Treatment time with cosmetic braces in Victoria can be similar to that with traditional metal braces, typically ranging from 12 to 24 months. But the exact duration depends on how severe the misalignment is.
A Look at Our Cosmetic Braces
We believe a confident smile shouldn't come at the expense of comfort or lifestyle. Here's a glimpse at the options we provide:
1. Achieve a Straighter Smile Faster
Experience the thrill of faster results with SPEED braces! This innovative technology utilizes reduced friction brackets to shorten your treatment time compared to traditional braces.
Since these braces work a little faster, exceptional brushing and flossing are crucial to prevent cavities and gum disease. Ask your orthodontist for the best cleaning tools suited to your specific needs.
While enjoying most foods, avoid hard or sticky items that could damage the brackets. Opt for softer alternatives or cut them into smaller pieces.
2. Discreet Comfort for a Confident Smile
Enjoy a more subtle approach to straightening your smile with clear ceramic braces. These tooth-coloured brackets blend naturally with your pearly whites, making them popular with image-conscious adults and teens.
Coffee, tea, red wine, and certain curries can stain the brackets. Practice moderation and rinse thoroughly after consuming them.
Meticulous oral hygiene is essential. Brushing after every meal and flossing daily prevent staining and keep teeth looking their best.
3. The Clear Choice for Freedom and Convenience
This innovative system employs a set of transparent, personalized aligners that gradually move your teeth into their proper positions. Invisalign™ allows easy removal during meals and brushing, making it the perfect choice for maintaining oral hygiene.
To get the best results, wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours each day.
4. The Invisible Path to a Perfect Smile
Experience the ultimate in discreet tooth alignment with Incognito™ braces. These revolutionary braces are placed behind the teeth, making them completely invisible from the front.
Since cleaning behind the braces can be trickier, avoid hard or sticky foods that might get lodged.
These braces require a more diligent flossing routine. Speak to your orthodontist to recommend specialized flossing tools for optimal hygiene.
