Invisible Braces and what are the best options?

You might be surprised to hear that more and more adults as well as teenagers and children are having invisible braces fitted. In the past dental braces have been traditionally fitted more for children and teenagers.  What has brought about this change is the introduction of clear braces and invisible braces? These allow correction and movement of the teeth without the unsightly appearance. New advances in technology and materials have opened up a range of invisible and clear options.

This in itself is one of the reasons why more adults are having this treatment, but also we have the fact that often these adults have underdeveloped dental arches. Sometimes the lower jaw has not fully developed as the lower teeth were locked into position by the upper teeth. This results in the lower third of the face being smaller, the upper lip more protruding and often makes it difficult to chew food and pronounce certain words. Another common cause is thumb sucking as a child, which can lead to the upper front teeth being more protrusive and the lower front teeth being more retruded.

The good news is that all of these things can be corrected as well as restoring the correct relationship between the teeth and the lower third of the face.

The relationship between the upper and lower teeth and the degree of correction required would dictate which option of treatment is most suitable. Your choice of treatment would also be influenced by the treatment time itself (some systems work faster than others) cost, and the invisibility of each option.

If the clinician or orthodontist that you visit, doesn’t offer a wide range of options, then how would you know which is the best option for you?.

Here at My Brilliant Smile Dental Centre we do have the full range of options and will discuss all of those options with you, so that your proposed treatment plan is based on informed consent. We give you all the unbiased facts so that you can decide which option is most suitable for you and we will advise you as to which options will not produce the best results in your individual case.
