Aligners or Braces in Green Street East?

Aligners win on aesthetics and convenience; braces win on being hands-off. Fixed appliances work continuously without relying on you remembering to put anything back in.

For complex movements — large rotations, significant overbite correction, extraction cases — fixed braces tend to be more predictable. For mild-to-moderate cases, well-fitted aligners deliver comparable results with more comfort.

Are You a Suitable Candidate for Clear Aligners in Green Street East?

Most everyday alignment problems are within scope. The exceptions are severe rotations, big bite corrections and skeletal cases, where braces give more predictable control.

Aligners are also unsuitable with untreated gum disease, significant missing teeth without a plan, or where daily wear is likely to be inconsistent. Teenagers who may struggle with wear hours can do better in braces.

The reliable way to confirm suitability is a consultation with an orthodontist in Green Street East. Many practices offer a free initial assessment or photo-based screening to give you a preliminary view before you book.
