Smiling is a natural reaction that happens when we’re happy, excited, or just in a good mood.

But did you know that for a number of people in the UK, smiling can cause anxiety and low self-esteem?

In a recent study, it was found that one in five British adults feels a bad smile affects their self-confidence more than their weight, hair, or wrinkles.

Additionally, they believe that crooked, overlapping, or misaligned teeth force them to smile less and become more introverted¹.

A bad smile shouldn’t define your personality, so why not address the dental concerns that are holding you back?

Braces have come a long way in recent years, and modern orthodontics can offer you bespoke solutions.

Ceramic braces are one of these solutions, and the professional dentists here at West House Dental in London can assist you on the road to a flawless smile.

  • Ceramic braces are an excellent option if you have crooked, misaligned teeth, or bite problems (underbite or overbite).
  • They are the same size and shape as traditional braces, but the brackets are made from ceramic or porcelain.
  • Ceramic braces are less noticeable than traditional metal braces.
  • They are the perfect middle ground between traditional braces and Invisalign.

What are Ceramic Braces?

An orthodontic solution designed to correct bite issues, crooked and overlapping teeth.

Ceramic brace material is different to that of traditional braces, however both classify as fixed braces.

Ceramic braces, unlike the traditional metal braces, have brackets and ties designed to blend in with your teeth.

Are clear ceramic braces right for you?

If you’ve been thinking about straightening your teeth for a while now, but feel that traditional metal braces don’t match your lifestyle, ceramic braces may be the change you were looking for.

Ceramic brace brackets and ties have a discrete design.

So, if you’re uncomfortable with the idea of wearing metal braces at work and you’re looking for something more subtle, ceramic braces are an excellent choice.

Depending on your natural teeth shade, you can opt for transparent or coloured braces, so that they blend in perfectly and achieve a natural result.

Both in terms of looks and cost, these braces are a middle ground between traditional braces and Invisalign.

Will fixed braces affect my lifestyle?

The aim of ceramic braces are to correct your orthodontic issues in a discrete way, so that you can smile with confidence.

One thing to note is that these braces stain more easily due to their materials being ceramic, not metal.

If you consume coloured foods or drinks regularly, you will have to pay more attention to this throughout the treatment.

We understand that each case is different and that correcting orthodontic issues requires a bespoke approach, so at West House Dental we will suggest a solution that best matches your expectations and lifestyle.
