One of the most common dental problems amongst the adult population of the UK is having crooked or misaligned teeth, this can lead to the development of other oral health issues and complications. Many of us may have needed our teeth aligning in our teenage years, but may have avoided having the treatment for one reason or another.

The common misconception many of us may start to believe as adults is that we have missed out on the opportunity to receive the alignment treatment we need, but this may not be the case. Neel Dentistry is now offering a treatment known as Invisalign in Welwyn to adult clients who are looking for alignment treatment.

By offering Invisalign in Welwyn, we are bringing the latest in state-of-the-art brace technology into the area we serve, allowing our community to take advantage of it and gain the healthy, fully functioning teeth that they need and want. This not only increases the oral health of the community, but also helps to boost the overall health and well-being of the area.

Invisalign – a different kind of brace

In the past when we thought of braces, we may have pictured a set of teeth that appeared to be covered in wire and metal. This was an off-putting image in our minds, that led to many not receiving the tooth alignment treatment they may have needed in their youth. One of the reasons often quoted as a contributing factor for this was the fear of being ridiculed or bullied at a stage in our lives where we feel at our most vulnerable, our adolescent years.

But now, new technology can change all of this. We now have aligners that are practically invisible to the human eye when in place, meaning someone can be looking straight at your face when you are talking to them and they should not notice you are wearing an aligner.

The Invisalign system comprises custom-made aligners, that are moulded to fit the individual patient, and are changed every two weeks. Each of the aligners in your course of treatment is designed to slowly move the position of your teeth until the desired effect is achieved, it will normally take twelve to eighteen months to achieve the results. Most of our patients report little to no discomfort while receiving treatment, as well as expressing joy with the outcome of the treatment.

These aligners are also removable, meaning you can eat and drink normally while undergoing treatment.

Improve your oral health

For many with crooked teeth, there are increased risks of other oral health issues developing, from gum disease to tooth loss. In some cases, there could also be the feeling of a lack of strength or power in the bite, making eating problematic. Having your teeth aligned correctly can alleviate all these issues, leading to an overall improvement in the quality of someone’s health and life.
