What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a speciality of dentistry that is primarily concerned with the treatment of malocclusions (improper bites).
What are malocclusions?
In orthodontics, a person’s bite (the way the teeth and jaws fit together) is referred to as an occlusion; therefore, when the bite becomes improper, it is referred to as a malocclusion. Malocclusions are often the result of tooth irregularity and/or disproportionate jaw relationships. Orthodontic treatment is well known for its use in modifying both improper teeth and jaw patterns for people of all ages.
Why Harley Street Dental Clinic?
Harley Street Dental Clinic offers first-rate orthodontic care to the greater London area. Our specialist orthodontist, Dr. Sarah Neale, has been practicing orthodontics for over twenty years. For the past five years she has been giving exceptional care to Harley Street Dental Clinic patients.
As an orthodontist at Harley Street Dental Clinic, Dr. Neale gives high quality orthodontic treatment to both adults and children in a relaxed environment. She understands that many of her orthodontic patients may have severe dental anxiety, and many of her patients may be in pain; therefore, Dr. Neale works expertly to minimise such problems. She establishes rapport with her patients to ease dental anxiety, and through her advanced care, Dr. Neale is able to offer pain free treatment and virtually pain free dentistry.
When people think of orthodontics, they often think simply of braces. Here at Harley Street Dental Clinic we offer several different teeth straightening systems. These include Invisalign (clear, removable “braces”), Lingual braces (on the inside, not the outside!), Porcelain braces (tooth coloured) and Inman Aligner Clear Aligner. Additionally, we offer an extensive range of other orthodontic work, including oral surgery for the relief of jaw pain. While oral surgery is usually the last step taken, when we believe it is necessary we can offer oral surgery at the Cromwell Hospital. There, all required facilities will be available, and we can administer a general anaesthetic to further ease dental anxiety and provide pain free dentistry.
