Types of invisible braces
Options for fixed invisible braces in Clapham have people seeing new straight smiles a lot sooner than with the old traditional braces. Having a fixed appliance means you don’t need to worry about remembering to keep them in or losing them.
Cfast – this is a system that focuses on the social six teeth, which means that the front top and bottom 6 teeth are the ones that get adjusted instead of all the teeth in the mouth, this system does not promise to correct major orthodontic problems but can quickly adjust the teeth that people see when you smile. By fixing tooth-coloured nickel brackets to these 12 teeth and feeding a wire through the special mounts, we are able to pull the teeth into position through the tension placed on the wire.
Damon – the Damon system is similar to Cfast in that it uses clear or tooth coloured brackets and wires to adjust teeth except that these brackets can be fitted to all the teeth if needs be to correct any orthodontic issue as well as malocclusions. This is the system that is closest to traditional braces but it is more discrete and works much faster.
Incognito – also known as lingual braces, this is a system similar to Damon but instead of being fitted to the front of the teeth, brackets are secured to the back of the teeth and still perform their job really well, this is the most ‘invisible’ system available to you as people will not see the braces at all.
While there may be many types of removable invisible braces in Clapham, none work as well or are more popular than the clear aligner system that Invisalign offers.
Invisalign uses the most advanced 3D imaging technology to create custom clear aligners that gently push your teeth into position in a matter of months. The clear aligners are completely removable which make them ideal to fit into even the most active of lifestyles. One of the major benefits of a clear aligner system is that you don’t have to make constant trips to the dentist to get them adjusted, you just pop in the next aligner in your series every 1-2 weeks and you’re ready to go.
