Harley Street in London has a longstanding history as being one of the city’s most respected areas for receiving top-quality medical or dental work. Here at Harley Street Dental Clinic, for over thirty years we’ve been committed to providing the residents of the surrounding area and beyond with a standard of excellence and professionalism within cosmetic dentistry that is befitting of our historic location. We believe that each patient is unique, and that as such no two treatments are the exact same. Rather than adopting the one-size-fits-all approach that is favoured by a great many practices across the city, we offer a more bespoke, tailored dental service which is altered to fit the specific needs and requirements of each individual patient. Treatment from us here at Harley Street Dental Clinic only begins after lengthy informal, friendly consultations have taken place – which cover the basics of the procedures available, and why they are best suited to the patient’s needs. Patients here have the ability to choose which practitioner they feel the most comfortable with and would like to receive treatment from – and only once they feel comfortable does the process begin.
Hidden wonders
Some cosmetic dental treatments we offer which are widely popular are our range of orthodontics, invisalign, clear braces and invisible braces in Harley Street. Dental aligners such as Invisalign and invisible braces. These are a cosmetic alternative to conventional orthodontic methods – such as typical fused metal ‘train-track’ braces, which are often largely uncomfortable and negatively affect the outward appearance of their users. Invisalign a revolutionary, non-invasive alternative to traditional orthodontics, which replaces the need for fused metal brackets with a removable plastic retainer. This custom made retainer, constructed from a patented SmartTrack plastic – chosen for its uniquely durable, yet malleable nature – utilises built in pressure points to gradually align the patient’s teeth to their correct specifications. Prior to beginning Invisalign treatment, our team of dental practitioners take patients through each stage of the process and detail what they can expect the results to be. The length of treatment with Invisalign depends on the severity of each case, but typically lasts around twelve months. When it is worn, the plastic removable retainer is practically invisible – which affords users the ability to undertake essential dental realignment, without attracting any unwanted attention from peers or colleagues. Another benefit of the Invisalign process over conventional orthodontics is that – unlike fused braces – the retainer is removable, and as such treatment can be carried out at a time that is convenient to the patient, such as when sleeping or at home.
Discreetly supportive
Another form of discreet orthodontics we offer here at Harley Street Dental Clinic, is the installation of clear and invisible braces. Similar to conventional metal braces, clear braces are fused to the front of a patient’s teeth and consist of wires and sockets. The primary difference however, is that clear braces are constructed from a clear plastic alloy, which makes clear braces far less visible or easy to detect. As such, patients can find their self-esteem and confidence boosted while undergoing treatment as they can do so without attracting any unwanted attention. Incognito braces are another, similar form of discreet cosmetic orthodontics available here at Harley Street Dental Clinic. These are constructed from metal brackets and fused to the patient’s teeth. However they differ from other methods of orthodontic alignment as they are fixed to the back of a patient’s teeth and are obscured from view from the front. Treatment of this nature can be massively beneficial in boosting the self-confidence and esteem of those seeking discreetly to achieve a straighter smile.
