Braces and Clear Aligners

Unlock Your Perfect Smile with Braces and Clear Aligners

A perfect smile is more than just an aesthetic goal – it’s a confidence booster and a crucial aspect of oral health.

At Beyond Dental Clinic, we specialise in helping you achieve that perfect smile with braces and clear aligners. These orthodontic treatments are designed to straighten your teeth, correct bite issues, and enhance your overall dental health.

Conventional Braces

Conventional braces are the most traditional type of orthodontic treatment. They consist of metal brackets and wires that are attached to the teeth using a special adhesive. The wires are adjusted periodically to gradually move the teeth into their desired positions. Despite their classic design, modern braces are sleeker and more comfortable than ever before.

Conventional braces are effective for treating a wide range of orthodontic issues, including crowding, spacing, and bite problems.

Self-Ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces are a variation of conventional braces that use a special mechanism to hold the wires in place. This mechanism eliminates the need for elastic bands, making them more comfortable and easier to maintain.

Self-ligating braces are ideal for patients who want a more discreet appearance without sacrificing effectiveness. Moreover, those who opt for self-ligating braces may find themselves enjoying the added benefits of brief orthodontist visits, simpler oral hygiene routines, and a more pleasant overall experience.

Clear Aligners

For those seeking a discreet and convenient orthodontic option, clear aligners offer a virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth. Clear aligners work by applying gentle pressure to the teeth to gradually move them into their desired positions.

The aligners are designed to fit your teeth precisely, ensuring that they are comfortable and effective. Clear aligners are removable, making it easy to eat, drink, and brush your teeth normally.

About Braces and Clear Aligners

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How long does orthodontic treatment typically take?

The duration of treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case. On average, braces treatment takes 18-24 months, while clear aligners can take 12-18 months. Our orthodontists will provide a more accurate timeline during your consultation.

Are braces or clear aligners painful?

Braces can cause some discomfort, especially after adjustments. However, this discomfort is usually temporary and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Clear aligners tend to cause less discomfort since they don’t involve metal brackets or wires.

How often do I need to visit the clinic?

For braces, you will need to visit the clinic every 4-6 weeks for adjustments. With clear aligners, follow-up visits are typically every 6-8 weeks to ensure your treatment is progressing as planned.

Can adults get braces or clear aligners?

Yes, orthodontic treatment is not limited to children and teenagers. Many adults opt for braces or clear aligners to improve their smile and oral health. At Beyond Dental Clinic, we provide orthodontic solutions for patients of all ages.
