What are invisible braces in Luton, and why may I choose to undergo invisible brace treatment at Vogue Dental Care in Luton?

Invisible braces are essentially a more discreet and subtle form of orthodontics. Clear aligners, or Inman aligners are just a few examples of subtle forms of orthodontics. Individuals may choose to undergo invisible braces if they wish to opt for more subtle forms of braces. Individuals may choose to undergo more discreet options if they are in a professional career environment (for example) and do not wish to hinder their career prospects with obvious orthodontics. Older individuals may feel as if braces (especially traditional metal braces) are more suited towards patients of the younger generation,and therefore may feel more comfortable with subtle braces. Younger individuals may also choose to undergo discreet brace treatment (although unfortunately these may not be available on the national health service). Younger patients may suffer dramatically from lower self-esteem due to modern day society, and social media platforms, so therefore may choose invisible braces. Essentially, any individual would probably prefer to have clear braces, due to the fact that they are practically invisible to anyone who they may come into contact with.

What if I am a nervous dental patient?

We are aware that individuals may experience anxiety when visiting their local dental surgery. Individuals may feel nervous for a wide array of reasons, one of which may be a phobia. A phobia is an irrational fear that may have developed from a trigger such as a negative childhood experience. Patients who experience anxiety when visiting their dentist may refrain from visiting their local surgery on a regular basis, which is why we strive to ensure our patients are comfortable with us.

Are there different forms of invisible braces available at your dental surgery in Luton?

Although the common misconception may be that clear aligners are the only form of discreet orthodontics, this is far from the truth. One example of clear or ‘invisible braces’ are clear aligners. Clear aligners, one provider of which is ‘Invisalign’, work by replacing the retainer like mechanism every few weeks. Clear aligners slowly alter the alignment of the teeth, moving them positively into a straighter direction. Inman aligners are not completely invisible, but are extremely effective and subtle, compared to traditional metal braces. Inman aligners work by using a thin wire at the back of the teeth, this can produce results within as little as six weeks. Individuals may choose this alternative if they do not wish to wait a long period of time to see results.
