Instant Orthodontics
Many people want straighter teeth. Unfortunately, crooked teeth are just a consequence of age or genetics. Most of the options for straightening teeth are not desirable for one reason or another though. Traditional orthodontics (braces) are especially undesirable. People avoid braces because:
- They don't want the embarrassment of visible braces
- They don't want the trouble of keeping braces clean
- They don't want the inconvenience of multiple adjustment appointments
- They don't want the pain of braces
- They don't want to wait years for straighter teeth
- They don't want to have to wear a retainer for the rest of their life
If you have avoided orthodontics for any or all of these reasons, now you can get straighter teeth without any of these disadvantages through instant orthodontics.
Instant orthodontics is the name for a procedure that makes your teeth straight without the use of braces or even the so-called clear braces known as Invisalign. Instead of months or years, your teeth can be straighter in just a few weeks.
How is this possible? For many people, crookedness in your teeth is only superficial, enough to leave unsightly gaps and misalignments, but not enough to really require the kind of movement performed by traditional orthodontics. Instead, most people can get sufficient straightening in the teeth by the use of porcelain veneers.
In this procedure, your crooked teeth are prepared to receive the porcelain veneers, then the veneers are crafted to give your smile an appearance that matches what you imagine it should be. When the veneers are put in place, you will have straighter, whiter teeth that are fully functional, and they don't require a retainer to keep them in place.
If you are interested in getting straighter, whiter teeth in weeks without the discomfort and inconvenience of traditional braces, please contact The Art of Smilemaking today to set up your complimentary Instant Orthodontics consultation.
