At Ashlow Orthodontics, we offer private treatment with no waiting lists for all of our patients. We also offer free NHS care to patients under 18 for treatments other than cosmetic dentistry. If you have misaligned teeth, you may be hoping to get an improved smile that prevents you from having speech or jaw issues, difficulty with keeping your teeth and gums clean and healthy, as well as a more aesthetically pleasing smile. Whatever your goals are, if you come to see our experienced and professional team, we will be able to advise you about which treatment would suit you. With a variety of treatments on offer, we will examine your mouth thoroughly during an initial consultation to determine what might be right for you. Check out some of our popular treatments.
Invisalign
For patients with mild to moderate alignment issues, braces Stoke-on-Trent don’t have to mean fixed metal ones. With Invisalign, other people shouldn’t even be able to see the appliance because you will be wearing plastic aligners that are transparent and only show the teeth when they are worn. They sit over the teeth like a gum shield, but more comfortable and streamlined; they are made bespoke to fit your mouth. They apply pressure to the teeth to move them into the desired position over approximately 6 to 18 months. They may be removed for up to 2 hours a day, allowing for eating and drinking to continue as normal. There are many benefits to Invisalign, which we can discuss with you when you come in to see us.
Lingual braces
If you do require fixed braces Stoke-on-Trent, we offer Incognito lingual braces. This comprises brackets fixed to the backs of the teeth, rather than the front, so when you smile, people won’t realise you have a fixed brace in your mouth. It allows for patients to feel confident in continuing with their daily lives, safe in the knowledge that they are improving their smile discreetly. They are easy to clean and offer a convenient method for realigning your teeth without the need to feel self-conscious about it.
Adolescents
While we have treatments for anyone with their adult teeth, we also treat adults whose jaws are still developing, and this makes it a great time to address alignment issues. If you are concerned about a dental issue associated with your child, we would love to help as it is advisable to seek treatment at this age; it can become more costly to address issues in adulthood. If your child sucks their thumb or has overlapping teeth, an overbite or an underbite, for example, they may need braces Stoke-on-Trent to help address the issue. At Ashlow Orthodontics, we are here for the whole family and will be able to advise on the right treatments to address the issues.
So, if you are concerned about the appearance of your teeth and feel that you may need braces to improve your smile, come and see our team. At Ashlow Orthodontics, our range of treatments offer solutions to alignment issues and also to the anxieties you may have about getting your teeth aligned. When you talk to us, we will be able to offer you a treatment that you won’t want to be without.
