Invisalign Braces Manchester – The Future is Clear

Invisalign Braces Manchester – The Future is Clear

If you’re seeking Manchester invisible braces, it’s fair to say that they don’t come any better than Invisalign braces Manchester. In fact when it comes to appearing inconspicuous, Invisalign clear braces offers Manchester patients complete discretion. This means that adults can now wear orthodontic braces knowing that unless they mention it, work colleagues and friends, will probably never know that they’re undergoing orthodontic treatment.

While discretion is a big part of what makes Invisalign braces so special, perhaps the most striking aspect about this type of brace system is that it’s about as far removed from conventional bracket and wiring style braces that you can imagine. So what’s different? Let’s take a closer look.

One versus a series

Most conventional braces and even other aligner-style systems have just one brace that you wear for the duration of your treatment. Conversely when it comes to Invisalign braces, Manchester patients may be surprised to learn that treatment consists of a whole series of aligners, known as trays, which are changed every two weeks. This means that if a treatment lasts as long as 2 years, a patient may have up to 48 trays to wear during that time.

So why is this? Well…this brings us onto our next difference..

Not a bracket or wire in sight

The vast majority of so called clear braces and invisible braces Manchester utilise a bracket and wiring style system. While some are more discreet than others using tooth coloured brackets and thin wiring, people may still get a glimpse of metal when a person smiles or speaks. On the other hand, Invisalign clear braces offers Manchester patients complete discretion because they don’t use any brackets or wiring whatsoever. So how do they straighten teeth?

Each Invisalign aligner or tray is worn like a removable gum shield and is pre-programmed to move the teeth into a certain position. When the teeth have reached that position (usually within 2-3 weeks) the current aligner is removed and the next one in the series is put into place, where it continues to move the teeth into the next position. Once the final aligner in the series has been worn for the correct length of time, it will be removed to reveal the patient’s straight new smile.

Because there’s no bracket and wiring needed Invisalign alingers are comfortable to wear and since they’re made from a very light acrylic (virtually the same material as contact lenses are made from) they’re virtually invisible – hence the name.

The whole tooth and nothing but the tooth

Finally, while certain Manchester invisible braces such as lingual braces can correct the whole bite, the majority don’t. Instead they concentrate their efforts on correcting the lower and upper front 6 teeth that are visible when you smile. While Invisalign can do this, they can also address the whole mouth. That includes the non-visible teeth located right at the back. This means that they’re multi-functional and can deal with a whole host of underlying tooth problems such as bite alignment, overcrowding, and tooth root alignment too.

As you can see, Invisalign clear braces, offers Manchester patients the chance to wear discreet invisible braces Manchester like no other. They give a clear and concise indication of the direction in which orthodontic treatments are moving and so far, they really are the adult orthodontics of the future.

Invisible Braces – What Are They And How They Can Help

Invisible Braces Manchester – How Do They Compare?

One of the growing areas of smile dental care in recent years has been adult orthodontics. As people have a greater degree of disposable income, they’re spending more on cosmetic dental treatments than ever before. As a result more and more people are searching online for terms such as ‘Inman aligner costs UK‘, and ‘Invisible Braces Manchester‘.  As discreet or invisible orthodontic treatments are on the rise, it’s worth taking a closer look at how they compare versus the more traditional metal style brace systems.

Types of treatment

While traditional metallic braces treat a whole host of orthodontic issues such as crooked, flared, and overcrowded teeth, bite problems, and tooth root alignment, so too can many types of clear brace systems. In fact many utilise the same bracket and wiring style system of applying continual gentle pressure over a period of time to move teeth into position. As a result if you’d prefer not to show a mouthful of metal when you smile or speak, then clear or invisible braces Manchester will do exactly the same job.

What about cost and availability?

In terms of availability, clear or invisible braces aren’t usually available on the NHS, whereas conventional style metal brace systems are. The reason is that discreet braces are more of a cosmetic choice rather than a necessity. For this reason they’re also more expensive. Some clear orthodontic treatments cost only a fraction more, whereas others such as Invisalign or the Inman aligner costs UK patients much more.

Fixed or removable braces

Traditional metal braces are usually fixed to the teeth for the duration of the treatment as are certain clear brace systems, particularly those that use tooth coloured ceramic brackets and thin titanium wiring. Other invisible braces in Manchester however are designed to be removable so that they can be taken out by the patient when eating and drinking. Or in the case of Invisalign, aligners are removed and replaced for the subsequent one in the series, as the teeth gradually change position.

