Not everyone is born with straight teeth and a good smile, but that is not to say that everyone cannot have them!
Although mostly worn by children and young adults, dental braces can provide the solution to crooked teeth and other issues for all ages, particularly today, with a variety of incredible, modern dental braces that need only be worn for a matter of weeks to deliver great results.
What types of problems can be fixed with dental braces?
There are a range of dental issues that can be addressed simply by wearing dental braces on your teeth for a relatively short period of time, with no surgical intervention:
Crowding of the teeth – teeth crowding is a common problem that can affect both the upper and lower teeth. Crowding can also lead to gum recession over time if not treated effectively, and can make brushing between the teeth difficult.
Spacing – many of us experience irregular spacing of our teeth with varying severity. Other issues that can arise as a direct result of spacing issues include posterior and anterior crossbite, which can lead to discomfort when eating, and can wear the teeth unevenly as we get older.
Bite issues – under, and overbite is also fairly common, and although most adults will suffer no immediate ill-effects from an uneven bite, it is an issue that can worsen as we age, causing problems with eating and uneven wear.
It is not uncommon to find patients that suffer from several of these issues simultaneously, with varying degrees of severity. Spacing and overbite, for example, can lead to gum problems and trouble eating as we get older.
Addressing these issues for a few weeks with a dental braces product can produce excellent results, deliver a comfortable, healthier mouth and a straighter smile for almost every patient.

Fastbraces
Fastbraces are a part of the next generation of dental braces, and, as the name suggests, they work quickly to help our patients with their smiles. As time is often at a premium for our patients, Fastbraces can deliver results within just 120 days, dependent upon the severity of the issue.
Designed, manufactured and tested in the US for more than two decades, Fastbraces are a popular, proven product for both patients and dental professionals as a non-surgical alternative to beautiful, straight teeth.
Inman Aligner
The Inman Aligner offers a removable, stand-alone treatment for periodontal issues, and can also be worn prior to cosmetic dentistry procedures to realign the teeth in preparation for dental veneers or bonding practices.
As the Inman Aligner works with tiny springs to gently guide the teeth into position, it works quickly over a wide range of movement, and can be predictably effective within 6-18 weeks with regular dental check-ups to monitor progress.
