Invisible braces vs. Clear Wired Braces

As a leading dental practice, we understand that every patient has unique needs and preferences when it comes to orthodontic treatment. That’s why we offer these two great options for those who want to straighten their teeth: Invisible aligners and clear wired train track braces.

In this blog post, we’ll explore the key differences between these two treatments and help you decide which one is right for you.

Invisible aligners: The ultimate discreet option

Invisible braces, also known as clear aligners, are an excellent choice for those who want to straighten their teeth without drawing attention to their orthodontic treatment. These braces are made of clear plastic, and they are custom-made to fit your teeth precisely. You’ll receive a series of aligners that gradually move your teeth into the desired position.

One of the biggest advantages of invisible braces is that they are virtually invisible. Most people won’t even realise you’re wearing them. Additionally, these braces are removable, which means you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss to suit your lifestyle. This makes it easy to maintain good oral hygiene and eat the foods you love.

Clear wired train track braces

Clear wired train track braces are an excellent choice for those who want a durable and reliable orthodontic treatment that is still discreet. These braces work in much the same way as traditional metal braces, but the brackets and wires are made of clear or tooth-coloured materials.

They can treat more severe cases of misalignment and can produce results more quickly than invisible braces. Plus, they are bonded to your teeth so you don’t have to worry about losing them or misplacing them.

Let’s compare the two treatments

When it comes to choosing between invisible braces and our Six Month Smile braces, it really comes down to personal preference and the specific needs of your case. Here are some key differences to consider:

  • Appearance: Invisible braces are virtually invisible, while clear wired train track braces are discreet but still visible.
  • Durability: Clear wired train track braces are more durable than invisible braces.
  • Treatment time: Invisible braces can take longer to produce results than our clear wired train track braces.
  • Removability: Our clear aligners can be taken out to eat, but our Six Month Smile braces are bonded to your teeth throughout the treatment process.

Ultimately, both treatments have their advantages. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have and help you choose the treatment that best meets your needs.
