Not everyone needs to see an orthodontist in Liverpool to get the beautiful smile they long for. There are now many systems for straightening mildly misaligned teeth that do not require the services of an orthodontist in Liverpool.
Here at Liverpool Smile Studio, Dr Janine McGinty is on hand to deliver effective and reliable teeth straightening services. Dr McGinty is one of our practice principals and is trained in the use of four different braces systems. Let’s take a look at them:
Six Month Smiles
These are fixed braces aimed at correcting alignment issues on the front six social teeth only. These teeth only have one root and so can be moved with much gentler forces created by smaller clear ceramic brackets strung together with tooth-coloured wires. The average treatment time is six months.
Invisalign
These are a series of clear plastic aligners that snap on over the teeth like very thin mouth guards. The straightening comes from the pressure created by each aligner, which gently nudges the teeth into position. Each aligner represents an incremental step along the path to alignment. The aligners are almost invisible, and they are also removable for ease of cleaning and for eating.
Inman Aligner
This device only works on the front two teeth. Two aligner bows, spring-loaded for pressure, go behind and in front of the teeth. The Inman Aligner can straighten most front tooth alignment issues in just 6–18 weeks. It is removable for eating and doubles as a retainer, making it very cost-effective.
So if you think you need an orthodontist in Liverpool, why not instead see if Dr McGinty can help with our modern teeth straightening systems. To find out which braces are right for you, simply book an appointment.
