Invisalign®

Invisalign is a teeth straightening process that involves the use of transparent plastic aligners to gently adjust your teeth. Invisalign is virtually invisible, making it the perfect choice for those concerned about the bulky or distracting appearance of braces.

Fixed braces

Fixed braces are one of the most popular ways to align teeth. They consist of several parts that work together to move teeth into their ideal positions. These include brackets, bands, wires, and ligatures. Brackets are attached to each tooth, and bands secure the brackets around the molars. Wires are then threaded through the brackets, and ligatures hold the wires in place.

Fixed braces work by applying continuous and controlled pressure on teeth over time. The pressure induces bone remodeling and helps teeth move into their desired positions. The expert dentist  adjust the wires during regular appointments to help guide tooth alignment effectively.

There are three types of fixed braces: metal, ceramic, and lingual. Metal braces are made of stainless steel and are durable and resistant to staining. Ceramic braces feature tooth-colored brackets and are slightly more prone to staining than metal braces. Lingual braces have brackets and wires that are placed on the back (lingual) side of the teeth and are virtually invisible from the front.

Fixed braces are highly effective in treating complex misalignments and severe cases. They provide precise control over tooth movement and predictable outcomes. The expert dentist can predict and plan treatment outcomes more accurately with fixed braces, offering a reliable solution for achieving desired results. Fixed braces are also versatile and can be customized based on the specific needs of each patient. Compared to some alternative treatments, fixed braces are often more cost-effective.

In conclusion, fixed braces are still an important part of orthodontic treatment. They offer a reliable and effective method for achieving optimal teeth alignment. With advancements in materials and techniques, these braces provide versatility, predictability, and cost-effectiveness. Individuals considering orthodontic treatment should consult with the expert dentist in West Auckland to explore whether fixed braces are the most suitable option for their unique dental needs.

Self Ligating Braces

Self-ligating braces are similar to conventional braces without the elastic bands or metal ties. Because they offer increased comfort and freedom of movement, self-ligating braces are a great alternative to traditional braces.

Invisalign or Self Ligating Braces?

  • Modern dentistry has brought a great range of treatment options for those wishing to straighten their teeth. If youre deciding between Invisalign and self-ligating braces, there are some important factors to consider. 
  • As the most discrete method of straightening teeth, Invisalign is a great choice for those concerned about the appearance of braces. With Invisalign, you also wont experience any discomfort from metal brackets and wires. However, you will need to remove your aligner before eating and ensure it remains clean.  
  • Self-ligating braces can be more effective at treating complex dental issues, such as teeth that need to be completely rotated. While you can eat with self-ligating braces, some patients may experience some discomfort.

Testimonials

I first went to Titirangi dental in Feb 2022 with a terrible tooth ache. Luke and the team not only helped me get that tooth back to good health but have worked closely with me on gum issues since. I like that Luke talks me through each step before, during and after which helps me stay informed. I also appreciate the they provide options for treatment. I avoided dentists for my whole adult life to my own detriment. Each time I went in, it left me not feeling the best and they didn’t take a holistic approach but that has changed now.

Amazing clinic with a great team, the friendly receptionist and supportive team makes my dental visit comfortable experience. Morgan Scanlan, she is an amazing dental hygienist, she is caring and kind. Dr Luke Simpson is very professional and respectful, he handles patient with a great patience and caring. Dr Luke Simpson did such an amazing job on my teeth. Their practice is equipped with latest technology for all dental procedure. Highly impressed with the dental service I received from the team. Highly recommended dental service for all your dental needs.
