What treatments do you provide?
There are some common dental treatments we provide such as bridges, crowns, fillings, root canal treatments, scaling and polishing, and of course orthodontics which include Invisalign W1
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a treatment method used to remedy misaligned teeth. These Invisalign W1 aligners often work faster than traditional braces and can be obtained at a similar cost. This treatment option can take as little as six months.
First, you should meet with your dentist to scan your mouth and map out a customised treatment plan for you as an individual. Then the braces will be manufactured to very detailed specifications so that they fit snugly over your teeth. Invisalign W1 is almost invisible when worn, therefore you don’t have to worry about any impact on your appearance. You can own a beautiful smile and be confident in yourself.
These aligners are easy to remove when eating and cleaning your teeth and also require fewer visits to the dentist. They will alter the aesthetics of your mouth so that you no longer feel self-conscious about smiling in photographs. Everyone knows the value of a wholesome looking mouth and good dental aesthetics also play a role in maintaining good dental health.
