Braces

Do you dream of having perfectly straight teeth?
While not everyone is born with a flawless smile, braces can help get your teeth back into line and straighten your smile so that it truly shines.

What are braces?

Braces are a modern orthodontic solution designed to correct and align your smile.
Traditional braces use metal or ceramic brackets bonded to the teeth with a connecting wire which are adjusted using elastic bands to exert pressure on the teeth over time. This pressure gradually shifts your teeth into their correct position.
Alternatively, Invisalign is an advanced clear orthodontic appliance that uses customised sets of thin trays to exert pressure and move your teeth into the perfect alignment. Although they apply pressure in a similar manner to traditional braces, Invisalign is a more discrete attractive option which can also be more comfortable and easier to clean and maintain.

Why would I need braces?

Braces, whether conventional or Invisalign, can help correct many orthodontic issues such as crooked teeth, overcrowded teeth, unevenly spaced teeth, overbites, and underbites.

Braces are a great option if you want to straighten your teeth and perfect your smile. They are custom designed and fitted just for you in order to get the best result possible. Braces not only serve to improve your look and aesthetics but by correctly aligning your teeth they can reduce the stresses on your bite and jaws and also prevent gum and periodontal disease.

Orthodontics

Orthodontics aims to treat patients with dental alignment irregularities, which are often in the form of crowded teeth and a bad bite. Initially, orthodontics focused on the treatment of adolescent teeth, but adults now form a significant amount of orthodontic patients.

Apart from crooked teeth, overbites, underbites, and crossbites, orthodontics may also treat temporomandibular disorders (TMD).
