Traditional orthodontic braces treatment in Wanaka
Traditional braces are a highly effective and reliable orthodontic treatment option that have been used for decades to correct misaligned teeth and improve dental health. Consisting of metal or white ceramic brackets and wires, these braces work by gradually moving your teeth into their proper position over time. Modern braces are smaller, more discreet and more comfortable than ever before. With modern digital planning, results are more predictable, stable and achieved in less time.
Traditional braces are a versatile option for a wide range of orthodontic problems and are typically recommended for children and teenagers.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners that is designed to straighten your teeth while remaining virtually invisible. Invisalign/Clear aligners are made from a material that is clear, flexible and comfortable to wear. They are removable and designed to be changed every week or two, and gradually move teeth to the desired positions.
There are several quality clear aligner systems available, however, Invisalign was the first to hit the market and is one of the most popular and widely recognised brands used today.
The experienced dentists at Bespoke Smiles Wanaka have used many clear aligner systems including: Invisalign, Clear Correct, Angel Aligners, Smile Styler, Spark, SureSmile, and Coast Aligners.
The benefits of straight teeth
Getting your teeth straight offers a range of benefits for both oral health and appearance. Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Improved bite functionality allows for better chewing and speaking. Additionally, aligning teeth decreases the likelihood of dental damage from accidents. Straightening your teeth can alleviate jaw pain and headaches associated with misalignment. Best of all, a straight and attractive smile enhances self-confidence, while improved facial harmony adds to overall aesthetics.

No, orthodontic treatment is not limited to children and teenagers. Adults can also benefit from orthodontic treatment to improve their smile and dental health. In fact, over 30% of orthodontic treatment is on adults.
The length of orthodontic treatment varies depending on the severity of the misalignment and the type of treatment being used. Treatment can take anywhere from several months to a few years.
Orthodontic treatment may cause some discomfort and soreness, especially after adjustments. However, modern orthodontic techniques and materials have made the process much more comfortable and less painful than in the past.
