Removable and near-invisible braces
While traditional braces are an effective solution for straightening teeth, you may be looking for a more discreet option. Everyone’s needs are different, and your orthodontist can recommend the most suitable, discreet solution for you. We offer a range of near-invisible and discreet braces to suit your needs.
Invisalign treatment
Invisalign treatment uses a series of transparent, custom-made aligners, sometimes referred to as retainers, that gradually straighten your teeth. There are no wires or brackets, and the aligners are removable so you can take them out when you need to eat or brush your teeth. Many patients find them more comfortable than traditional metal braces1.
Lingual braces
Lingual braces are also known as hidden braces because they’re attached to the inner surface of your teeth. They deliver the same, predictable results as traditional braces but are a more discreet option.
Six Month Smiles
Sometimes known as cosmetic teeth straightening, Six Month Smiles is a good option for those who have minor cosmetic issues. With this treatment, you can choose between clear aligners or fixed braces with clear brackets and tooth-coloured wires. The main benefit is that, if you’re suitable, you could have a straighter smile in as little as six months2.
Clear braces
Clear braces are also called ceramic braces. They’re fixed braces that are attached to the outside of your teeth, but use tooth-coloured brackets, which are less obvious than metal brackets.
This makes them a popular choice for both adults and teenagers.
