Correcting the positioning of teeth using orthodontics can not only provide aesthetic improvements but usually functional too.

Ortho- meaning straight, -dontic meaning teeth essentially is dental treatment involving the movement of the teeth within the jaw.

Throughout our lifetime out teeth will drift as changes to our jaw shapes occur as we age. Through the use of a controlled continuous pressure applied to individual teeth over time, we can reposition teeth predictably and safely.

Orthodontic treatment used to predominantly involve fixed braces AKA train tracks, however recent technology updates mean we can now complete the process using a series of clear “incognito” plastic aligner trays.

Invisalign is one form of plastic aligner tray system.
