The long and sometimes\ninvasive route of getting dental implants is not the only solution to obtaining\na beautifully straight smile in adulthood. Even though it may feel that the\ntime for orthodontic treatment has passed, it really isn\u2019t too late to fix your\nteeth. With Invisalign in St.\nJohn\u2019s Wood<\/a>, we have a much faster and far more comfortable option\nto fixing crooked teeth or malocclusion (having problems with a bad bite) –\nwith a set of clear\naligners that will straighten your teeth far more quickly than traditional\nbraces and possibly in less time than it would take to get implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adults in the workplace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If someone is trying\nto give a presentation to their colleagues with a full set of metal braces\nglinting in their mouth, it can be difficult to command authority or even be\ntaken seriously. One cannot simply live with crooked teeth in a professional\nenvironment; psychologists have determined that people with straight teeth are\noften perceived by others to have more success professionally as well as in\ntheir love life. People with straighter teeth are thought to be more\napproachable and are considered to have better hygiene as well. These are of\ncourse unconscious perceptions made in an image-based society but they still\naffect how people will regard you on an all-important first impression. So dentistry came up with a solution in recent\nyears and with Invisalign in St. John\u2019s Wood<\/strong>, we\nimplement these clear aligners to assist many adults who are looking to\nstraighten their teeth with discretion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teens are a good candidate for braces because their bones are still\ngrowing and moving but the bones of adults have finished this process and are\nfixed in place. Therefore, in severe cases of extra teeth, overcrowding and\nmalocclusions surgery may be required but a clear aligner will still be able to\nstraighten crooked teeth and some cases of overcrowding or wide spacing, this\ncan be achieved in as little as 6 months. Not only is the fast treatment time\nappealing but a big draw for many adults is that the treatment is invisible; Invisalign in St. John\u2019s Wood<\/strong> fits over the teeth and goes\nunnoticed by those around you, they are completely removable which allows you\nto eat anything you like and still be able to clean them properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clear aligners<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will take a hi-tech 3D digital scan of the mouth which can be immediately seen on a computer screen. This means that patients don\u2019t have to deal with a viscous goo to create a mold of their teeth. The new technology is very accurate so that personal aligners can be made for you based on the computer\u2019s prediction on how your teeth will shift over time. A full set of aligners will be created for your treatment so that you can change them at home or work without having to visit the dentist constantly. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
