Invisible braces

What do I do if I don’t want braces?

If what’s holding you back from having your teeth straightened is that you don’t want traditional metal braces or braces fixed to your teeth that people can see, the great news is that those are no longer your only choices. There are 2 new options: 1) Virtually invisible braces, like Invisalign, which use transparent aligners; 2) Braces that are completely invisible, which fix to the back of your teeth.

Can you get invisible braces?

Here at Evolve we offer 2 different straightening systems for patients wishing to straighten their teeth discreetly. First, there’s Invisalign, a system which uses virtually invisible removable aligners which look like transparent gum shields to reposition teeth. Then there are 2 different lingual brace systems – MTM No Trace, Incognito – which are completely invisible because they’re fitted behind your teeth, so no-one can see them at all.

How do lingual invisible braces work?

Lingual braces work just like traditional fixed braces, applying constant gentle pressure to close gaps or fix crowded or twisted teeth. But the big difference is that the wires and brackets are fitted to the back of the teeth rather than to the front. So, nobody will be any the wiser, as they are truly invisible braces.

What are the benefits of Invisalign?

For those looking for discreet braces, Invisalign offers some key benefits: 1) No fixed wires or brackets; 2) Virtually invisible braces custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, so most people won’t realise you’re straightening your teeth and you can socialise, smile and talk as normal; 3) Removable clear aligners which you can take out not only for teeth cleaning but for special occasions, as long as it’s only for a couple of hours.

How long does it take to straighten teeth with invisible braces?

Invisible braces can take less time that you might imagine, with many treatments completing in around 6 months. Invisalign can take as little as 3 months, although typically takes up to 12-18 months. Treatment times for lingual braces range from 4 to 9 months for MTM No Trace or from 6 to 24 months for Incognito. As always, a lot comes down to case complexity.

If you’ve never visited Evolve before, here’s a little look around.

We know that walking into a new dental practice can feel daunting, particularly if it’s been a while since your last appointment.

We’ve designed Evolve to feel calm, welcoming and a little different from what you might expect from a dental practice.

But the most important part isn’t the building. It’s how you’re made to feel when you’re here.

Come in, make yourself comfortable in our patient lounge and let us look after you.

Gum disease can be surprisingly easy to overlook.

Bleeding when you brush, red or swollen gums, persistent bad breath or gums that seem to be receding are all things worth paying attention to.

The important thing is not to wait until something hurts. Gum disease can develop without causing pain, which is one reason regular dental and hygiene appointments matter.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the signs to look out for.

If you’ve noticed a change in your gums, mention it at your next appointment or get in touch with the team.

Ever run your tongue over your teeth and wonder why they suddenly feel rough?

There are a few possible reasons, from plaque build-up to changes in the surface of a tooth.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the common causes and when it’s worth mentioning it to your dentist.

Noticing small changes in your mouth is useful. You don’t need to diagnose them yourself, but do tell us if something feels different.
