Never before have there been so many ways to have your teeth straightened. For this reason, making the right decision is important. At Liverpool Smile Studio, our experienced orthodontist in Liverpool will help you navigate your options and choose the right treatment for your individual needs and lifestyle.
Treatment options for adults
For many adults, the mere thought of having to wear metal brackets and wires for months or ever years, can discourage them from receiving orthodontic treatment. However, modern orthodontics have advanced considerably and treatment options are discreet and versatile. Our orthodontist in Liverpool will help you choose from a variety of braces and appliances that are comfortable, aesthetic, and customised to meet your needs.
Different types of braces we offer at Liverpool Smile Studio include fixed braces, clear aligners and removable appliances.
Fixed braces
Fixed braces consist of small square brackets that are fixed onto the teeth. Wires are then tied to the brackets to help move the teeth into their correct position over time. For patients who are concerned about the appearance of metal braces, we also offer tooth-coloured fixed braces made of ceramic as well as Six Month Smiles braces for straighter teeth in six months or less.
Invisalign clear aligners
Invisalign is an innovative teeth straightening treatment that, instead of brackets and wires, uses transparent, plastic, removable aligners. These aligners are made with the help of 3D technology to help your orthodontist in Liverpool monitor your progress from the beginning of the treatment to the end. Invisalign aligners are comfortable to wear since they are made of smooth plastic and they can be removed in case you need to eat or brush your teeth.
Removable appliances
Removable appliances such as Inman aligners are used to correct minor problems associated with the front teeth. They are comfortable to wear and you can see results in only a few weeks. However, ensure that you wear them for the biggest part of the day for effective treatment – they should only be removed for eating or cleaning your teeth.
