As more people begin to realise the true value of a beautiful smile, so the demand for adult orthodontics is growing.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, in terms of treatment for teenagers, the criteria for braces on the NHS is very strict, and waiting lists are very long. The teenage years can be a sensitive time and young people can be very image-conscious, so at our North London clinic we also offer options for those who don\u2019t qualify for NHS orthodontics, as well as those who do but either don\u2019t want to wear metal braces or would like to start their treatment as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever your age, there are more benefits to teeth straightening than just a beautiful smile. Improperly aligned teeth are harder to keep clean, which can increase your risk of dental decay or gum disease developing.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in straightening your teeth with braces or aligners, the options at Aura Dental in North London include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Six Month Smiles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These barely-visible <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auradentallondon.co.uk\/treatments.html\">cosmetic braces<\/a> are designed for rapid mild to moderate correction of issues affecting the teeth that show when you smile. Comprising clear and tooth-coloured parts, the average treatment time is just half a year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inman Aligner<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This single aligner is excellent for treating cases of adult relapse, as well as for correcting protruding front teeth, helping to protect them from accidental damage. It\u2019s the fastest orthodontic treatment at Aura Dental in North London, acting in between six and 18 weeks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invisalign<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A popular system of clear aligners, Invisalign can be used to correct a wide range of concerns.
