Work your braces around your lifestyle, not the other way around

If you are planning to get your teeth straightened, you might imagine that you will have to put your social life, your work life, your dating life on hold while you suffer from brace face. Brace face is what happens when you wear metal train track braces and everyone stares at you whenever you open your mouth.

You can go about straightening with metal braces if you want to, but if you’d rather have a life and have braces, it’s worth checking out invisible braces in Luton.

Here at Vogue Dental Care, we offer a great range of invisible braces in Luton. There’s bound to be a design that will suit your alignment issues, your budget and your lifestyle.

Fixed invisible braces in Luton

These are a discreet take on traditional bracket and wire braces. You still have brackets on your teeth, but they are way smaller and made of clear ceramic. The teeth are moved by the wire between the brackets, but it’s much finer and it’s also tooth-coloured. Your braces, while not entirely invisible, can’t be seen from a distance and, up close, look more like tooth jewellery than a dental device. These braces use gentle forces that work well on the front 6-8 teeth, which are more easily moved because they only have one root.

Removable invisible braces in Luton

No brackets, no wires. Nothing that resembles braces, in fact. Instead, you have very thin plastic that is moulded to cover your teeth like a second layer of enamel, hugging your gumline so that these clear aligners cannot be seen at all once they are in place. Clear aligners really are invisible braces in Luton. They move your teeth by pressing on them with carefully placed bumps and ridges. The progression of movement is achieved by wearing a series of aligners, each one for 7-10 days. Take them out to eat and to clean your teeth.

Removable single devices

These are great for the front teeth, using spring-loaded bands or wires on a plate that goes over the teeth. Treatment can be completed in as little as 6 weeks.
