Do you have crooked or crowded teeth? Are you considering orthodontic treatment in Singleton, NSW?
Our team can help you choose the best option for your oral health and aesthetic goals.
When patients consider orthodontic care, they often want straight teeth, but treatments like clear aligners and braces can also improve your teeth's function and longevity.
About Clear Aligners in Singleton, NSW
Clear aligners are discreet trays you wear over your teeth. Over time, these trays can correct mild to moderate:
- Bite Misalignment
- Crooked and Overlapping Teeth
- Uneven Gaps or Spacing Between Teeth
Your dentist will assess your orthodontic issues to ensure that clear aligners are a suitable option.
About Braces in Singleton, NSW
Traditional braces use brackets and wires. They may be the better option for moderate-to-severe misalignment.
Your Consultation with the Dentist
Your dentist can explain what to expect with either option. However, if you’re a candidate for both, clear aligners offer a few benefits over traditional dental braces. For example, clear aligners are more discreet than traditional wire braces, and you can remove them to eat, drink and clean your teeth. Typically, you visit the dentist less frequently for monitoring if you choose clear aligners.
Your consultation includes an assessment and conversation with the dentist about your smile goals. We can then discuss costs and financing. You’ll also learn how long treatment will last.
No matter the option you choose, we fit you with a custom retainer at the end of treatment. It’s important to wear your retainer as directed by the dentist to prevent orthodontic relapse.
