces - These are fixed to the back of your teeth where they are safely hidden. However, they can often protrude, interfering with the natural structure of the mouth, sometimes causing a mild or pronounced lisp and obstructing speech.
- Clear braces - Clear braces are a similar design to the fixed braces. However, the brackets and wires are made to blend with your teeth, making them a little more discrete.
- Invisible aligners – Impressions of your teeth are taken to produce clear plastic braces, tailored to fit over your teeth. These clear aligners are extremely subtle and their removable aspect makes them the most convenient, both in terms of practicality, and hygiene.
Teeth straightening with Smilelign
Smilelign offer state-of-the-art orthodontic aligners that are
practical, clinically effective and easy to use - without affecting your
lifestyle. It works by creating a series of virtually invisible aligners,
designed to move your teeth in small increments into the desired position. Popular
with adult patients, this offers a more aesthetically pleasing approach to
orthodontic treatment, as the aligners slot over teeth inconspicuously.
In addition to giving you that beautiful smile, it also improves your general
oral health. Completely removable, clear aligners allow you to clean your teeth
properly, fighting against plaque, tooth decay and gum diseases. Cosmetic
braces improve your self-confidence and are an investment for your future.
A lot of
things in life require effort - a smile should not be one of them!
