In an ideal world, we would all have teeth that\nare perfectly straight, strong and healthy, meaning that we would never need to\ngo for dental treatment. Sadly however, this is not the world we live in, and\nbraces are often necessary for us to have for a variety of reasons. Braces are\noften used as a corrective treatment, to close gaps between teeth and to\nstraighten crooked or protruding teeth. Many of us, who may have had or heard\nabout braces in the past probably know already that this is the purpose of braces.\nHowever, what is lesser known are the different types of effective, subtle and\navailable braces in St\nJohn\u2019s Wood<\/a>. Some examples of the braces in St\nJohn\u2019s Wood<\/strong> are Invisalign, Damon and lingual braces. In this\narticle we\u2019ll take a look at and examine these different types of braces, and\nhopefully provide the information needed so that you can make an informed\ndecision about whether any one of these types of braces in St\nJohn\u2019s Wood<\/strong> are right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign has become a very popular method of\nstraightening teeth in recent times. The way that this treatment works is by\nproviding you with a set of clear plastic aligners that fit snugly over your\nteeth. Most find these aligners to be easy to put on and remove, allowing you\nto change the aligner you are wearing easily as a part of the treatment, and\nalso allowing you to remove the aligners for when you\u2019re eating or chewing etc.\nThey are also nearly invisible in most cases, which many find to be an\nappealing draw to them, as it means that other people can not tell that\npatients are wearing anything over their teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lingual braces<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, as with Invisalign, lingual braces are\nalso virtually invisible. They work much like regular braces to straighten\nteeth, however they are fitted to the inside of the teeth rather than the front\nsurface, making it very difficult to see them. Lingual braces work by having a\nstrong arch wire attached to them. As the braces (and thus the wire) is being\nattached to unstraightened teeth, the wire will gradually lose its shape.\nHowever, by going back to your dentist who fitted the lingual braces, you can\nget the wire constantly straightened, which allows the braces to slowly pull\nyour teeth to the desired position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damon braces are more akin to traditional braces\nin terms of appearance, however they differ by using a slide mechanism to\nstraighten teeth, which moves naturally as they realign. Many people have\nenjoyed the traditional benefits of Damon treatment, considering that it is a\ntreatment with a low amount of discomfort associated with it and that it is\nalso comfortable, with a relatively low amount of friction occuring on the\nteeth. Keeping friction to a minimum is beneficial, as it avoids the teeth\ndeteriorating or being eroded. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
