What are orthodontics in Berkshire?

Orthodontics are a type of dentistry that essentially aims to amend misalignment of the teeth. This could be front protrusion of the teeth, (also commonly referred to as an overbite), an underbite or it could be to address crowding of the teeth. Traditionally within the field of orthodontics conventional metal braces have been used to rectify some of the most serious dental cases. But despite conventional metal braces being deemed as extremely effective however, many dental clinics within the modern field of dentistry are now looking to answer the demand for more discreet forms of orthodontic appliances. orthodontics-in-berkshire

Much like any treatment at our dental clinic, clear aligners always start with an introductory appointment with a member of our specialist team. Once our team and our patient have decided that clear aligners are right for their smile, the treatment journey can begin!

How to take care of your clear aligners in the comfort of your own home

Once you have received your clear aligner trays they are replaced every couple of weeks in order to encourage your teeth to move into the desired position. When going about your everyday life, the clear aligner trays should be removed for eating, drinking, and when brushing, and flossing your teeth.