User-friendliness/comfort

In days of old, metal style braces were heavy, uncomfortable, and took a lot of getting used to. Nowadays with the advances of technology, they utilise smaller brackets and thinner wiring for a less obvious look. Metal braces are also lighter than their older counterparts, so although the wearer will still need a settling in period, that time is often far less. Equally when it comes to discreet smile dental care, those who opt for clear view or invisible braces will still need a period of adjustment to get used to wearing them. The only other point on user friendliness is that because metal braces are made of metal they can (if not finished properly) contain sharp edges. This in turn may cause problems in the mouth. Although this is rare it does happen. On the contrary when you opt for braces such as Invisalign, being made from acrylic they’re totally smooth with no sharp edges to worry about.

As you can see, when it comes to smile dental care, invisible braces Manchester compare favourably when up against their more conventional cousins. It really all boils down to the type and severity of orthodontic treatment needed, how the patient feels about wearing braces, and of course the intended budget.

Are Invisalign Braces In Manchester Worth The Cost

Are Invisalign Braces In Manchester Worth The Cost?

Are you considering Invisalign braces in Manchester? If you are it might be worth pointing out that they are one of the more expensive orthodontic treatments, ranging anywhere from £1500 to £3500. So the question is, are they really worth the cost? Firstly before we answer this let’s take a look at Invisalign braces Manchester in greater detail.

If you’re looking for a discreet type of orthodontic treatment that doesn’t show others that giveaway metallic smile, then it has to be Invisalign. Manchester dental practices throughout the area are finding that patients who need to undergo orthodontic treatment for longer periods of time will favour Invisalign because of this fact. But that’s not all… they differ in many ways and are about as far removed from conventional train track style braces as they could possibly be.

Aligner style

Firstly it’s classed as an ‘aligner style’ brace system in that it does away with the traditional brackets and wiring system that many people wear. Instead, Invisalign looks more like an invisible sports gum shield rather than a type of orthodontic treatment. Also just like a sports gum shield it happens to be worn over the teeth in a similar kind of way. Because of this design the Invisalign brace can also be removed easily by the wearer every time they eat and drink, with the idea being that it’s placed back onto the teeth immediately after.

More than one element

When you imagine orthodontic braces in Manchester, you probably think of one complete unit that’s permanently attached to the mouth for the duration of the treatment. While this is the case with the majority of brace types, with Invisalign braces, Manchester patients can have up to 48 aligners in total. Each aligner (or tray as it’s otherwise known) is designed to fit over the teeth in a specific sequence throughout the duration of the treatment. After 2 weeks the current tray is discarded, since the teeth will have moved to where they need to be, and replaced with the next one in the sequence. The severity of the dental problem is reflected by the amount of aligners that you’ll have.

Okay” I hear you say, “I get it but where does the cost come in?”

Tailor made to suit

While many braces are indeed tailored to fit the mouth of an individual patient, nothing comes close to the engineering involved in making Invisalign. Manchester patients for example will first have to undergo a whole series of  measurements and impressions of their teeth. These impressions are then sent away to a central laboratory where they’re plotted digitally. The computer image is then sent back to the dentist and the patient so that they can see at any one stage of the treatment what position their teeth should be in and how the end result will look. (A kind of virtual trial smile). If all is okay, then the lab will set to work making each individual aligner in the sequence.

Ultimately what you end up with is a carefully manufactured, almost invisible piece of craftsmanship with each aligner in the series made to fit a specific 2-3 week time period of your treatment. Not only this, because it’s designed to be removed, it gives you the flexibility (within reason) of when you want to wear it. These are the reasons why the Invisalign Aligner is one of the more expensive orthodontic treatments on the market.

If you’d like to find out more about Invisalign, Manchester-based Church Road Dental and Cosmetics can help. With our experienced orthodontics team we can advise you on the most suitable braces in Manchester for you. So if you’re a little confused or overawed about braces, Manchester patients should give us a call.

Invisible Braces Manchester – What Are They And How Do They Help

Invisible Braces Manchester – What Are They And How Do They Help?

