Consultant Specialist Orthodontist with over 25 years' experience
When you think of teeth straightening Marylebone, then we believe it should be synonymous with Orthodontist London as we have an extensive range of treatments available to address every alignment issue. Contrary to popular belief, teeth straightening Marylebone can be discreet, convenient and comfortable. When you think of braces, you may imagine visible metal braces; but, here at Orthodontist London, we have so many more options which use the latest technology to ensure that they are as comfortable and discreet as possible.
Our specialist orthodontist, Mary Lo, will be able to explore the treatment options with you during an initial consultation; she will also examine your mouth thoroughly to ascertain which treatment options would suit your specific needs. You can then discuss these options and ask all the questions you need to be able to make an informed decision about the right treatment plan for you.
What treatments are offered?
We have a vast range of treatment options; some of our most popular treatments include Invisalign, Incognito, or self-ligating Damon braces.
Damon braces
If you do require fixed metal braces, Damon braces have a patented technology which allows the brackets to slide on the wires. This enables them to move freely as your teeth move and should therefore be very comfortable for you as your teeth won’t be restricted. Fixed metal braces have certainly moved on a long way and offer effective treatment for more complex alignment needs. Damon is just one of the cutting-edge treatments we have.
Incognito
If you are concerned about having visible braces, Incognito may be a suitable option for you instead. Incognito has wires and brackets, but these are fixed to the back of your teeth, so nobody will be able to see them. Incognito will give you the confidence to continue smiling and talking with carefree abandon without anybody being able to see that you have an appliance in your mouth. It should also be more comfortable than traditional ‘train tracks’ as your lips won’t be in contact with the brackets, which can sometimes cause irritation. If you fancy trying a treatment that is invisible, this could be the one for you.
Invisalign
For mild to moderate alignment issues such as crowded or gapped teeth, overbites, underbites or crossbites, Invisalign is an aligner system that can treat these issues in approximately 6 to 18 months. The aligners may be removed daily for a couple of hours, so you won’t need to eat with them in your mouth and you can take them out when you need to brush your teeth. The aligners push against the teeth to move them and you will simply need to change the aligners every couple of weeks and have a checkup with us every 6 weeks. As the name Invisalign suggests, the aligners should be virtually invisible. This is because they are made of a durable plastic that is see-through, so only your pearly whites should be on display!
If you would like to know more about the treatment options and how you could get a beautiful smile that functions properly, come and see us at Orthodontist London. Our friendly team is ready to greet you and to help you achieve a great smile that you can be proud of. After all, when it comes to teeth straightening, where else would you want to go.
