Times have dramatically changed for the better when it comes to orthodontic treatment options that allow patients to achieve straighter teeth without the need for braces. Many adults would like to correct what may be lifelong orthodontic concerns, but they don’t pursue treatment because they are wary about having noticeable metal brackets and wires on their teeth. Thankfully, braces are not the only effective options available. In fact, our dentist here at Sutra Dental Spa offers an array of procedures that can give you a more beautiful smile without visible signs that you’re having orthodontic treatment performed.
The most popular discreet orthodontic treatment we offer is the innovative Invisalign® system. Invisalign® is designed to correct teeth misalignment and bite irregularities with the use of clear plastic aligners. These custom-designed aligners can gently and gradually move the teeth into better alignment, and often take less time to achieve optimal results when compared with other orthodontic techniques. Teeth crowding, excessive spaces and gaps between the teeth, and other mild to moderate orthodontic concerns can often be addressed with Invisalign®. The aligners are virtually invisible, and are removable for eating, drinking, and performing your daily oral hygiene routines.
Another option that can serve as a good alternative to braces for some patients is porcelain veneers treatment. Porcelain veneers are cosmetic restorations that are custom-tailored to provide a precise fit and natural-looking appearance. For the right patient, porcelain veneers can be effective ways of “masking” signs of gaps and mild cases of misalignment. This option does not require ongoing treatment; instead, porcelain veneers procedures can typically be completed in just two appointments. Porcelain veneers can provide the teeth with a straighter, more uniform appearance with results that last decades.
