Invisalign aligners

Invisalign has revolutionised Orthodontic Treatment, offering a virtually invisible way to straighten teeth. Instead of brackets and wires, Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners that fit snugly over your teeth.

Traditional Braces

Traditional Braces remain one of the most reliable and effective methods for comprehensive tooth movement. They consist of brackets bonded to the front surface of the teeth, connected by a wire. The wire is adjusted periodically to gently guide the teeth into their correct positions over time.

Why Consider Orthodontic Treatment?

Orthodontics is about more than just aesthetics. While a straight smile is undoubtedly appealing, correcting misalignment can significantly improve oral health and function. Issues like overcrowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites can lead to:

  • Difficulty cleaning teeth effectively increases the risk of decay and gum disease.
  • Abnormal wear on tooth surfaces.
  • Strain on the jaw muscles and joints, potentially leading to pain or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
  • Speech difficulties.
  • Reduced self-confidence due to the appearance of teeth.

Investing in Orthodontic Treatment at Millbank Dental Care in Westminster is an investment in long-term oral health and overall well-being.

The Orthodontic Journey at Millbank Dental Care

Your path to a straighter smile at our Dentist Westminster practice typically follows these steps:

  1. Initial Consultation: This is your first visit. We'll discuss your goals, perform a thorough oral examination, take photographs, X-rays, and possibly digital scans or impressions of your teeth. We'll assess your bite, bone structure, and overall oral health.
  2. Diagnosis and Treatment Planning: Based on the diagnostic records, we’ll develop a precise treatment plan. We'll discuss the findings with you, explain the recommended treatment options (Braces, Invisalign, etc.), the expected duration, costs, and answer all your questions.
  3. Active Treatment Phase:
    • For Braces: The braces are bonded to your teeth. You'll have regular appointments (usually every 4-8 weeks) for adjustments and progress checks.
    • For Invisalign: You receive your initial sets of aligners and instructions on how to wear and care for them. You'll have check-up appointments less frequently (typically every 6-8 weeks) to monitor progress and pick up new sets of aligners.
  4. Completion of Treatment: Once your teeth have reached their desired positions, the braces are removed, or you finish your final set of aligners. We take final records to document the results.
  5. Retention Phase: You will be fitted with retainers (fixed, removable, or both) and given instructions on how to wear and care for them. This crucial phase ensures your beautiful new smile lasts.

Orthodontic FAQs

Who is a candidate for Orthodontic Treatment?
Orthodontic treatment is suitable for children, teenagers, and adults. It can address issues ranging from simple crowding or spacing to more complex bite problems (malocclusions). A consultation at Millbank Dental Care will determine if orthodontics is right for you.
Is Orthodontic Treatment painful?
While there might be some discomfort or soreness for a few days after adjustments or switching to a new set of aligners, it is generally not painful. This discomfort is usually managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
How long does Orthodontic Treatment take?
Treatment duration varies greatly depending on the complexity of the case, the type of appliance used (Braces vs. Invisalign), and patient compliance (especially with removable aligners or elastics). Treatment can range from a few months for very minor corrections to 2-3 years for complex cases. We will provide a more accurate estimate during your consultation.
What's the main difference between Braces and Invisalign?

The aesthetic and functional differences are key. Braces are fixed appliances (brackets and wires) that are highly effective for complex movements but are visible and have dietary restrictions. Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners, offering discretion and ease of cleaning, but requires strict patient compliance with wear time.

How much does Orthodontic Treatment cost at your Westminster clinic?

The cost of orthodontic treatment varies based on the complexity of the case, the chosen treatment method (Braces, Invisalign, etc.), and the expected duration. Following your initial consultation and diagnosis, we will provide a detailed treatment plan and a transparent breakdown of the costs involved.
