How orthodontic treatment can help you achieve a better smile

Orthodontics is the term used to refer to the area of dentistry that uses appliances to straighten an individual’s teeth. These appliances are more commonly known as braces and due to advancements in dental technology, there are now more treatment options for our adult patients that can help them achieve straighter teeth. At our practice, we offer a dental solution known as Six Months Smiles Guildford, an alternative to traditional metal braces made to be more efficient and discreet for our patients who would like to straighten their teeth.

An alternative to traditional metal braces

Six Month Smiles Guildford is a revolutionary step in orthodontic treatment, as we are able to correct a wide range of aesthetic dental issues such as crooked or crowded teeth, gaps in between teeth and misaligned bites using this system.

Similar to traditional metal braces, they are made of metal parts that are fixed onto a patient’s teeth and are held together by a metal wire, however, unlike traditional metal braces, both the metal wires and brackets are made to be tooth coloured. This makes them practically invisible and for the duration of your treatment, no one will know you are having your teeth straightened unless you tell them.

It is important to note that Six Month Smiles Guildford is suitable for more minor corrections, and prior to starting treatment, your teeth will be assessed to ensure that this form of orthodontic treatment is suitable for you.

If it is found that it is not the most suitable orthodontic treatment for your dental concerns, and you are still looking for a discreet way to straighten your teeth, you may want to consider Invisalign,

Invisalign at Farnham Road Dental Practice

A popular choice with our adult patients, Invisalign is a revolutionary teeth-straightening system that, unlike traditional metal braces, uses clear removable aligners to slowly move your teeth into their desired position. Invisalign is able to correct both minor and complex dental issues and throughout the duration of your treatment you will be able to maintain a good oral care regime as well as eat any type of food you wish, due to the fact that you can take them out.
