Teeth straightening

Serving patients throughout Ipswich, Colchester, Bury St Edmunds and Sudbury

Never before have there been so many ways to have your teeth straightened.

Teeth straightening is a dental specialism known as Orthodontics. Using fixed braces or removable aligners, teeth are slowly and precisely moved to achieve a beautifully aligned smile.

Dentists and Orthodontists have been straightening teeth for decades, but a lot has changed in that time. Traditional fixed braces will always be a fantastic way to straighten teeth, but advances in technology have now introduced a range of discreet alternatives. From clear removable aligners, clear fixed braces to invisible wires hidden behind the teeth, these aesthetic options have seen a huge rise in the number of adults seeking straighter teeth.

Orthodontic treatment is most often used to improve the appearance and alignment of crooked, protruding or crowded teeth, and to correct problems with the bite of the teeth. Whether you have mild crowding or a complex bite problem, our teeth straightening dentist Betzael, can help you to achieve your perfect smile.

At Hadleigh Dental Surgery in Hadleigh we offer the following teeth straightening options:

  • Invisalign
  • Fixed braces

Treatment times vary depending on your individual alignment needs. For simple cases this could be just a few months, but for more complex movements, it usually takes between 12 months and two years to achieve your beautiful new smile. Betzael will give you an idea of how long your teeth straightening treatment may take during your initial consultation.

Benefits of dental braces or clear aligners from Hadleigh Dental Surgery in Hadleigh

  • Dramatically improve the appearance of your smile and potentially provide a life-changing confidence boost.
  • Improve the way your teeth function and bite together – they can even help some speech problems.
  • Straighter teeth provide food and plaque with fewer places to hide, making it easier for you to keep your smile clean and healthy.
  • If you follow aftercare advice and wear your retainers, your results can last a lifetime.

Am I suitable for teeth straightening?

Your teeth and gums need to be healthy before you can start treatment. If you have any implants, crowns, bridges, or veneers you can still wear braces, we can usually work around them.

I was referred by my dentist for specialist root canal and crown work. The building creates a relaxed atmosphere for a dental surgery, the staff all very friendly and the treatment provided by Gurps Singh was excellent and empathetic. All round, excellent.

I have been coming to this surgery for around 30 years and have every faith in Mr Wilson. Like most patients visiting the dentist is not my favourite but Mr Wilson always puts me at ease and fully explains what is going to happen which makes me a little less anxious. My plan is to move my husband to the practice at some point in the near future.
