A lot of people are unhappy or embarrassed about gaps they may have between their teeth. Theses gaps could be very small or very large. Spaces between teeth can be closed or filled by different orthodontic methods.

Clear braces are a very popular orthodontic and cosmetic dentistry treatment.  If you don’t want to wear metal braces you don’t have to!  Some clear braces can realign your teeth in a matter of weeks! But some cases may take longer as each case is different.  Your orthodontist will be able to advise you in this.

There have been in excess of 10,000 successful orthodontic procedures world wide in the past eight years using a clear brace method.  They are removable so you can take them out to eat and for social occasions. When they are in the mouth they are hardly evident, as the mouth only takes a few days to become accustomed to their presence.

Cosmetic dentists or orthodontist have to have special training in the art of clear brace treatment. It is important to visit a cosmetic dentist or orthodontist who is experienced in this type of work and knows what you want.  It is important to see similar cases to your own so that you have a good idea of the end result.

Types of clear braces available are: 

v     Inman Aligner – removable invisible braces – a quick way of straightening front teeth

v     Clearstep – invisible braces – will only move teeth a little – good for mild crowding

 Some good reasons why a clear brace may be ideal for you:

v     They are clear (invisible)

v     They are removable and not fixed

v     They are cheaper than conventional braces!

v     They are very quick at correcting simple crowding

v     Safe and cost effective

After your teeth are straightened you have to wear a fixed or removable retainer for life.

The cost of clear braces starts at around £1350 for either the upper arch or the lower arch.  The orthodontist who specialises in clear braces or Inman Aligners will be able to advise you further.
