There are mainly two broad reasons to straighten teeth: aesthetic goals and an extensive array of health-focused benefits from optimal dental health to confidence-boosting mental health. Orthodontic treatment such as invisible braces Clapham can help you achieve all of the above without the need to announce one’s orthodontic goals to the world. Invisible braces Clapham available at our Clapham South Dental Centre makes it possible to keep straightening teeth a private affair.

While the idea of invisible braces Clapham sounds fantastic, as there is more than one type available, it can be a bit confusing for patients to decide which system to use. We offer select choices from transparent Invisalign aligner trays to barely visible Incognito fixed braces.

Our friendly dental practitioners, who have many years of experience in supervising patients’ orthodontic treatment plans, are on hand to discuss all suitable devices, how they work and what is to be expected with each. We have collated pressing questions that our patients want to be answered and here are some of them.

Are transparent braces good at straightening teeth?

Transparent braces have been used to great effect for many orthodontic conditions that are mild to moderate in nature while severe orthodontic conditions may benefit best from fixed appliances. Patients, particularly those whose treatment plan involves correcting misalignment issues with the front six to eight teeth, see desirable results in a relatively quick time.

What is the process of cleaning transparent braces?

The answer to this question brings up another wonderful advantage of choosing discreet braces. The process of cleaning the braces and mouth will differ, depending on whether a patient is on a fixed invisible device or a removable aligners plan. For the former, we advise that a patient rinse their mouth out with water first before brushing. A soft-bristled toothbrush will work best.

For a patient on the latter treatment plan, as the aligner trays are removed before cleaning teeth, they simply need to brush and floss as usual. Once this is done, the aligner trays must be sterilised before they are inserted back onto the teeth.

What is the topmost reason to choose transparent braces?

It all comes down to the fact that these types of braces are invisible. This makes them a good choice for adults whose careers are in the public domain and who want to straighten their teeth. These types of orthodontic devices are also the right option for those who will be attending special events soon but do not want to put off straightening their teeth any longer.

Another reason to consider is the fact that transparent braces reduce the risk of damage to the enamel. These braces are easily removed from the teeth and, as there is no bonding material used in attaching them, they come off easily leaving the enamel intact.

With our great choice in clear orthodontic solutions, at Clapham South Dental Centre, teeth straightening can be convenient and comfortable. So, why not find not more by arranging for a consultation today?
