We get this question asked a lot. More than likely, yes. There are times where we have no choice but to resort to both options. If teeth are so misaligned we must first move them gently into position before veneering them. Only with careful analysis of tooth proportions and jaw dimensions are we able to determine that for certain. We have been able to help so many people who had absolutely refused braces without compromising the end result. Braces are not for everyone either. For various reasons sometimes braces would not even be the right choice to make a smile beautiful.

Certainly! Sometimes the solution may be as simple as recontouring and reshaping the teeth which can be done very quickly. Other times braces may be required to correct things, these could be traditional fixed braces, lingual appliances or even Invisalign. Cases of buck teeth may also be corrected with porcelain veneers/crowns and in some instances we may to do a combination of repositioning of teeth (with brace work) and then placing some veneers. As each situation is unique, we’ll have a better idea of the answer for you after a consultation. Call or email us to arrange this today!

Often with Invisalign teeth need attachments. These are usually needed on teeth that need that little bit more movement, and they help the Invisalign aligner grip onto the tooth in order to get it into place.

Attachments are just a little bit of white filling material placed onto the surface of your tooth that can easily be removed without any damage once you have finished your treatment. We ensure to pick the same colour as your own tooth so as little as possible is noticable.

Each aligner should be worn at all times day and night, they should only be removed when eating and drinking.

This way you’ll have your straight teeth in next to no time at all!!
