From traditional braces to cutting-edge clear aligners, we will cover all the bases so you can make an informed decision about what's best for you.
Traditional metal braces use brackets and wires to apply constant pressure on your teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired position. Sure, they may not be the most fashionable accessory, but hey, they get the job done – and isn't that what matters most?
Ceramic braces work similarly to traditional braces but use tooth-coloured brackets and wires for a more discreet look. Because who says you can't straighten your teeth and look fabulous at the same time?
Lingual braces are placed on the inside of your teeth, making them virtually invisible to the outside world. It's like having a secret weapon in the battle for straight teeth – and we won't tell if you don't!
Clear aligners are the modern, sleek alternative to braces. These custom-made, removable trays are designed to be worn over your teeth, gently nudging them into place over time. They're virtually invisible, comfortable, and best of all, you can take them out to eat and brush your teeth.
