Clear braces, a discreet way to straighten your teeth

Don’t allow your mood to be dampened because you are unhappy with your misaligned teeth. Where once the only real option to straightening your teeth was a cumbersome metal brace, now there are numerous options. Clear braces Sydney allow you to receive your treatment discreetly. A thorough examination and assessment of your condition is required in the first instance. Some conditions will benefit from the use of more than one dental straightening appliance in the treatment plan. Using 3D scanners and X-rays we are able to provide before and after images so that you can see what results may be produced.

More than a cosmetic benefit

Having your teeth straightened does more than enhance your self-esteem. A misaligned bite can cause dental damage because when you eat your teeth are not lining up, this can result in chipping. Teeth that are not aligned correctly can even break and become worn. Straighter teeth also allow you to clean between your teeth properly reducing gum and tooth disease. One of the biggest causes of tooth loss is gum disease, so it makes sense therefore to straighten your teeth to be able to keep them clean and healthy, so that they will last.

Tried and proven principle

Clear braces Sydney use the same tried and tested principles as original metal braces, but use twenty-first century technology. One version uses ceramic brackets which are fitted to your teeth incorporating frosted wires which blend in with your natural tooth colour.

Checking the health of your teeth

Before any treatment of misaligned teeth can commence as part of our examination and assessment we will determine the health of your teeth and gums. Any tooth decay will need to be completely treated first. Gum disease causes more damage than any other oral problems and we will treat any gum disease before commencing a dental straightening procedure. Once your teeth and gums are healthy, we will advise you if you are a suitable candidate for clear braces. The severity of your misalignment will determine your suitability.

Different materials

Clear braces now come in a wide range of materials. Resin and polycarbonate, zirconium, ceramic, porcelain and synthetic sapphire.

An improved procedure

Our team regularly attends seminars on new techniques and training on new equipment to ensure the maximum comfort of our patients during procedures. As a dynamic dentist we have adopted the latest techniques used in placing clear braces Sydney. We take moulds of the patient’s teeth to ensure that the brackets used are specifically designed to fit a particular patient’s teeth. We then attach the entire piece and use dental cement which we harden with a special light. At regular intervals you will need to come into the surgery so that we can make the necessary adjustment to move your teeth together. The duration of the process depends on your condition. In certain cases we will use more than one type of brace to achieve the desired results.
