Adults from Manchester embrace tooth braces

These days in Manchester when you walk down Deansgate you are just as likely to see someone in their 30s or 40s with tooth braces as you are to see a teenager who is undergoing orthodontics. The reason adult braces are becoming more popular is because they are available in metal free “plastic” versions which are far less visible and also that they work much quicker than they used to.

If you want nice straight front teeth the average treatment time at Mossley Dental Care is about six to nine months and Mr Winston is achieving consistently great results with Six Month Smiles braces for patients from all around Manchester. Last week a patient came to the practice from Middleton wanting to know if we could do anything for her crooked teeth. She had refused braces as a child because at the time she did not want to undergo 2-3 years of treatment. We told her that we could straighten her front teeth in about six months and we showed her the clear tooth braces that we use and she decided to get started as soon as possible because she had a holiday planned for later on this year and wanted to see if we could get her treatment done before she went.

We have various payment options including interest free credit so you can spread the cost of your treatment, we offer convenient evening appointments and we are just a short drive from the M60 with plenty free parking around the practice. Mr Winston has over ten years of orthodontic experience and has a MSc degree in the subject.

Of course not everbody is suitable for Six Month Smiles treatment but we offer various tooth straightening options and at your free consultation we can explain all your options. Other options include, Invisalign, the inman aligner, lingual braces and Damon braces. Mossley Dental Care treats patient from around greater Manchester and has a great reputation for quality orthodontic results.

The Difference Between Normal and Invisible Braces at Dentists serving patients from Glossop

Don’t hide yourself – hide your braces!

When we think of braces, we often picture the unsightly metal devices attached to the front of your teeth. But if you’ve got crowded or crooked teeth and dream of a straighter smile, then you’ll be pleased to know that these traditional braces are a thing of the past.

At Mossley Dental Care which serves patients from Glossop, we offer a choice of discreet orthodontic treatments that will perfect your smile without affecting your confidence.

Invisalign

Invisalign are clear aligners that are placed over the teeth for an effect that is almost invisible. Invisalign come with a unique ClinCheck treatment plan, which uses 3D virtual imaging technology to allow you to see what the finished result will look like before embarking on your treatment. You will return to the practice every two weeks for a new set of custom-made aligners. Each clear aligner will gradually alter the position of the teeth until the finished result is achieved. What’s more, Invisalign braces can be removed for eating, cleaning or for social occasions, making them a convenient alternative to traditional fixed braces. Invisalign also has a special programme to cater for the special requirements of young teenagers: Invisalign Teen.

Lingual Braces

Lingual braces are another invisible orthodontic treatment. Thin wires are tailor-made and fixed to the back of the teeth with small brackets, so that they cannot be seen when you talk and smile. Their discreet positioning also makes them easier to keep clean and treatment time is considerably shorter than normal braces (treatment lasts on average about 6 months).

Invisible braces don’t just look nicer, they are also more comfortable to wear. Traditional metal braces can irritate the cheeks and lips and may even cause sores and ulcers. Invisible braces mean that more and more adults are now deciding to have orthodontic work done, which they never dreamed they’d have the confidence to do.

Please contact Mr Winston at the practice to find out more about these exciting dental technologies.

Inman aligner patients in Manchester achieve straight teeth

The Inman aligner was developed in the USA a number of years ago because of an increasing demand for rapid tooth straightening. Now this demand from patients has travelled across the Atlantic to the UK and Manchester people are benefiting from this removable brace.

The brace is primarily for adult patients with mild to moderate irregularity in their front teeth. It places light pressure on the front and back surfaces of the front teeth using forces from small coil springs which place just the right amount of force to achieve optimal tooth movement. The brace can be used for either upper or lower teeth (or both).

Mr Winston has been using Inman aligners to straighten crooked front teeth for a number of years and is experienced in its proper use. He also uses various types of spring aligners in some situations to provide a very quick and cost effective solution to minor crowding of the front teeth.

It is  important to  know what this appliance can and cannot do and Mr Winston has had postgraduate training in orthodontics and also offers clear/ceramic braces, 6 Month Smiles, Damon braces, Invisalign and lingual braces for his Manchester patients. He has a full understanding of a number of orthodontic treatment options and has been providing orthodontic treatments in his practice for more than ten years.

Mossley is off junction 23 of the M60 and is easily reachable by car. Because of the demand for tooth straightening and adult braces from Manchester patients Mossley Dental offers a free initial consultation to discuss the Inman aligner and other teeth straightening treatments for adult and child patients and if required evening appointments are available. Mr Winston can show you an Inman aligner at your initial consultation and talk you through all of your options.

Inman aligners are just one of the cost effective options for invisible tooth straighteining for adults.

Free teeth whitening with adult braces at Hyde dentists

Adult dental braces have become more and more popular over the last decade and with the amazing, discreet and highly effective systems now available, it’s easy to see why. Misaligned and crooked teeth can affect how the teeth bite together and also the function of the mouth and jaw for eating and speech. At Mossley Dental Care in Hyde, we offer a number of options in braces treatments to correct misaligned or crooked teeth and dental positioning.

Options in adult braces include:

  • Damon Braces
  • The Inman Aligner
  • Invisalign Braces
  • Lingual Braces
  • Six Month Smiles

Damon Braces provide gentle, yet effective force, to quickly re-position teeth. Wires without ties are secured through a sliding mechanism on the brackets fitted to each tooth, allowing smooth movement and easy wire changes.

The Inman Aligner treatment is comprised of a clear plastic removable device, which uses opposing forces on the front and backs of teeth to quickly move the teeth into place. Similarly, Invisalign braces are also clear and removable, applying a gradual force to each tooth for repositioning. Lingual braces are fitted to the inside of either the lower or upper teeth for completely invisible treatment and Six Month Smiles use tooth coloured attachments and wires to reposition your teeth within just six months.

Our team at Mossley Dental Care can examine your mouth, discuss braces options with you and tell you which system best suit your needs. Don’t let crooked, crowded teeth or gaps between your teeth get you down. We have options here to help you improve your appearance and smile.

What adult braces treatments are available for patients living in Ashton under Lyne?

Although traditionally seen attached to the teeth of children and teenagers, braces are now becoming much more popular with adults, who want to improve the appearance of their smiles regardless of their age.

Braces were once thought to be an intrusive procedure, characterised by unsightly metal and thick uncomfortable wires. However, the look of braces has been greatly transformed in recent years and can now provide discreet and comfortable treatment.

Adults who are considering braces will be happy to know that treatment can be carried out much quicker today than in previous years. There is also a wider range of braces available, catering for all your needs and requirements.

Because each patient is unique and may require braces for a variety of reasons, it is advisable to book a consultation with a dentist, to determine which type of braces would be best suited for your needs, lifestyle and budget.

Some of the options available in Ashton under Lyne for adults include Invisalign, Damon Braces, the Inman Aligner and Six month smiles.

Invisalign braces are an invisible alternative to traditional metal braces. These braces adjust your teeth by way of a set of clear aligners and patients have reported to feel like they’re not wearing braces at all.

If you want a quick treatment time with fewer visits to the dentist then Damon Braces are perfect for you. They provide comfort and ease during use and are composed of brackets that are smaller than traditional braces, making them more aesthetically pleasing.

The Inman Aligner has little discomfort, provides fast results and is a cost effective method for straightening your teeth. This treatment is completed in three stages and creates beautiful smiles in a fraction of the time of other brace systems.

Finally, Six month braces are the height of fast orthodontic treatment. This type of braces is attached to the teeth and will give results quickly and efficiently. These braces provide fast results, are custom made and sit comfortably within the mouth.
