Let our braces in Windsor get your smile in shape

Back on the right trackbraces-in-windsor

At Old Windsor, our practitioners and staff recognise the challenges and pressures that our patients have been under the past year and understand that having treatments such as braces in Windsor has been difficult to easily attain. This has left a lot of people needing some dental TLC – which we are more than willing to provide to anyone who feels they need it.

Why should I get braces in Windsor?

Having teeth that are crooked or visibly out of place can not only take a toll on your self-esteem and have social implications, but it also leaves you far more susceptible to a broad range of detrimental health effects – both dentally and elsewhere throughout your body.

This is why we strongly urge that anyone who feels their dental alignment could do with a push in the right direction should reach out to our approachable and understanding practitioners today and we’ll book you in for a consultation.

This consultation will give us a chance to both determine how much treatment you’ll need and if any preliminary treatments (such as those carried out by our dental hygienist to treat gum disease) will be necessary beforehand.

Another benefit of these consultations is that they allow our practices to detail the many different varieties of braces in Windsor that we offer – which can often surprise patient’s who were unaware of the advancements that orthodontics has made over the last few decades and the effective, cosmetic treatments that are now easily assessable.

What different types of braces do you offer?

Traditional braces – which use metallic connecting wire and fixed brackets that are bonded to every individual tooth. These are still one of the most popular and widely sought out forms of orthodontics which we provide here at Old Windsor.

However, they are just one branch of a far larger tree which includes various cosmetic-orthodontic treatment which aims to align a patient teeth without impacting on how they look in the process.

One such cosmetic orthodontic treatment that we regularly provide to patients at Old Windsor is the Invisalign retainer system. Unlike traditional braces, the Invisalign method does not need anything to be attached or bonded to the patient’s teeth throughout any stage of the alignment process, as everything is carried out by a series of removable plastic retainers.

These retainers – which are made from a patented dental plastic called SmartTrack – are all custom made for each patient, and include carefully positioned pressure points inside its structure that gradually and gently apply pressure to specific out-of-place teeth.

One of the main attractions of the Invisalign method is that – because the retainers are incredibly thin and transparent – when worn they are almost impossible to detect. This means that patients can undergo treatment discreetly, without alerting any attention to themselves in the process.

Another unique appeal of Invisalign is that the retainer can be periodically taken out whenever the patient wishes – such as for meals or to pose for a picture – which is a freedom that very few other orthodontic treatments offer.

Anyone who’s keen to find out more about Invisalign or any of the other forms of discrete-orthodontics we provide here at Old Windsor should take action and contact us today so we can begin setting your smile on the straight-and-narrow.
