Crooked and wonky teeth can have a lot of negative implications. They can affect the appearance of your smile which can lower your self-confidence and your self-esteem. If you are unhappy with the appearance of your smile, then it is crucial that you speak with our orthodontist Liverpool and find out about teeth straightening. Teeth straightening has many benefits. Our orthodontist Liverpool will be able to help improve the appearance of your smile, boost your self-confidence and your self-esteem at the same time, and also improve your dental health for the future. Patients with crooked and wonky teeth are more likely to develop cavities, tooth decay and gum disease. If you straighten your teeth, they become easier to brush, you can floss between the teeth, and you can remove more bacteria and plaque from your mouth than those with crooked and wonky teeth. If your teeth are crooked, bacteria and plaque could get caught up in the nooks and crannies of your mouth and result in the formation of plaque and tartar. Plaque and tartar have harmful effects on your teeth and gums. By reducing plaque and tartar in your mouth you reduce the chance of developing cavities, tooth decay and gum disease, your teeth will last for longer and you will be able to enjoy good dental health.
Invisalign or Inman aligner?
Speak to our orthodontist Liverpool and find out about the different teeth straightening options that are available for you. One of the most popular types of modern teeth straightening is using clear aligners. The last few decades have seen a huge surge in the update of adult teeth straightening thanks to the establishment of clear aligner systems. Clear aligners work as an excellent alternative to traditional braces. As the name suggests they use clear thermoplastic aligners to straighten your teeth in comparison to metal components found in traditional braces. Two of the most common clear aligners systems are Invisalign aligners and Inman aligners. Both are highly effective for teeth straightening. They work in different ways and have different purposes so according to your individual dental requirements and your personal preferences, our orthodontist Liverpool will be able to help decide which is the best for you.
Both Invisalign and Inman aligners are removable so they can be taken out of your mouth and replaced as necessary. The difference is that an Inman aligner is used to correct the alignment of protruding front teeth whereas Invisalign is more robust and works to address misalignment issues throughout your mouth. An Inman aligner is better suited for aesthetic purposes, whereas Invisalign helps correct ascetic issues and orthodontic issues promoting better dental health. Both Invisalign and Inman aligners are highly effective at teeth straightening. Inman is faster as it has less work to do whilst Invisalign is more discreet as it uses clear aligners alone to straighten your teeth. Both have their advantages and if you consult with our orthodontist at Liverpool Smile Studio, then you will be able to find out which is the most suitable option for addressing your unique dental needs.
