At 61 Dental in Stockport, we offer subtle braces and clear, removable aligners designed to straighten adult teeth. The benefits of teeth straightening are always more than just aesthetic, and at our Stockport clinic we appreciate that there is a need for discretion as well as efficiency when it comes to adult tooth straightening.
Straightening your teeth make them easier to keep clean. When there are fewer areas in which dental plaque can gather, your home tooth brushing and flossing routine can become more effective. As long as you also visit your Stockport dentist and hygienist on a regular basis, using either braces or aligners to straighten your teeth can significantly boost your oral hygiene, cutting your risk of both gum disease and tooth decay.
Stockport braces and aligners
When you come into 61 Dental in Stockport for a tooth straightening consultation, your dentist will perform a thorough examination in order to work out which treatment option to suit your needs.
Among the orthodontic options at our Stockport dental practice are:
Quick Straight Teeth
Quick Straight Teeth is a fast-acting system of cosmetic braces, which are designed to correct mild to moderate issues affecting the front teeth in just a few months. It is the front teeth – those that show in your smile, in other words – which the majority of adults who come to 61 Dental in Stockport are concerned about.
These braces have clear ceramic brackets and tooth-coloured nickel-titanium wires, to blend in seamlessly with the natural colour of your teeth, making them practically invisible in everyday life.
Invisalign
A popular alternative to fixed braces at our Stockport dental practice, treatment with Invisalign involves using a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually move your teeth into a better position.
No special hygiene techniques are required with this treatment, because you take the aligners out to clean and to brush your teeth as normal. They are also removed for eating and drinking, but should be worn for 20-22 hours per day.
Inman Aligner
The Inman Aligner is a single removable appliance, which has a very thin wire but is otherwise entirely invisible.
