Teeth Straightening in Colchester– all your questions answered
If you are looking for teeth straightening in Colchester, you may be trying to decide which treatment would be right for you. Teeth straightening treatments help to straighten out crooked teeth and move your teeth into better alignment, giving you the smile you are looking for.
Here at The Dental Studio we have put together some of the most frequently asked questions about teeth straightening to help give you a starting point for your research:
Are Teeth Straightening Treatments safe?
When performed by a highly-trained dentist, teeth straightening is definitely a safe procedure. The only thing to remember is that while undergoing treatment you will need to ensure that your oral hygiene routine intensifies. If you have a fixed brace it takes time and effort to ensure that you remove plaque and food debris that can build up around the brackets and wires.
Will I need to have teeth extracted?
The team at The Dental Studio will do everything possible to preserve your existing, natural teeth and straighten your smile without having to carry out extractions. Although we will of course let you know if we feel an extraction would be the best course of action.
How long will it take to straighten my teeth?
Here at The Dental Studio we offer a variety of different teeth straightening procedures with treatment completed in anywhere between 3 months and 2 years. The dentist will be able to advise you when you attend for your consultation appointment.
Which is the best teeth straightening system for me?
The best treatment will depend on how much work is needed to achieve the smile of your dreams. Not every teeth straightening system is suitable for every patient and this is why The Dental Studio offer a wide range of teeth straightening treatment options.
How often will I need to attend for appointments?
The number and frequency of teeth straightening appointments will depend on the teeth straightening system you are using. Typically, appointments occur every four to eight weeks.
Will Teeth Straightening hurt?
It is likely that you may experience some discomfort when your aligners are changed or wires are tightened, but this should ease within a few days.
Can I afford Teeth Straightening?
As a cosmetic procedure, teeth straightening for adults is a private dental treatment. Here at The Dental Studio we believe that everyone should be able to afford the dental care that they need. We therefore are able to offer a range of finance options to help spread the cost of teeth straightening allowing you to achieve your dream smile.
