Removable Braces For Patients In Liverpool: For Life On The Go

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2013

If we could relive our orthodontic experiences it would be no surprise if many of us opted for the recently arrived fashionable and flexible removable braces—instead of the traditional brackets that were fitted onto many teeth. One of the amazing things is that many people still aren’t aware of such technological advances in teeth straightening such as Invisalign clear braces, ClearStep and Perfect Clear!

Removable braces

If you are unaware of what exactly these braces can do to help you, then read on. Firstly, they provide the wearer with an unparalleled level of discreetness when undergoing orthodontic treatment. We all know that there is not much worse than feeling exposed and unattractive if your mouth is full of metal braces. However, since many of the removable appliances double up as clear alternatives, you can avoid this feeling altogether.

Discreet

In addition to being discreet, removable braces are removable. They can (and should) be taken out before mealtimes, so you don’t have to worry about smiling with spinach-clogged brackets and wires. You also need not worry about any debris becoming trapped between your teeth (one of the main reasons for dental erosion during braces treatment).

Removable braces are also easier to clean. In fact, you can literally see every angle of the aligner to be sure that your device gets a thorough cleaning.

Removable braces might sound too good to be true, but they’re not! While certain cases of severe misalignment require the force of fixed metal braces, many people can benefit from removable braces. To determine which type of brace would be best for you, drop into our practice in Liverpool and we can discuss your options.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Benefits Of Removable Braces For Patients In Liverpool

Monday, December 3rd, 2012

Removable braces like ClearStep, Invisalign and Perfect Clear are excellent in terms of offering patients higher level of discretion during treatment. Removable aligners are an excellent solution when it comes to the straightening of teeth, although it’s true that some of the orthodontic problems would require fixed braces to have better tooth movement. Most of the simple treatments might be carried out using a removable appliance.

Benefits

Removable aligners can be easily removed before eating. They give patients the opportunity to freely enjoy food and since the aligners are not worn during eating, debris doesn’t get stuck between the tooth and brace. This makes it easier to maintain dental hygiene and reduces the risk of decay and dental erosion. Dental hygiene is very difficult with fixed braces and because they cannot be removed even while eating, plaque is easily formed. Hence, patients with fixed braces will be required to brush their teeth after every meal; sticky and harsh food will create lot of problems.

Cleaning is easy

Removable aligners can be easily cleaned. As with the fixed braces, these do not have the hard to clean wires and brackets. You can clean them gently with a toothbrush after you soak them in glass of water for 15 minutes. A glass of water should be enough for this purpose.

Removable aligners can be removed for a photo session or when you are out for a special occasion. This way the patient will stay comfortable during their time out and will not need to stay conscious of the appearance of their mouth.

Since removable braces do not need dental glue or cement to attach them to the front area of the tooth, no marks or residue is left behind. So once the treatment is over, patients can simply remove the braces and enjoy the result of the treatment.
