Tooth-Coloured Braces

Tooth coloured aesthetic braces are the clear alternative to metal braces. Unlike traditional metal braces tooth coloured braces are more discreet. These are extremely popular with adult orthodontic treatments where aesthetics are important or for nervous younger patients who may be concerned about having visible braces.Tooth coloured braces do not stain or discolour throughout treatment.

All the new rapid and less-visible orthodontic options mean that more and more adults are choosing to straighten (and whiten) their healthy teeth. We offer rapid and clear removable appliances such as Inman Aligner and Invisalign. We also offer fixed orthodontics with either tooth coloured or clear brackets (Damon system) and Incognito, the one that is hidden on the inside.

Invisalign

Nothing beats a sincere and honest smile. Throughout your day-to-day life an enhanced smile can give you more confidence and enable you to feel happier along with making the best impression!

If you're after a smile that enhances your appearance, Invisible braces are the treatment for you. Despite the many orthodontic options out there, no alternative works with the ease of invisible clear braces. Invisible braces are the optimum way to change your smile without affecting your lifestyle.

Invisalign

Invisalign can help you achieve the smile you have always wanted. It is...

  •     Invisible - so no one can tell you're straightening your teeth. So now you can smile more during treatment as well as after.
  •     Removable - so you can eat and drink whatever you like whilst undergoing treatment and brush/floss as normal.
  •     Comfortable - as it is metal free and inobtrusive.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Each set of clear aligners is worn for 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. The aligners should be worn for at least 22 hours per day for the best results.

As each aligner is replaced by the next, the teeth will move gradually until they have straightened to the final position.

You will visit your orthodontist once every 6-8 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is 18-30, but this will vary from case to case.

Incognito - Hidden "Lingual" Braces

Lingual braces are the ideal choice for individuals of all ages who would like to have their teeth straightened discreetly yet most accurately. The difference between lingual braces and traditional braces is that they are placed behind your teeth so no one will ever know unless YOU tell them.They are created using state of the art technology and are completely customised to the shape of your teeth and to your dental situation. Your orthodontist will build in a unique prescription to get the results that you want.

Inman Aligner

The Inman Aligner is a fantastic, simple and hassle-free way of straightening your front teeth. It is the orthodontic treatment of choice for adult relapse.

In the past anyone with crooked teeth have had only a few choices. Fixed braces and clear braces work well but are slow and can also be costly.

Because of this many people choose to have porcelain veneers instead. This often involves heavy grinding of the teeth to get them into the right position first. As a result many patients choose to do nothing and just live with it.

However the Inman Aligner now gives us all a very real alternative. Because it works so quickly and efficiently, if you don't like the idea of having brackets stuck to your teeth or waiting months and months for a clear brace to work, you can now have your front teeth straightened in as little as 6 -16 weeks.

Damon Braces

The Damon System is not just about revolutionary braces and wires, it's a whole new way of treating patients. Traditional treatment often requires removal of healthy teeth and/or the use of palatal expanders to make space. This approach is often uncomfortable, takes longer, and can leave a narrower arch and a flat profile. Damon smiles are full, natural 10-tooth smiles achieved with light biologically-sensible forces, and are specifically designed to improve the overall facial result of each patient.

Damon braces combine three key components, which when used together, deliver faster treatment, fewer appointments, greater comfort, and consistent high-quality results:

  1.     Damon passive self-ligating braces that eliminate the need for elastic or metal "ties". With Damon tie-less braces you can experience treatment without tightening.
  2.     Light high-technology shape-memory wires that move teeth faster and require fewer adjustments.
  3.     A new clinically proven treatment approach that aligns your teeth and enhances your facial aesthetics—usually without extractions or rapid palatal expanders.
