Invisible Braces in Oxford
At John Miller dental Practice in Oxfordshire, we specialise in discreet orthodontic solutions that transform your smile without the noticeable appearance of traditional metal braces. As an Invisalign Diamond Provider, we have extensive experience treating patients with invisible braces, helping hundreds of patients achieve their dream smile with minimal impact on their daily lives.
What Are Invisible Braces?
Invisible braces are a modern alternative to traditional metal braces, designed to straighten teeth discreetly using clear, removable aligners. The most advanced system of invisible braces is Invisalign, which uses a series of custom-made, virtually undetectable aligners that gradually move your teeth into the desired position.
These clear orthodontic devices offer the perfect teeth-straightening solution for adults and teenagers who want to improve their smile without the visibility of metal brackets and wires. The convenience and aesthetic benefits have made invisible braces the treatment of choice for over half a million people worldwide.
Invisalign: The Gold Standard in Invisible Braces
At John Miller Dental Practice, we proudly offer Invisalign – the leading system of invisible braces. As an Invisalign Diamond Provider in Oxfordshire, we’ve successfully treated a substantial number of cases, placing us among the most experienced Invisalign providers in the UK.
How Do Invisible Braces Work?
The Invisalign treatment process at our Oxford practice involves:
- Creating a detailed digital model of your current teeth position and treatment plan
- Manufacturing a series of custom-made clear aligners, each slightly different from the last
- Wearing each aligner for approximately two weeks before progressing to the next in the series
- Regular check-ups every 4-6 weeks to monitor progress and receive new aligners
- Optional video consultations and postal delivery of your aligners for added convenience
- Treatment duration typically ranges from nine to fifteen months, depending on your specific case
Each aligner in the series will gradually move your teeth week by week until they reach the desired position, giving you the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted.
Benefits of Choosing Invisible Braces
Invisible braces offer numerous advantages over traditional metal braces:
- Practically Invisible: The clear aligners are virtually undetectable, allowing you to straighten your teeth discreetly without metal brackets or wires.
- Improved Oral Health: Since you can remove the aligners to clean your teeth, maintaining good oral hygiene is significantly easier compared to traditional braces.
- Greater Confidence: Continue smiling throughout your treatment without feeling self-conscious about visible metal braces.
- Removable Convenience: Unlike fixed braces, you can remove your aligners when eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing – or for special occasions.
- Enhanced Comfort: Without metal components that can irritate your gums and cheeks, invisible braces offer a more comfortable orthodontic experience.
- Minimal Lifestyle Impact: The discreet nature and removability of invisible braces mean minimal disruption to your daily activities and social life.
