At Smïl, we aim to provide numerous solutions to give our patients optimal choice over their bespoke treatment plan. We currently offer the following teeth-straightening systems:
Invisalign® is a modern approach to orthodontics that uses clear aligner technology with a series of customised aligners to transform your smile. Each aligner needs to be worn for 1-2 weeks before moving on to the next. If necessary, you will visit your dentist every 6-8 weeks during your treatment to ensure everything is going according to plan.
If you’ve decided that Invisalign® is an option you’d like to explore for straightening your teeth, your dentist can perform a “Clin-check,” in which moulds and photographs of your teeth are transmitted to Invisalign®. At your follow-up visit, you will be able to witness a live 3D animation of how your teeth will appear when they are finished. This is a unique approach to examine a ‘before and after’ to assist you to decide whether or not to proceed.
Wearing retainers is recommended as long as you want your teeth to remain secure in their place. There is a danger of tooth relapse if a retainer is not worn.
Invisalign: it exert mild pressure on teeth over time to realign them. As you progress from one aligner to the next in the series, your teeth will move a step closer to their optimal end position. Essentially, there is no difference in treatment effectiveness between commercial brands and the aligner trays that we manufacture.
We value your time, which is why we constantly strive to provide our patients with their aligners as soon as possible. You should expect a quick turnaround time whether you are waiting for your original trays or need one to replace an aligner that you have misplaced or inadvertently damaged. In comparison, large companies may take longer to fulfill requests and mail them back to our Dental Practice.
Damon™ is closer to the traditional fixed brace, with the added advantage of clear brackets and innovative wire arch technology. This allows for faster, more reliable results and more comfortable wear than traditional fixed braces.
The Damon™ System revolves around passive self-ligating braces. These eliminate the need for elastic or metal “ties,” enabling you to receive treatment without tightening. Instead, the sliding mechanism of the braces, which is used to keep the archwires in place, responds to your tooth movement, gently easing it into alignment. Damon™ braces can be worn by patients of all ages.
Many people believe that traditional metal fixed braces are too ‘obvious,’ revealing to others that they are undergoing orthodontic treatment. Clear fixed braces are an excellent choice since they give all of the benefits of straightening and alignment while remaining discreet. They may be an excellent option is you are seeking solutions for the following:
Clear braces are made of translucent ceramic brackets that are placed to your teeth rather than metal brackets. Wires that are tooth-coloured can also be utilised, making the brace even less noticeable. During your consultation appointment, we will determine whether transparent fixed braces are appropriate for you.
Insignia is a fixed appliance that is designed specifically for each individual patient. Each bracket is custom-made and treatment precisely calculated to affect your tooth movement in the most optimal way, resulting in fewer clinic visits and faster treatment time.
Being treated with Insignia™ has numerous advantages. Here are a few of the reasons why Insignia delivers quality orthodontic care:
