Invisible braces: we’re not kidding

Invisible braces in Luton might sound like science fiction, but at Vogue Dental Care we know it to be very much science fact. Invisible braces aren’t strictly completely invisible, as that would make them rather hard to fit but they are so close to invisible that when you’re wearing them, onlookers won’t be able to spot them.

What are invisible braces?

One of the most popular brands of invisible braces in Luton, which we provide to our patients, is Invisalign. Its power of invisibility comes from the fact that it is not made of metal but clear plastic instead. These custom-made 3D printed aligners fit snugly over your teeth and push them into alignment.

Their clear design makes them ideal for adults who don’t want to let on that they are wearing braces but still crave a straighter set of teeth. Being removable is another bonus of Invisalign in Luton. You take them out to brush, floss and at mealtimes, so you don’t need to spend ages in the bathroom picking out food trapped between your teeth and your braces. This also means your dental health is more likely to stay in good shape during the course of your treatment.

Invisalign isn’t just a timesaver when it comes to time spent cleaning your teeth. You’ll also need fewer visits than with traditional fixed metal braces as we don’t need to adjust any wires to keep your treatment on track. That’s all taken care of with the careful design of pressure points within your aligners.

Is Invisalign right for you?

Invisalign is suitable for most adults with mild to moderate misalignments. Crooked, crowded, slightly rotated or gappy teeth can all be fixed with these clear aligners. More complex issues will however need alternative treatment, which we are more than happy to discuss with you so you can find the right kind of braces for your dental health and your lifestyle.
