Straight teeth and a transformed smile may no longer need to come from a mouth full of unattractive metal braces.In Bournemouth, teeth straightening can be achieved with invisible braces – an appealing and barely noticeable alternative to traditional braces.

Invisible braces and traditional wire braces share the same dental principle. They both employ controlled pressure to gradually straighten your teeth. During each stage of the treatment, different teeth are affected by different forces applied on them.

At Queens Park Dental Team we use In-Line invisible braces for adults who wish to fix widely spaced, crooked or misaligned teeth, as well as moderate overbites.

In-Line invisible braces are a set of clear, removable aligners that you change every four to six weeks during the course of your treatment.Clear aligners are custom-made with the aid of three-dimensional technology and your teeth impressions taken by your dentists. They are provided in arrays. The number of aligners will depend on your particular dental problem.

In-Line braces are very comfortable, because they fit snugly over your teeth and gums and can be removed for eating and for cleaning your teeth.

Invisible braces were initially designed for adults because the removable clear trays need to be worn at least 22 hours a day and should not be forgotten or lost.

However, younger teenagers looking for teeth straightening in Bournemouth can also use them. In-Line invisible braces are not recommended for children as they have not developed their adult teeth completely.

Clear aligners require responsibility,motivation and self-discipline to be worn consistently, as opposed to traditional metal braces, which are fixed permanently to your teeth. Lost clear aligners may result in treatment delay and additional replacement costs.

If you decide to straighten your teeth with invisible braces at Queens Park Dental Team, you’ll have an initial consultation with one of our dentists to take precise impressions of your teeth.The cost of invisible braces is not prohibitive but depends on several factors such as the duration of the treatment, the state of your teeth and any restorative work needed before or during the treatment.
