Mossley Dental Care is a short drive from Manchester and provides a full range of orthodontic treatments including the Inman Aligner.
The Inman Aligner is a removable brace which means it can be removed for eating and cleaning. It can be used to straighten either upper or lower teeth (or both).
The active component of the Inman Aligner is a coil spring which is made of an alloy called Nickel-Titanium. This alloy provides a continuous gentle force on the teeth which means that once the appliance is fitted adjustments are usually not necessary as the coil spring will provide the correct force to fully align the teeth.
An accurate impression of your teeth is required to be sent to the laboratory to make the invisible brace. The laboratory technician moves your teeth on a stone model to the correct position so they are nice and straight and the Inman Aligner is made to fit over this new model of your teeth so that the inbuilt forces of the appliance will automatically straighten your teeth when it is fitted in your mouth.
The Inman aligner is very good at aligning the incisor teeth but for cases which require significant movement of the canines a fixed appliance may be more appropriate, such as Six Month Smiles. In cases where the teeth are very crowded/overlapped an expansion screw can be fitted into the Inman Aligner to widen the side teeth which can create space for the incisors to align.
Every case is different and we advise that you find an experienced clinician who has treated hundreds of cases with both fixed braces such as Six Month Smiles, Damon braces, and Lingual braces and removable braces such as the Inman Aligner and Invisalign.
