Your options for straighter teeth in Windsor
At Old Windsor Dental Practice, we offer a range of teeth straightening treatments. If you are looking for braces in Windsor, look no further.
ClearSmile Aligner
This is a transparent, removable tray that fits over your teeth. It works on the front 6-8 teeth, the ones that show most when we smile. Treatment takes 6-24 months to complete, depending on the severity of misalignment.
The great benefit for adults is that the aligners are clear, and can’t be seen. They are also removable. This means they can be taken out for eating and cleaning, and there are no issues with food getting stuck in the brace.
Invisalign
The Invisalign system is also made from clear aligners. Unlike ClearSmile, it can be used to correct misalignments of the teeth across the whole set. Treatment takes 12-18 months, depending on the severity of the case.
The aligners trays are also removable and transparent. And, in common with ClearSmile, are custom-made using digital technology. For both treatments, our braces dentist will take impressions of your teeth using a handheld digital scanner. These measurements are then fed into a computer programme, and a 3D treatment plan is created. This has two benefits: it shows you what your teeth will look like at the end of treatment, and it gives the technicians pinpoint accurate measurements with which to create your bespoke braces.
Incognito
These are lingual braces, which means that they are fitted to the tongue side of the teeth. The great benefit of this is that they are completely hidden from view. They also can treat the whole range of teeth misalignment issues, rather than merely cosmetic issues, which is the case with many other types of adult braces in Windsor. Treatment can take up to two years.
Fixed metal braces
We also provide traditional bracket and wire braces in Windsor, because for certain issues, they are still the best tool for the job. Treatment can again take up to two years.
After all these procedures, a retainer will need to be worn to hold the teeth in their new positions.
