Do you remember being at school and seeing at least half a dozen kids running around the playground wearing colourful or jewelled braces?  Well it turns out that adults are doing the same thing… well… not exactly, but Sumathi Reddi of The Wall Street Journal says that more and more adults each year are opting for braces over other procedures to straighten teeth, close gaps, and correct their bite. Rather than the blingy braces we’re used to seeing, adults are going for a more understated look with porcelain or clear braces. Buckinghamshire dental practice, Garden View Dental Care recommends clear braces to their adult patients, as they’re often considerably cheaper than some other teeth straightening methods, so don’t be surprised if you notice an abundance of men and women sporting braces around Buckinghamshire! Clear braces however are designed to be discreet, so it’s highly unlikely that you would ever notice.

Are celebrities making braces cool?

Outside of the county of Buckinghamshire, clear braces have been spotted on the red carpet! That’s right, Hollywood! According to Fashion magazine Elle, celebrities have been wearing clear braces for years (how didn’t we notice? Oh wait…) Faith Hill wore braces during the 2013 Grammy Awards at the grand old age of 45, and older still, Fay Dunaway at 61 isn’t afraid to wear braces either. Ever wondered how Tom cruise maintains that celebrity smile with those perfectly straight pearly whites? You guessed it, clear braces. Buckinghamshire dental clinic, Garden View Dental Care, offer a package called ‘Six Month Smiles’. This involves patients wearing clear braces for just six months on average. The clinic is an advocate of these braces, as they’re shown to give some of the most conservative and predictable results, with prices starting from just £1900. To complete the look, the ‘Six Month Smiles’ package includes a whitening kit to use after the removal of the clear braces. Buckinghamshire patient Louis Dodd highly recommends the ‘Six Month Smile’ treatment he received from his dentist Dr Makhani at Garden View Dental, stating that he is “very happy with the results and it was completed within the estimated timeframe.”

Try clear braces for adults to help you achieve that perfect smile!
