First things first - what are braces?
Braces are typically used to straighten teeth and correct your bite.
Not only do they achieve a perfect smile, they can also have many oral health benefits too. Any person of any age can get braces, although they are more common among children.
As a treatment that is rapidly increasing in popularity in the dental market, clear braces can pose a number of benefits to the patient.
Previously, the only method of treatment for those with misaligned teeth was traditional ‘train track’ braces. An eye-catching option with an average treatment length of 24 months, traditional braces are often approached with a sense of disdain – particularly amongst adult patients. However, due to developments in dental technology, there are now alternative treatments for patients to take.
Stained braces are a common problem for many orthodontic patients. It ruins the appearance of the individual, can be a harbour for bacteria that cause tooth decay and can contribute to the malfunctioning of the actual braces themselves.
