If you need orthodontics in Stoke, you are probably fed up with the appearance of your smile, or you have pain or issues with cleaning your teeth properly or chewing food easily. If this is the case, you won’t want to have to wait to join our dental practice; you’ll want to get started straight away with orthodontics in Stoke!

At Ashlow Orthodontics, we specialise in orthodontics in Stoke, and we won’t make you wait to get the care and treatment that you need. We have a team of experienced and friendly dentists who will understand what you need to get the smile you want. All you need to do is book a consultation to discuss your concerns, and we will be able to examine you and suggest the various treatments we have that would be suitable for you, whether it’s cosmetic or corrective. An example of one of our popular cosmetic treatments is Invisalign.

Be in the know

If you haven’t heard of Invisalign before, then be prepared to be amazed (no dramatic swishing of our magical cloaks, but it is a little bit special)! Invisalign is a brand of a system of aligners that are made of plastic. The plastic material is transparent, so when they are worn over the teeth, only your gnashers should be visible to anyone else. This means that you can have a discreet treatment that only you should know about (unless you can’t contain your excitement and tell everyone!).

The aligners apply pressure to the teeth to push them into position, and this process ordinarily takes around 6 to 18 months. During this time, you will need to change your aligners every couple of weeks and come to see us for checkups every six weeks. The aligners can be removed for a couple of hours daily, meaning that you will have time to brush your teeth without anything getting in the way. Moreover, you won’t need to adapt your diet to avoid damaging your aligners as they won’t be in your mouth while you chow down on your main!

Other advantages

If you’re wondering why it might be a good option to choose Invisalign, there is the obvious benefit of being able to wear the aligners and not have to worry about what they will look like to other people. Whether you are a teenager or an adult, Invisalign could be a suitable treatment for you, so you can head to class or your next boardroom meeting knowing that other people won’t be distracted by your teeth!

However, it isn’t just about this. Having Invisalign can make a difference to your oral health. When your teeth are misaligned it can be difficult to clean them properly. By choosing Invisalign, your teeth can be optimally positioned for cleaning once your treatment is complete. What’s more, you may also find it easier to chew your food and speak clearly. If you had jaw pain because of misaligned teeth, this could also be rectified.

With bespoke aligners made, thanks to the iTero technology we can use to scan your mouth and get the necessary measurements, there is also a high chance that you should find the treatment very comfortable. So, why wait any longer? You won’t have to if you come to see us at Ashlow Orthodontics.
