Teeth straightening in Sheffield

How your teeth look can affect your self confidence, and making the decision to straighten your teeth can be exciting and a little daunting. You may be excited about having a new, straight smile, but concerned about how you will look while your teeth are changing.

At Portman Dental & Implant Clinic we offer discreet teeth straightening solutions, from near-invisible aligners to ceramic/tooth coloured brackets. No-one need know you are wearing braces, so you can keep smiling even through treatment.

    Retainers

    Retainers are used after you have had your teeth straightened to ensure that they remain in their new straight position. It essential that retainers are worn as recommended by your Portman Dental & Implant Clinic dentist, in order to ensure you continue to enjoy your new, straighter smile.

      Braces Treatment

      Fixed braces

From here you will receive a tailored treatment plan explaining your treatment options and costs. Every 6 - 8 weeks subsequent visits are required, allowing adjustments to be made, getting you one step closer to your dream smile.

        Why are my teeth not straight?

        There are many causes of overcrowding, gaps and crooked teeth. For some people it can be inherited or possibly acquired, either due to a habit (sucking of the thumb, prolonged use of a dummy), or because of the premature loss of milk teeth or adult teeth.

        What can be treated?

        Orthodontic treatments have evolved enormously over the last 20 years. Now problems such as gaps between the teeth, crowded teeth, overbite (upper teeth covering the majority of the lower ones), open bite (upper and lower teeth almost don’t touch) and cross bites can all be treated.

        What will the impact of orthodontic treatment be?

        Orthodontic problems can have a profound impact on a person and their social and professional life. Depending on the extent of a problem, you might even be too self-conscious to smile. Effective orthodontic treatment not only improves your appearance, but also goes a long way to improving your self-confidence.

        Should teeth be straightened for health reasons?

        The correction of poor dental positioning also improves oral hygiene, as crowded or crooked teeth are often hard to clean properly. With such an improvement, the risk of gum disease for example – which can result in loss of teeth in extreme cases – is prevented.

        What other benefits does teeth straightening offer?

        Orthodontic treatment improves chewing efficiency by re-establishing the correct relationship between lower and upper teeth, removing the difficulty you may have when chewing certain kinds of food, and so providing better nutrition.
