Our orthodontist Stoke-on-Trent can help you improve your oral health and general well-being

When looking to correct your smile with braces or aligners, there are several additional benefits you can enjoy. It can lower your risk of gum disease and infection as well as improve your general health and well-being. Patients who experience overlapping or overcrowding may find it difficult to access their teeth when brushing and flossing; this could result in a build-up of bacteria and may cause gum disease. If left untreated, the condition may worsen, and the patient may experience additional symptoms such as a change in their breath, inflamed gums, or tooth sensitivity.

Often it is your smile that people notice about you during a first encounter. Patients with misaligned teeth may feel embarrassed about the state of their teeth, causing them to have low self-esteem as a result. In some cases, this can lead to patients limiting their social interactions with family and friends or shying away from social events at work. Invisible braces may be a great solution to help straighten your teeth and enhance your smile, boosting your confidence levels in the process.

Are braces known to cause discomfort and pain during wear?

Braces usually consist of wires, bands, and brackets, which all work together to put pressure on your teeth, causing them to straighten into the correct positions over time. This slow movement corrects any misalignment, resulting in an improved smile that you can feel confident about.

For some patients, the feeling of this pressure against their teeth may cause some discomfort, but our dental team would be happy to help with minimising any pain as much as possible during the treatment process.

Enjoy less disruption to your schedule with invisible aligners such as Invisalign

If you are considering invisible aligners such as Invisalign as your orthodontic treatment of choice, you may be pleased to discover it will result in fewer visits to our clinic. Traditional metal braces are usually fixed onto the patient’s teeth and require adjustments to be made by our dentist. Invisible aligners do not require any adjustments, so you can enjoy less disruption to your schedule as a result.

Enjoy a customised treatment plan to suit your individual smile goals

Here at Ashlow Orthodontics, our orthodontist Stoke-on-Trent can perform a simple examination to review the status of your teeth and gums. Each patient is unique, and as such, they may require different types of orthodontics to suit their smile goals. By assessing your teeth and gums, we can offer a personalised treatment plan on the most effective dental solution to suit your needs.

Added benefits following the completion of your treatment include improved oral health and well-being, a boost to your self-esteem and healthy teeth and gums.