Okay so you probably know that there are many types of clear braces Manchester offering a more discreet way of wearing adult braces, but what about truly invisible braces Manchester? Is there really such a thing? Let’s take a closer look…

While many Manchester clear braces offer higher levels of discretion than say a conventional metallic style brace would, many systems can still be seen close up when the wearer smiles. For someone who for whatever reason doesn’t want anyone to know that they’re wearing them, this can still be a huge stumbling block to having straighter teeth. Because of this there are other forms of brace systems on the market commonly known as invisible braces. Manchester patients may be pleased to know that there are in fact two brace systems that really can justify the ‘invisible’ tag and that’s Invisalign and Lingual Braces.

Lingual braces

Similarly to many other forms of clear braces Manchester, lingual braces operate using a conventional bracket and wiring system. However unlike most Manchester clear braces, lingual systems are attached to the inside of the teeth and not to the outside. This means that they can’t be seen at all when a person smiles or speaks. Lingual braces are otherwise known as ‘incognito braces’ for obvious reasons and on the whole, they are a longer-term treatment, meaning that they can correct the whole mouth, not just the teeth you see when you smile. As such they can treat a variety of orthodontic problems usually within 1-2 years.

Invisalign

If you aren’t entirely sure whether you like the thought of wearing fixed braces permanently for 1-2 years, then another form of invisible braces Manchester is Invisalign. Unlike most other brace systems, including the lingual variety, Invisalign don’t straighten teeth by means of a tensioner at all. Instead the Invisalign system utilises a series of clear plastic trays, known as aligners which are placed over the teeth (rather like a gum shield). Each one is is made from a medical grade polymer similar to the material that contact lenses are made from. The idea is that each aligner is made to fit exactly over your teeth at a specific stage of your orthodontic journey. Every 2-3 weeks the patient takes the old aligner off and changes it for the subsequent one in the series. This carries on until they’ve reached the required number of aligners to reveal straighter teeth. In addition Invisalign aligners are supposed to be worn for 20-22 hours a day and are designed to be removed when eating and brushing the teeth. Ultimately Invisalign are about as invisible as braces get and what’s more, because they’re a longer-term treatment just like lingual braces, they can solve a wide variety of orthodontic problems.

So yes, although there are a multitude of clear braces, Manchester residents looking for 100% discretion guaranteed will be pleased to know that in Lingual Braces and Invisalign, they have two of the best forms of invisible braces Manchester that money can buy.

Orthodontic Treatments – Manchester Clear Braces and More

 Modern orthodontic treatments go way beyond those metallic ‘train track’ style braces that we knew as children and now include a wide range of Manchester clear braces specially made for adults. Many are discreet and are ideal for people who don’t want others to know that they’re wearing them. These include a variety of clear fixed braces Manchester. Alternatively, other braces such as Invisalign braces Manchester are not only discreet but are designed to be fully removable. Let’s take a closer look…

Firstly clear fixed braces

These types of orthodontic treatments come in many guises and are usually identified by their ceramic porcelain brackets and tooth coloured wiring. They can be used to treat a variety of dental problems such as crooked or twisted teeth, flared teeth, over-bites, tooth over crowding and uneven tooth spacing. They can either be worn as conventional braces (eg, attached to the front of the teeth using a discreet bracket and wiring system) or worn at the back of the teeth (as in the case of lingual braces). Clear fixed braces Manchester such as Six Month Smiles and C-fast can also be used as a fast or accelerated treatment to quickly achieve a better aesthetic look. Ultimately there are a number of brace systems that fall into this category and a skilled orthodontist will select the right type of brace based upon your needs, requirements, and degree of dental treatment needed.

Invisalign braces

When it comes to Manchester clear braces, Invisalign Braces Manchester are far removed from the bracket and wiring style systems we all associate with orthodontic treatment. Fashioned from  light acrylic they’re designed to slip over the teeth and are worn just like you would a gum shield. Also, unlike clear fixed braces where the patient is fitted with the one brace for the duration, Invisalign treatment involves a whole series of aligners or trays as they’re commonly referred to. Each tray is specially designed to move your teeth into a certain position before the next one in the sequence is fitted. The trays are changed every two weeks and there can be as many as 48 or as few as 12 depending upon the degree of treatment needed.

Invisalign braces are designed to be removed when eating, drinking, and cleaning teeth and placed back into position for the remainder of the day. However for Invisalign to work they really need to be in place for a minimum of 22 hours per day.

As you can imagine, each aligner has to be individually made based on the patients needs and requirements, and as a result they are more expensive than other forms of orthodontic treatment. However, being fully removable, and as the name suggests virtually invisible, they don’t impinge upon your life thus allowing users to carry on as normal.

