Many people hate the thought of wearing metal braces and clear aligners offer a system that is practically invisible.
Custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, the aligners are crafted from a durable and resilient material, designed to withstand bending or cracking. They are also simple and convenient to put in and take out, making them incredibly user-friendly. As the aligners are completely removable, you can effortlessly take them out whenever needed, allowing you to continue enjoying all your favourite foods without any restrictions.
Additionally, this flexibility ensures that your oral hygiene routine remains uninterrupted, as you can brush and floss your teeth just as you normally would. However, it’s important to clean your teeth thoroughly before placing the aligners back in. This step helps prevent food particles from becoming trapped against your teeth, which could otherwise lead to discomfort or oral health issues over time. By following these steps, you can maintain both your smile and your aligners in excellent condition.
Traditional fixed braces are the most effective system to treat more severe overcrowding. The main disadvantage of traditional braces is their appearance with their metal brackets and wires. Thankfully, we don’t use headgear anymore!
Using the latest ceramic brackets and tooth coloured wires cosmetic braces are much more discreet than the traditional ‘train track’ braces.
