We believe in the least invasive techniques to create beautiful smiles. If you have crooked teeth, overlapping teeth or teeth that are out of alignment then they SHOULD NOT be cut down for veneers or crowns. This is destructive and will cause harm in the longer term. Due to the advances of cosmetic dentistry, teeth can now be straightened discreetly and quickly to enhance your smile and improve oral hygiene. One of the most popular techniques we use is the lingual brace, which is the truly invisible brace as it sits on the inside of the teeth. Our case study highlights a wonderful result achieved with a lingual brace to straighten crooked lower front teeth.
Crooked lower teeth making hygiene difficult.
THE TREATMENT
The treatment involved placing a hidden lingual brace on 10 teeth. The key was the planning prior to any treatment and using a diagnostic set up. This is vital in cases like these as we are able to see a final potential end result before starting treatment. Once we are happy with the set up, treatment can commence. The treatment involved using STB lingual braces and was completed by Dr Nissit Patel in a matter of months. The benefits of treatment are, of course, straight teeth but also improved oral hygiene. The straighter the teeth, the easier they are to clean and maintain.
RETENTION
As can be seen from the photograph, the teeth are being held by a fixed wire retainer. This is vital as relapse is very common if the teeth are not retained and all the good work will be undone.
MAINTENANCE
It is important that you continue to see the dentist and hygienist after the treatment to maintain the excellent results. After all, you only have one set of teeth and they need to last for life!
