Who is eligible for invisible braces?
Patients are eligible for invisible braces when all their baby teeth have fallen out. If you’re looking for a treatment for children and younger teenagers with misaligned or crowded teeth, you will more likely need to rely on the traditional metal braces with brackets and wires.
However, an invisible braces treatment is a fantastic choice for anyone from older children to adults with a fully developed set of teeth who wants a more discreet way to straighten their smile.
This type of orthodontic treatment is usually reserved for more mature patients, as the treatment plans require the patient to be fully committed to participating in the treatment.
If you are interested in invisible braces for adults or children, book your initial consultation with Dr Geoffrey Wexler. Only a trained orthodontist Melbourne can make the judgement call as to whether your condition will benefit from orthodontic treatment.The various types of invisible braces
Within the world of invisible and traditional braces, there are plenty of options to understand and choose from.
How much do invisible braces cost? It’ll depend on which type you choose. Ceramic braces, lingual braces, and clear aligner treatment are all standard forms of invisible braces. Dr Wexler can advise on what the options are for your specific circumstances and how you can choose the treatment that best suits you.
Ceramic braces work in the same way as traditional braces, but they can be made tooth-coloured so they don’t stand out so much in your mouth. However, ceramic braces is still less “invisible” than lingual braces or clear aligners. These two types of teeth straightening solutions take the therapy to the next level by rendering it almost undetectable.
