Protecting the future of your teeth with braces in St John´s Wood

Looking after our teeth is a very important part of modern life, but even if we have the best dental hygiene routine in the world and visit our dentist regularly, our teeth can become out of alignment. This can be genetic or due to the way our adult teeth erupt when we are growing up.

Many of us may have had braces growing up to correct the alignment of our teeth but sometimes teeth can shift back to their former crooked, crowded or gappy positions. This isn’t something you need to put up with, with modern teeth straightening treatments that cater to adults as well as children.

Another type of braces in St John´s Wood is Invisalign aligners. These are removable clear plastic trays that you change every 2 weeks. Each set of trays are slightly different in shape, gradually moving your teeth into a more desirable position. This treatment benefits from being completely removable, making it much easier when it comes to mealtimes and keeping on top of your dental hygiene. These braces are also much more comfortable and almost completely invisible, making them much more practical.

The benefits of having straight teeth

There are many health reasons why having straight teeth is important. Firstly, straight teeth that meet properly in the middle wear more evenly, and because the pressure when you chew is also distributed evenly, there is less risk of chipping and other damage to your teeth.

Straight teeth are also easier to clean, making your dental hygiene routine much more efficient and effective. There are more reasons than ever to choose braces, so book an appointment with Aura Dental to explore your options.
