Orthodontics is a unique area of dentistry that specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of teeth which may be crooked, over crowded or causing difficulties when biting. Beneficial at any age, tooth alignment treatment usually lasts between 12 and 18 months and is available in a choice of treatment alternatives, depending on your individual requirements and budget.
If you have considered getting your teeth straightened, but have been put off by the thought of wearing a “traditional” brace; the new Clearstep® clear braces provide a comfortable, effective and barely noticeable solution.
What is Clearstep?
Clearstep is an exciting new, invisible, easy to wear, comfortable, and above all, affordable orthodontic system. The system is used in thousands of clinics in the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, South Africa, Israel, and across Europe. Its popularity is growing at an incredible rate. All you have to do is wear a series of clear wafer thin transparent aligners - which then gently guide your teeth from their present to the desired position.
Who does it work for?
Clearstep is the only system of clear positioners in the world that can treat young children and adults alike. The system has been designed to be infinitely flexible and can deal with the loss of baby teeth, the eruption of new teeth and pretty much any variable.
Clearstep treats:
-
Crowding - teeth are too close together
-
Spacing - gaps between teeth
-
Overbite - teeth overlap too much vertically
-
Overjet - front teeth stick out
-
Underbite - lower teeth stick out/lower jaw too big
-
Crossbite - upper and lower teeth bite on the wrong side of each other
-
Openbite - your teeth do not meet when you bite
-
Misplaced midline - centre lines of upper and lower teeth don’t align
Why Clearstep?
As a system, Clearstep is able to provide optimum results through it’s unique level of flexibility, and through the way that treatment can be tailored so specifically to suit each individual case.
By allowing you and your dentist to keep a track of how your treatment is progressing, the Clearstep system allows for ongoing alterations and change direction to be made at any stage.
Also, as a wire free system, Clearstep does away with the need to bond metal onto the teeth. It is invisible, and removable, allowing you, the wearer, to eat that steak dinner, give that public speech, meet that client without embarrassment or discomfort. You simply remove, brush, floss, rinse and re-insert; treatment really is that easy.
What are the benefits?
- Confidence- in job interviews, public speaking and personal
relationships.
- Clearer speech - teeth play an important role in your ability to speak.
- Teeth that are straight and evenly spaced are easier to keep clean. So that means better oral health. Better oral health can reduce
the incidence of heart disease, gastrointestinal disease, and other health conditions.
- A well balanced and even bite also reduces the risks of excessive
stress, headaches, and strain on your supporting bone and tissue.
