When It Comes to a Perfect Smile, the Solution is Clear

We all want a perfect smile, but the methods of obtaining one can be a little daunting. When our teeth need straightening, visions of traditional dental braces come to mind: metal appliances that require frequent tightening and have to be worn for years. The good news is that these metal braces are now the exception and not the rule. Invisible braces in Manchester are our specialty.
Invisalign®
Invisalign® is a set of clear dental aligners that resemble the essix retainers worn after traditional braces have been removed. The difference, however, is that retainer only maintaining your teeth while Invisalign, which is just as comfortable, actually straighten them?
Here are the benefits of Invisalign®:
The aligners are practically invisible, so you can smile and laugh easily.
Unlike traditional braces, they can be taken out while you eat, so you can enjoy nuts, candy, and chewy foods while undergoing treatment.
They don't need to be tightened, so pain is minimal.
Each set of aligners is worn for an average of two weeks, and you remove them only to eat, drink, and clean your teeth. As each aligner is replaced by the next in the series, your teeth gradually shift until they have attained the final straightened position that your dentist has prescribed. Once you've finished wearing your last set, an essix retainer is all that's needed to maintain your perfected new smile.
We have helped many patients improve their smiles with Invisalign. Call Clear Braces Manchester today to schedule an appointment with our Invisalign-certified dentists and get the smile that you've always wanted.
Lingual Braces
Lingual braces are placed on the back side of the teeth, hiding them from view and allowing you to smile with confidence for the duration of your orthodontic treatment. Also known as invisible braces, inside braces, and hidden braces, the lingual braces offered in our Manchester office are specially contoured to the inner shapes of your teeth, making them more comfortable to wear and minimising their impact on your ability to speak clearly.
Lingual braces were once the exclusive domain of celebrities and other high-profile public figures. Now they are a practical treatment for anyone who wants to have comprehensive yet discreet orthodontic work to improve their smile. Inherent advantages include invisibility (no one can tell you're wearing braces) and their effectiveness on all types of bite problems, particularly when clear aligners are not a viable solution.
Like traditional braces, lingual braces work by applying gentle and continuous pressure on your teeth, guiding them slowly into proper position. Depending on the severity of your bite problem or tooth overcrowding, treatment can take anywhere from 18 to 36 months.
If you're looking for lingual braces in Manchester, call our office. We'll schedule a consultation that will result in a major smile upgrade.
