Is your simile missing out on all that braces in Windsor could do?

Keeping your smile healthy

Here at Old Windsor, our primary concern is keeping the oral health of each of our patients to a standard that means that they need not be worried about their dental wellbeing. We understand the strain that many of us are under because of Covid:19, and we recognise the importance of keeping our patients both happy and healthy. Across the country, there are literally countless people out there who are living each day with badly aligned or crooked teeth. With the obvious cosmetic implications of this to one side, these people are often unbeknownst leaving themselves at a far higher risk of developing dental problems and infections. This is why anyone who has crooked teeth ought to speak to our trusted orthodontists about braces in Windsor and begin their unique journey towards setting things straight.

Many people who could be potentially benefiting from braces in Windsor do not actually realise the benefits that seeking out treatment could bring them, both socially and orally. As mentioned, people who have poorly aligned teeth are at a greater risk of contracting infections and gum problems such as periodontal disease. This is because the non-uniform structure of their teeth means that there are far more difficult to reach spaces and pockets between crooked teeth. If food remnants or bacteria form within these pockets and are not removed through regular brushing, then they will become plaque or tartar. If this plaque is not removed then it could potentially develop into gum disease as the plaque spreads to the gums and causes an infection. This can result in extensive treatment being needed to restore your gums to full health and eradicate any signs of gum disease. Another benefit to having your teeth orthodontically realigned to make them straighter is that it can have a massively positive effect on how a person looks. Studies have found that people who have straight, healthy-looking teeth are typically considered to be more trustworthy, attractive and confident. By simply seeking out orthodontic alignment from us here at Old Windsor patients can potentially open up countless new doors of opportunity in their futures, simply through the power of their smile.

What types of braces are available?

One aspect of orthodontics which may dissuade people from seeking out treatment is a lack of understanding about the options which are available. Many people today still believe that their options for braces are purely limited to conventional metallic braces. While these are still widely used, there is also a range of cosmetic alternative methods of correcting badly aligned teeth which have little to no impact on how a patient looks during treatment. These ‘cosmetic orthodontics’ have fast become some of the most requested types of treatment here at Old Windsor, and we even offer treatment such as the Invisalign method which can align a patient’s teeth – without the need for anything to be attached to their teeth at all. Anyone who feels their smile and oral health could benefit from orthodontic alignment should make an appointment or speak over the phone to one of our friendly, approachable and professional orthodontic specialists here at Old Windsor so we can help get your oral health back on track.
