In Weybridge, orthodontics is the dental treatment designed to improve the appearance and alignment of teeth. How this is achieved is usually through the use of braces or aligners. Dentists are required to go through extra years of study to focus solely on orthodontics and the satisfying results it produces.
At Weybridge Orthodontics, we have a team of experienced orthodontists who are dedicated to this field and who are happy to discuss the range of orthodontic treatments appropriate to your needs. With our understanding and know-how, you can be assured that you will come out smiling a new smile.
What orthodontic treatments are available?
In Weybridge, orthodontics comes in many forms. With advances in technology and revolutionary new designs, the majority of orthodontic treatments are discreet or attract minimal attention, there are even some that are completely hidden from sight. New designs also mean that some forms of braces reposition the teeth much faster than those of the past. Of course, the treatments available and the time frame in which they work are highly dependent upon each individual case.
Here are some examples of the orthodontic options we have to offer.
Clarity braces
Beautifully designed for aesthetics. With the use of clear ceramic brackets and a delicate wire, they are subtle yet effective.
Gemini braces
These are for the young at heart. Metal braces with the use of brightly coloured elastics to make them bold and exciting.
Incognito braces
These are also metal braces, but fixed behind your teeth, so completely hidden from view.
Invisalign
These are a set of translucent aligners that can be removed for eating and brushing. They are clear, so unnoticeable to the untrained eye.
Orthodontics even extend to the protection of teeth. Custom-made mouthguards are essential during certain sports and need to fit perfectly to ensure the highest protection.
In Weybridge, orthodontic treatments are diverse, and can even fix that one tooth that is tipping ever so slightly in the wrong direction but irritates you every time you look in the mirror. Whatever the major or minor concern is about your teeth, the chances are likely that there is an orthodontic option waiting to remedy your situation.
