Do you have a special occasion coming up this summer like a wedding or birthday and you want your smile to look its best? Don’t fret because with short-term limited objectives orthodontics, it’s possible to have the smile you want in a matter of months.
Short term orthodontics options at Park Lane
Here at Park Lane, we offer brace options that can straighten your teeth in as little as 6 months. Although short term orthodontics cannot be used in more complex cases, there are several orthodontic issues that are treatable with clear fixed braces and lingual braces:
- Widely spaced teeth.
- Mild crowded teeth.
- Misaligned teeth.
Short term orthodontics generally deals with the teeth known as the ‘social six’, in other words, those visible to others when you expose your teeth to smile.
Clear fixed braces
Here at Park Lane we have our own version of Six Month Smiles treatment at a competitive price. Customised to suit your tooth shade and size, clear fixed braces combine clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires to help them blend in with your smile.
‘Invisible’ lingual braces
Lingual braces are classed as an ‘invisible’ brace type, sitting on the tongue side of your teeth, out of view from others; your friends will not even know you are undergoing orthodontic treatment. Lingual braces are attached to the front 6 or 8 teeth, using gentle force to shift them into a desired position.
