While it may seem odd to categorise braces as a cosmetic dental\noption, if you have a slightly crooked smile or are fed up with gaps, then\nthere are many cosmetic aligners that can help you get the straighter smile you\ndeserve. Perfect!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, before you rush in to book a dental appointment, it is\nworth noting that, like most things in life, some of these braces are not\nsuitable for everyone. While the list of exclusion criteria is short for many\nadult orthodontic treatments, it is worth having a rough idea of what type of\nbrace is best suited to reverse your misalignment prior to booking a consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/\">Clear Braces Direct in London<\/a>, our team of cosmetic dentists\nis proud to be able to offer our patients one of the most popular invisible\nbraces available, Invisalign. An invisible brace that offers an accelerated\ntreatment time, Invisalign is an effective brace that reverses a wide array of\ndental misalignments and is discreet enough to not affect your confidence.\nBrilliant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what are some of the inclusion criteria for Invisalign at <strong>Clear Braces Direct in London<\/strong>? Read on to find out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Oral health<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, before you can undertake treatment with this\ninvisible aligner with our team at <strong>Clear Braces Direct in London<\/strong>,\nyou will have to have the green light in relation to your dental health. Any\nunderlying issues that you may have, such as tooth decay or gum disease will\nneed to be treated before any cosmetic treatments can take place, so best to\nmake sure that your pearly whites are, well, pearly white!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Clinical presentation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Invisalign can help reverse the majority of minor to\nmoderate dental issues, it is more suited to treating some over others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a smile that is full of gaps or is overcrowded,\nthen our team is more likely to suggest Invisalign to correct these issues.\nSimilarly, malocclusions such as over or underbites can be reversed with this\nbrace, but it will depend on the severity of the condition presented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Commitment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Invisalign is a versatile brace, but in order to benefit from\nit, you have to be committed to the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Invisalign braces are removable, so you can remove them as and\nwhen you desire. If our team is concerned that you are unlikely to wear it for\nthe required time per day, then you may not be suited to them; this is a\nprimary reason why this particular brace is not recommended for children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the only way to know for certain if you are suitable\nfor treatment with Invisalign is to undertake a consultation with our team. We\nhave helped thousands of patients straighten their smile with Invisalign, and\nyour smile could be next! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the modern world, dentistry has evolved far beyond a biannual check-up or a scale and polish.