So which is best – Clear fixed braces Manchester or Invisalign?

The reality is that they all do a great job of straightening the teeth – and in a discreet way. So it all boils down to preference, the type of dental treatment you require, your needs, and of course your budget. At Church Road Dental and Cosmetics our highly experienced orthodontics team are here to help, so if you’re considering Manchester clear braces and can’t make up your mind between clear fixed braces Manchester and Invisalign braces Manchester then book yourself a consultation with Dr Shi Karim and the team.

inman aligner uk

Inman Aligner Braces – What Are They And How Do They Work?

If you’re looking for cheap clear braces Manchester to improve your smile, then depending upon your circumstances, your dentist might recommend Inman Aligner braces. As far as Manchester clear braces go, the Inman Aligner is one of the most popular forms of brace system; but what exactly is it and how does it work? Let’s take a closer look.

Unlike many clear or non-clear brace systems the Inman Aligner can be easily detached from the teeth. This means that it can be removed for brushing and eating so it’s arguably more hygienic in this respect. Like other orthodontic treatments, it’s designed to be worn in the mouth where continual but gentle force is applied to gradually coax the teeth back into position. The Inman aligner is perfect as a stand alone treatment for many dental problems but can also be used prior to additional dental cosmetic treatments including the fitting of porcelain veneers, cosmetic bonding, and teeth whitening.

So how do Inman Aligner Braces Work?

These innovative braces differ from the more conventional bracket and wiring style of cheap clear braces in that they operate using bows and springs. The aligner consists of an incredibly durable nickel titanium coil spring that powers two separate aligner bows. The spring pushes the inner bow forwards while pushing the outer bow backwards, resulting in a gentle force that is maintained throughout a very large movement range. This is why the Inman aligner works quickly. In most cases treatments are completed within 6-18 weeks.

For the best results this style of brace needs to be worn for at least twenty hours per day and regular checks are required every two to three weeks to keep an eye on progress.

When are Inman aligners not the best choice?

As with all types of fast-fix or accelerated Manchester clear braces, the Inman aligner isn’t designed to work on more problematic or complex dental cases. In this instance your orthodontist is more likely to recommend longer term orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign or conventional orthodontic treatments. They’re also not designed for those people who are looking for a holistic approach to teeth straightening such as root alignment too. Instead what Inman aligner braces do best is offer an alternative and speedy way to straighten the upper and lower teeth that show when you smile. For this they’re the perfect solution.

To find out more about the Inman aligner or any other form of cheap clear braces Manchester then come and talk to Church Road Dental and Cosmetics. Shi Karim and the team have been helping people restore their smiles for many years, with great results. For this reason we have the skills and the experience to help you too. Why not book yourself a free, no-obligation consultation with our orthodontic team on 0161 660 1218 or visit our website at www.clearbracesmanchester.co.uk and let us show you exactly what we can do.

lingual braces before and after

Invisible Braces – A Discreet Way to Get Orthodontic Treatment

When we think about orthodontic treatment to straighten teeth, invisible braces probably aren’t the first thing that springs to mind. Indeed procedures such as Invisalign treatment and lingual braces before and after, are a long way from the metallic smile that many conventional brace wearers used to have to endure. For this reason more and more adults are now seeking teeth straightening treatments such as these; but what other benefits do invisible or clear brace treatments have?

A wider number of choices

Nowadays when a patient needs orthodontic treatments they have a great deal of choice available. Not only does this include discreet or invisible brace systems such as those listed above, but also fast or accelerated brace systems, removable brace systems, and aligner style systems that even do away with the bracket and wiring aspect altogether. When a patient meets with an orthodontist for the first time, they’ll be give a thorough oral examination. Based on the patient’s dental needs and their personal needs the dentist will choose a brace system to fit that exacting criteria.

Healthier options

One of the long standing problems with conventional metal bracket and wiring braces is that because they’re permanently fixed to the mouth for the duration of the treatment (this can be anything up to 3 years) food particles and debris can get lodged in between the tiny gaps in the brace. This can sometimes be difficult to access when brushing, and although you can floss while wearing braces, it isn’t easy. On some occasions conventional brace wearers are prone to something known as de-calcification. This is where the acids contained in foods robs the teeth of calcium, causing white scars. This in turn can lead to cavities.

