How To Fix Unsightly Space Between Teeth

Our case of the month involves closing a space in between the upper front teeth. Spaces can be unsightly especially at the front of the mouth. However, we have the techniques to close the space discreetly, quickly and affordably. Just have a look at our before and after photos:

Space closed, even teeth, straight teeth

The space was closed in matter of a few months using a discreet brace. Modern dentistry allows us to use tooth coloured braces rather than the dreaded metal braces. There are even braces that can be fitted to the inside of the teeth! Treatment completed by Dr Nissit Patel. Any unauthorised reproduction of the photographs is strictly prohibited.

Invisalign Comprehensive for severe crowding

Our case of the month for February is a fantastic one which highlights the extent of the versatility of the Invisalign system. It truly is a replacement for fixed braces with many benefits. In the past, it was correct to say that certain cases could not be treated with Invisalign and that fixed ( train track) braces were the only option. However, times change, technology advances and the advent of digital dentistry has changed the landscape of dental care.… CONTINUE READING
