Invisible / Lingual Braces

These bespoke braces are bonded to the inner surfaces of the teeth (on the side towards the tongue) thereby truly concealing them from the outside. The system uses the latest computerised technology to produce tailor made braces of the highest quality and the Orthodontist must be specially trained for this procedure. It is ideal for those who would like to achieve that great smile whilst minimising any attention drawn to their treatment.

Clear Aligners

These are a series of custom designed wafer thin clear aligners worn over the treatment period. Each aligner is worn full-time for 10-14 days and by wearing the series given to you by your Orthodontist, it will gently guide your teeth to the desired position. As there are no metal bits and wires, it offers comfort and convenience. The advantage is that the aligners are nearly invisible and you will be able to remove your aligners to eat, brush and floss.

Ceramic

This is a type of fixed brace, very similar to the Stainless Steel Braces . However, many people prefer to have braces that are less noticeable, giving them the confidence to smile during treatment. With ceramic braces, they are translucent or tooth-coloured so that they blend in more with your natural teeth.

Self Ligating Appliances

Self-ligating brackets such as Damon™ are technologically advanced brackets that reduce friction and use lighter forces during  treatment.

By using the Self-Ligating appliances, the patient will experience:

• Increased treatment comfort and speed
• Improved oral cleanliness
• Less need for dental extractions

Please note that some of these treatment appliances are only suitable for specific cases. Your Orthodontist will be happy to discuss your needs and tailor the appliances to your specific case and lifestyle.
