ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT
Orthodontics is in a stage of innovation with brace systems now able to invisibly straighten your teeth and correct orthodontic problems in a matter of months. Teeth straightening is more gentle and patient-friendly than ever before and there is no need for tooth extraction in most cases. Braces can make a truly amazing change to your appearance, bringing symmetry and harmony to your smile and facial structure.
At Chelsea Dental Studio we provide a brace for every need, condition and requirement, ensuring that the orthodontic treatment you receive is perfectly suited to you.
Invisible Braces
As standard, braces used to be thick, bulky, highly noticeable and a bit of an embarrassment to wear for those above the age of 18. However, braces today are not so intruding and if you are looking for effective treatment without the need for visible wires and brackets, we have a great collection of invisible braces at Chelsea Dental Studio.
Some of the most popular invisible brace systems today include:
Invisalign®
Invisalign® revolutionised the way people considered braces treatment because it uses clear, plastic aligners, instead of metal wires and brackets, to gently move the teeth into place.
Your custom-made Invisalign® aligners change every two weeks, with each new aligner fitting in your mouth slightly differently to gently coax the teeth into place. Invisalign® has the advantage of being highly discreet, completely removable and one of the most hygienic braces available.
Your smile will emerge as if from nowhere, without anyone being able to tell that you are having treatment.
Invisalign® Lite
Invisalign® Lite is the invisible option for those who have mild orthodontic problems. Following the same treatment plan as traditional Invisalign®, Invisalign® Lite only use a maximum of 10 aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. The same clear plastic is used to create your Invisalign® Lite aligners – the only difference is that you will have to wear fewer aligners. This means that your treatment can be over in a matter of months and you can enjoy your rejuvenated smile sooner.
Invisalign® Teen
Invisalign® Teen works in the same manner as ordinary Invisalign®, but each aligner comes with an indicator dot to show both the dentist and parent how long the aligner has been worn and when the next aligner is required. Invisalign® Teen also comes with extra sets of aligners in case any of the original sets go missing. It is an excellent choice of treatment for younger patients.
Incognito™ Braces
Incognito braces combine the best of traditional and invisible braces. Fixed to the back of your teeth, Incognito braces provide all the tooth movement you need to correct even the most complex orthodontic conditions, whilst remaining completely unnoticeable behind your teeth.
Each Incognito brace is custom-fitted to your mouth and it uses the smallest brackets and wires to sit comfortably on the back of your teeth. They may initially feel strange, but very soon you will have mastered the art of wearing Incognito braces and soon after that the art of wearing a beautiful smile.
Incognito braces are the best braces for those with more complex orthodontic problems but who still wish to keep their treatment discreet.
Simpli5
Simpli5 uses 5 aligners to gently correct mild orthodontic problems. Each aligner is custom-made to suit your orthodontic prescription and can enhance or touch up your smile in as little as 4 months.
Clear plastic is used to create each aligner, meaning your treatment will remain undetected the entire time you are wearing the Simpli5 aligner. To optimise your Simpli5 treatment you will need to wear your brace at least 22 hours each day, to ensure that your teeth are always benefiting from your aligners.
STb Social 6 Lingual braces
Social 6 braces are a completely invisible brace treatment, which uses self-ligating dental technology to quickly and discreetly straighten your smile.
Social 6 braces use wires and self-ligating brackets attached to the back of the teeth to straighten and correct mild and moderate orthodontic problems, all of which is done with the minimum amount of friction and discomfort.
Patients can literally see their gorgeous new smile form before their eyes without anyone even knowing they are having treatment. Problems can be corrected in as little as 10 weeks, making Social 6 braces an amazing combination of invisible and fast treatment.
Fixed and Fast Acting Braces
For those looking for a gorgeous new smile in a limited amount of time we offer a great range of fast acting braces, perfect for those preparing for an upcoming special occasion.
Six Month Smiles
Six Month Smiles is (as their name suggests) able to correct orthodontic conditions in six months or less and is ideal for those looking to enhance their smile in time for a special occasion, like a wedding.
Six Month Smiles is able to achieve this amazing feat by focusing only on the teeth you see when you smile. The system uses tooth coloured wires and brackets to bring your teeth into the correct position and it is one of the most discreet fixed brace systems available.
As the brace system is attached to the teeth, Six Month Smiles is ideal for correcting problems other removable aligners are unable to and is suitable for a range of orthodontic problems.
Damon Braces
Damon braces are an innovative brace system which can straighten your teeth up to six months earlier than traditional fixed braces.
Damon braces have been specially designed to ease discomfort during treatment, provide optimum movement at all times and cut down on the number of return appointments to the dentist. This is all possible due to their innovative self-ligating brackets, which replace the need for elastic bands or metal ties.
Because these brackets can be specifically and accurately tempered for your smile, there is less discomfort and feelings of pressure with Damon braces. This removal of elastic or steel ligatures also means that you are less likely to suffer from the oral health problems experienced by those with other traditional metal braces.
Damon braces are not as discreet as brace systems such as Invisalign®, but as they can provide results in as little as 10 weeks they make up for their appearance by enhancing yours in an incredibly short period of time.
Inman Aligner
The Inman Aligner is one the fastest brace systems available and can make a noticeable difference to the alignment of your teeth in as little as 6 weeks.
The aligner utilises both sides of your teeth, with a coiled spring running along the back and a clear bar across the front to gently ‘squeeze’ your smile into place. The Inman Aligner is also completely removable, meaning you can take it out for special occasions and cleaning to ensure your mouth stays healthy and clean.
Although it is not as discreet as some of the other braces, the Inman Aligner can correct your orthodontic problem in as little as 6-16 weeks.
Advanced brace systems
We have taken the time to invest in this amazing range of brace systems to ensure that our patients’ individual needs are met and the right treatment is available for their personal orthodontic condition. To find out which brace is best suited to you give the practice a call.
