\"InvisalignDiscreet orthodontics<\/strong><\/p>\n

At Aura, a large portion of the procedures offered centre around the installation of dental aligners and discreet orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign in St John\u2019s Wood<\/a>. Treatments of this nature have grown greatly in their popularity over recent years, and are particularly successful with teenagers and young adults who opt for them rather than typical orthodontic methods such as conventional fused \u2018train-track\u2019 braces. Treatments such as Invisalign allow them to undergo essential dental realignment, without attracting any unwanted attention or scrutiny from peers. The basis of Invisalign in St John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> is to replace fused braces with a removable non-invasive retainer. The process of installing an Invisalign mouthpiece consists initially of a mould being created of a patient’s mouth, in the dentist’s office. This mould is created using a patented SmartTrack plastic that is designed to be both malleable and firm. Once the mould is created, it can then be taken home and worn by the patient. Whilst being worn, the retainer gradually aligns the patient\u2019s teeth to the specifications set out through consultations between themselves and a practitioner of their choosing. Treatment with Invisalign typically lasts up to twelve months, however due to the removable nature of the treatment, it can be worn at a time that is convenient to the patient – such as when sleeping. Another benefit of Invisalign treatment is that when the retainer is worn, it is practically undetectable and as such, allows patients to go through treatment without worrying about their external appearance.<\/p>\n

Behind the magic<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another form of alignment treatment similarly offered at Aura Dental, is the installation of Lingual braces. Unlike Invisalign in St John\u2019s Wood<\/strong>, they are fused to the patient\u2019s teeth – a resemblance to conventional \u2018train-track\u2019 braces. Lingual braces, however, are fused to the backs of a patient’s mouth – and as such, are virtually invisible from the front. Treatment of this sort is again favoured by young adults and teenagers as it allows patients to undergo essential alignment without attracting any unwanted attention from their peers or colleagues and after treatment has been completed, they find they have the smile they have always dreamed of.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