Conversely Invisalign treatments and to a certain extent lingual braces, make it easier to brush and floss. Invisalign for example is a non-fixed aligner, designed to be removed when eating and brushing teeth, while lingual braces fit the back of the teeth and therefore access for a toothbrush is far simpler. In fact if you ever get to see lingual braces before and after pictures, you’ll notice that de-calcification isn’t normally an issue.

Access to speedier treatments

Clear or invisible braces come in a wide variety of guises and something we touched on earlier was fast or accelerated treatments. Metal style brace systems tend to be permanently fixed, long-term procedures with the patient having to wear then 24 hours a day for anything up to 3 years. Conversely if a patient has mild dental problems such as gapped or flared teeth, or slight overcrowding and is only really concerned with the aesthetics of their smile, then they might want to opt for fast or accelerated treatments such as C Fast, Six Month Smiles, or the Inman Aligner. These systems usually concentrate their efforts on straightening the front upper and lower teeth that can be seen when you smile, and for this reason treatment can take as little as 2-3 months.

As you can see as well as being discreet, invisible braces such as Invisalign treatment and Lingual braces before and after have a wide variety of other benefits. If you’re not happy with your smile and would like to speak to us about discreet orthodontic treatment then book yourself a free, no-obligation consultation with Shi Karim and the team.

Invisalign Manchester - What Is It And How Does It Work

Invisalign Manchester – What Is It And How Does It Work?

As far as orthodontic Manchester procedures go, one treatment that’s about as far removed from traditional metallic, bracket-and-wiring style braces as is possible is Invisalign. Manchester patients who have previously used this treatment tell us that it’s taken away the daunting prospect of wearing braces as an adult; but what exactly is Invisalign and how does it work?

When you visit our smiles dental Manchester clinic here at Church Road Dental for orthodontic treatment you might be surprised when you see Invisalign for the first time and understand how it works. Rather than a series of brackets and wires which are attached directly to the teeth to gently push or pull teeth back into position, Invisalign uses a series of trays or aligners. These aligners are placed directly over the teeth and worn like a gum shield. Each aligner is worn for approximately two weeks and after this time it’s changed for a new one. This has several advantages as follows.

Improved cleanliness

Because Invisalign aligners are designed to be easily removed they can be taken out when eating and brushing, Often with other non-removable orthodontic Manchester treatment the problem lies in the fact that  food debris can easily get lodged in between the brackets and wiring after eating. This makes is difficult to brush teeth properly. As a result some people who wear this style of brace system can become susceptible to tooth decay.

Not reliant on the dentist

Under normal circumstances a patent would visit the dentist every few weeks to have their braces adjusted. This may involve replacing rubber bands or wiring to maintain the correct amount of tension on the teeth. With Invisalign, Manchester patients would simply fit the new aligner themselves. As a result they should only need to visit their dentist every six weeks or so, to enable the dentist to check progress.

It’s discreet

When you visit a smiles dental Manchester clinic there are many discreet orthodontic treatments available for adults but none more so than Invisalign. Even those made of ceramic and tooth coloured wiring can be seen up close when you smile. Conversely, Invisalign aligners are made using a clear, lightweight thermoplastic material which is virtually invisible when placed over the teeth. As a result wearers can happily go about their daily business and no one need know they’re wearing it.

Treats the majority of orthodontic problems

Other aligners such as the Inman aligner are known as fast, or accelerated brace systems. For this reason there are many issues that they can’t treat. On the contrary, Invisalign aligners have the ability to treat a whole gamut of orthodontic problems including

  • Over/under bites
  • Tooth root straightening
  • Problematic tooth overcrowding
  • Teeth gapping

and many more issues besides…. In fact, if you have an orthodontic problem, there’s a strong chance that it can be corrected using Invisalign

If you’re in need of orthodontic Manchester treatment but don’t want to wear traditional bracket and wire style braces, then you might want to consider Invisalign Manchester. Visit our smiles dental Manchester clinic at Church Road Dental and Cosmetics to book a free, no-obligation consultation.

Clear Fixed Braces Manchester – How Do They Work?

Clear Fixed Braces Manchester – How Do They Work?

When we think of orthodontic treatment it usually conjures up visions of heavy metallic style brace systems that we remember as children. Clear fixed braces Manchester are far removed from this and instead offer adults the chance to wear discreet braces such as Invisalign braces Manchester to correct problematic teeth. In fact clear braces offers Manchester patients the chance to fix a wide variety of tooth related problems while the wearer goes about their normal daily life; but how do they work?

