Orthodontics and 6 Month Smiles

Orthodontics is a specialist form of dentistry which aims to straighten the teeth to produce a healthier bite and appearance. Although more and more adults are having braces, the majority of patients are children.

Most problems are caused by crowding which is traditionally treated by extraction of healthy teeth.
There is an alternative…non-extraction orthodontics.

David’s belief is that it is not just genetic make up, but our modern diet, dummies and the prolonged use of bottles in infants which can cause crowding.
By gently expanding the jaws to make the teeth fit as nature intended, this avoids the need to extract healthy teeth. This is best treated early, as soon as the adult teeth start to come through. Normally if the space is made, the adult teeth erupt into good positions as nature is given a chance to catch up.

In teenagers and adults, fixed braces are normally used as there is a range of tooth positioning that can be carried out to get that perfect smile. David uses the latest low friction brackets and the latest nickel titanium wires which change shape when they reach body temperature. This combination results in shorter treatment times compared to traditional fixed orthodontics.

With over 60 completed cases, David is now the only dentist in the North East of England to provide this treatment using tooth coloured braces to straighten teeth in an average of only 6 months.

Now here! 6 months smiles - clear braces to straighten adult teeth in only 6 months.

So a beautiful smile is just 6 months away

Most adults are unhappy with the appearance of their smiles. Crooked teeth make many people feel self-conscious, reserved or even ashamed of their appearance. Now adults all over the county can smile bigger and brighter than ever after wearing braces for only six months!

By focusing on the teeth that show when you smile and not making significant bite changes your dentist can comfortably straighten your teeth and give you the attractive pleasant smile you’ve always wanted.
