Are You a Suitable Candidate for Clear Aligners in Stockton Brook?
Clear aligners handle a broad range of mild to moderate issues — crowding, spacing, crossbite, overbite and underbite. Complex skeletal problems or severely rotated teeth may be better suited to fixed braces.
They don't suit mouths with active gum disease or unmanaged missing teeth, and compliance is the deciding factor for many teenage cases.
The reliable way to confirm suitability is a consultation with an orthodontist in Stockton Brook. Many practices offer a free initial assessment or photo-based screening to give you a preliminary view before you book.
