Teeth straightening

Invisalign uses custom made clear aligners, which fit comfortably over your teeth. The great attraction is that the aligners are nearly invisible, and can be removed for important occasions or when eating. The treatment itself is straightforward. The aligners work in a similar way to other types of braces, applying pressure gently to your teeth over a period of time until they are moved into a straight position.

Clear braces are a fixed brace, using ceramic brackets which blend in with your natural teeth.

Fixed metal braces are fitted permanently until the desired straightening of teeth is achieved.  

Retainers are used after you have had your teeth straightened to ensure that they remain in their new straight position. It's essential that retainers are worn as recommended by your Peterborough Orthodontic Centre orthodontist, in order to ensure you continue to enjoy your new, straighter smile.

For under 18's with severe tooth prominence or crowding, NHS orthodontic treatment may be available.