In essence all types of braces, whether they’re Inman Aligners, Invisalign, or lingual, are designed to do the same job and that’s to straighten teeth by applying gentle and sustained force. It’s how this is achieved which varies. For example, aligner type braces such as Invisalign braces in Manchester, do away with the conventional bracket and wiring style fixings altogether in favour of a series of removable clear plastic trays that are worn on the teeth just like a gum shield. Each tray (aligner) varies from its predecessor and as one tray is replaced (usually every two weeks), it gently coaxes the teeth into a particular position so that the next aligner can continue the process. Over a period of 12-18 months the desired results are normally achieved.

Unlike other forms of clear fixed braces in Manchester lingual braces attach to the back of the teeth and as a result any wiring won’t be visible when the wearer speaks or smiles. Like most forms of orthodontic treatment they take some getting used to but are ideal for those who really don’t want people to know that they’re wearing braces.

Accelerated vs long-term treatments

One of the factors that puts many people off from orthodontic treatments is that it’s considered a long-term procedure (usually anywhere between 9 months and 2 years). However patients can also have what are known as accelerated treatments. Using treatments such as C- Fast and Secret Smile, accelerated clear braces offers Manchester patients the chance to have straighter teeth in 2-6 months There is however a trade off. Because of the length of time involved, most accelerated treatments only correct the visible upper and lower teeth that are seen when a person smiles. As a result they don’t correct more complex matters such as over and under bite and tooth root alignment which long-term orthodontic treatments can. For this reason accelerated orthodontic treatments aren’t for everyone. However for those patients that prefer to focus purely on the aesthetics of their smile, then accelerated systems are the perfect option.

In essence clear braces offers Manchester patients the chance to get their teeth straightened   by way of a series of discreet treatments. Whether that’s removable systems such as invisalign braces Manchester or other forms of clear fixed braces, Manchester patients can rest assured that they’re in safe hands when they pay a visit to Church Road Dental.

Clear Braces How Modern Orthodontic Manchester Treatments have improved

How Modern Orthodontic Manchester Treatments have improved

In years gone by the only real form of orthodontic Manchester treatment was those heavy metallic ‘train track’ style braces that many children wore throughout their school years. Now however our smiles dental Manchester clinic offers a whole host of orthodontic treatments that are not only for adults, but are also incredibly discreet. In fact treatments such as Invisalign braces Manchester are about as far away from traditional metal style braces that you can get. So what’s changed.

Advanced technology

Over the past decade or so dental technology has come on in leaps and bounds. Not just with innovations such as dental implants, but for orthodontic treatments as well. Materials are now more lightweight than ever, meaning that braces are more comfortable. Computerised design means that aligners such as those needed for orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign, can be individually made with pinpoint accuracy, and bracket and wire braces can be made smaller so that they’re more discreet than ever before. This means that anyone needing orthodontic Manchester treatments are likely to find it way more appealing than they may have done in childhood.

More self conscious about body image

Fuelled by the celebrities of our time who always seem to be in the public eye, people nowadays appear to be more self conscious about body image and this includes teeth. Although orthodontic treatments such as braces have been around for decades, no adult really wants to be seen or noticed wearing them. However advances in technology means that treatments such as clear braces or Invisalign braces in Manchester are not only very discreet, but are a world away from the traditional bracket and wire type braces that we’ve come to know. This means that for the first time adults can carry out their normal daily lives without feeling conscious of the fact that they are wearing noticeable braces.

Faster treatment time

In a world of quick fix solutions, orthodontic treatments such as braces stood out for taking anything up to 3 years to complete. Over the past few years however accelerated brace systems such as C-Fast, Secret Smile, and Six Month Smiles have come onto the market. Now instead of taking years, those people who were purely focused on the aesthetics of their smile rather than underlying corrective measures, were able to have their visible upper and lower teeth straightened in as little as two or three months. This means that now, brace systems particularly the accelerated clear brace variety, have become a viable option for many people. As such the percentage of adults opting for orthodontic Manchester treatment is greater now than ever before.

Whether you’re opting for Invisalign braces Manchester or any other type of clear fixed brace systems then we can help. Our experienced team led by Shi Karim have the skills to bring back your perfect smile. Whether you’re after a quick aesthetic fix, or a long term solution to crooked, flared, or gapped teeth then we believe that smiles dental Manchester doesn’t get any better than this.
