Visible smiles with invisible braces in London
Would you like to straighten your teeth without anyone knowing? As an adult you are probably not thrilled with the idea of metal braces. With modern advancements in dentistry however, there are now other teeth straightening options for adults who wish to have a better smile.
Invisalign clear braces can treat many common problems experienced by adults, teenagers and children, such as overbites, spacing and crooked teeth. Invisalign uses a series of clear plastic removable aligners that will slowly and gradually move your teeth to the right position.
If you are looking to straighten your teeth in London with Invisalign, Dr Graham Tinkler is one of the UK’s leading and most experienced Invisalign dentists. He has successfully treated many patients and is committed to achieving the best results for each individual case.
Until the introduction of Invisalign, dentists generally used two teeth straightening treatments: traditional metal braces and lingual braces placed on the inside surfaces of the teeth. Here are a few ways Invisalign has revolutionised modern dentistry.
Removable braces
Although Invisalign retainers have to be worn at least 20-22 hours per day,they can be removed for eating and cleaning your teeth. This offers patients more comfort and control as opposed to traditional fixed, metal braces.
Ideal for teens
Between school, extra-curricular activities, sports and dating, the thought of adding metal braces into the picture is an overwhelming for teenagers. If you are a teen unsure whether to go ahead with Invisalign in London, Dr Graham Tinkler will carry out a full consultation to determine the best type of treatment depending on your type of teeth.
With Invisalign you don’t have to worry about your looks, hurting your mouth with metal brackets or trouble eating your favourite foods – the clear aligners are very easy to adjust to and can be replaced if they get lost.
Painless treatment
Modern metal braces are much more lightweight and comfortable to wear than older versions, making those monthly adjustments not nearly as painful. However, Invisalign is completely pain-free. Custom-made retainers embrace your teeth and fit snugly over your gums.
For all these reasons, if you are looking for Invisalign in London, Dr Graham Tinkler will guide you through the treatment options available.
