Maybe when you were a kid and the dentist told your mum that your teeth weren’t wonky enough to warrant having to wear NHS braces you thought you were one of the lucky ones. How do you feel about it now? Wish your teeth had been more out of alignment so that you qualified for treatment? Think that the only way to get straighter teeth is to go through at least a year of cumbersome metal braces that make you look like all those poor kids you saw suffering in school?

If so, well have we got news for you! At Garden View Dental Care, you can get your teeth realigned with clear braces in Buckinghamshire.

What are clear braces in Buckinghamshire?

At Garden View Dental Care, we are accredited providers of Six Month Smiles, so-called because the average treatment time is only 6 months.

These braces use the well-documented technology of brackets and wires, which have been proven over many years to provide predictable and accurate alignment. However, these brackets and wires are different from the ones that made so many adolescents miserable back in the day.

The brackets are made of clear ceramic, so you can still see your teeth behind them. Plus the wires are finer than on old-style braces, and there’s only one instead of 2. It’s coated in a tooth-coloured material, so it also blends in with your teeth. In fact, your braces look more like a necklace of clear square beads on your teeth than a straightening device. From across the room, no one will be able to see it, and close up, it will look attractive rather than disfiguring.

Who can have clear braces in Buckinghamshire?

Six Month Smiles are designed to straighten the front 6-8 teeth. These are the ones that can be seen during most interactions. They only have one root, unlike molars, which have 3 roots. This makes them easier to move with gentler forces.

So, if it’s your front teeth that are mildly to moderately out of whack, then these clear braces in Buckinghamshire are likely for you. The best way to find out if they are is to come in for a consultation.
