If you’re thinking of improving your smile, you may look to short term orthodontics for a number of reasons.
Orthodontics aims to improve the appearance, position and function of crooked or abnormally arranged teeth. Having straighter teeth not only improves the overall appearance and aesthetics but it also allows better cleaning therefore improving the overall oral hygiene and periodontal (gum) health.
What is short term orthodontics?
Short term orthodontic solutions are ideal for patients who are seeking to straighten teeth but are put off by the idea of wearing a conventional metal brace or aligners.
The brace consists of clear brackets and tooth coloured wires. It’s fairly discreet and adjusted every 4 weeks.
Over a of few months, the custom-designed brace gently pushes the teeth into the correct position, correcting spaced, crowded and overlapping teeth.
Final results can be achieved in as little as 6 months. The brand we use for this is Quick Straight Teeth (QST).
All QST Dentists only use 3m brackets. These have a proven track-record for their performance, aesthetics, and they are nearly invisible in the mouth. Tooth-coloured wires are used to make the braces very aesthetic.
QST is used to correct mild misalignment of the front 6 to 8 teeth, to give you a beautiful smile. Because only front teeth are moved, the force required is minimal. The wires exert mild pressure, without the need for severe tightening which can cause discomfort.
