If the glove fits, wear it

Have you ever owned a pair of soft leather gloves that fit so perfectly, they feel they were custom-made just for your hands? Did you know you can have the same experience for your teeth? Invisalign braces are 3D printed, creating a brace that fits like a glove. As your local orthodontist in Hampshire, Winchester Orthodontics can provide this innovative treatment for you, creating invisible braces that won’t spoil your smile.


How Invisalign works


Your orthodontist in Hampshire will take 3D images of your mouth. These images are then used to 3D print a series of clear braces, following a precise treatment plan. Each brace in your treatment series will create a small, incremental adjustment until your desired result is acquired. Because this clear brace only requires the perfect fit to keep it in place, gone are the traditional wires or ‘train-track’ brace face. There are other practical advantages as well as invisibility. Because Invisalign braces require no wires you can easily remove them to brush and floss your teeth. You won’t ever have to try and get bits of food from out of your brace, maintaining perfect oral health.


The finer details


The whole treatment will take between 12-18 months. Over that time, you will come to see us every 6-8 weeks. We will check that the desired changes are happening and provide you with the next series of aligners.


So how do I get my hands on a pair?


Booking an appointment with your orthodontist in Hampshire couldn’t be easier. All you need to do is ring for your free consultation. We will assess you for the treatment and answer any of your questions. Invisalign clear braces only work on some tooth misalignment issues, so they may not be the right treatment for you. However, our highly professional orthodontists can offer you a range of alternatives and will always guide you to your perfect fit. If Invisalign can work for you, we’ll set up your first appointment to take that 3D image and get working on creating your custom-made Invisalign clear brace series, providing you with your tooth glove experience.
