How to straighten your teeth without braces in London
While many adults eagerly want their teeth straightened, they feel somewhat awkward and intimidated about wearing metal braces. Luckily, modern dentistry is constantly evolving and discreet teeth straightening options are emerging to make treatment as comfortable as possible.
If you are an adult with crooked, misaligned or overcrowded teeth and do not wish to have metal braces for aesthetic reasons, chances are that you can successfully straighten your teeth with the help of an Invisalign dentist in London. Graham Tinkler, a renowned Invisalign specialist, splits his time between various dental practices in London, even treating patients with Invisalign who were previously refused treatment by other clinics. His dedication to treating complicated cases through from start to finish with passion and accuracy, set him apart from other Invisalign dentists in London.
Why Invisalign?
Invisalign is an innovative treatment that consists of a series of transparent, removable, plastic aligners, which help your teeth move into their correct position over a prescribed period of time by your London dentist. Graham Tinkler will evaluate your problem in detail and create a 3D model of your teeth, including all the expected tooth movements. This model will help him create an individualised treatment plan.
Each aligner is worn for approximately two weeks at a time until replaced with the next one in the series. Every set of aligners is moulded slightly differently, causing teeth to shift slowly into a new position. The end of your treatment period, will be determined by your London dentist, Graham Tinkler.
Benefits of Invisalign
Undoubtedly, the most important benefit of Invisalign is invisibility. Since the aligners are made of clear, high-quality plastic, you can have your teeth straightening without anyone knowing. Moreover, Invisalign aligners are removable allowing you to brush and floss your teeth normally, without having to work around brackets and wires. However, you must wear your aligners for at least 22 hours per day for effective treatment. Another important benefit of Invisalign, is being able to enjoy your favourite foods without the fear of food particles getting stuck in your braces. Finally, Invisalign requires fewer visits to the dentist, therefore, it is ideal for busy adults.
