Teeth straightening, also known as orthodontic treatment, is a dental procedure designed to correct misaligned teeth and bite issues. Whether you have crooked teeth, gaps, overcrowding, or an improper bite, teeth straightening can transform both the appearance and function of your smile.
Modern orthodontic treatments have evolved significantly, offering more comfortable, discreet, and efficient solutions than ever before. From traditional metal braces to virtually invisible clear aligners like Invisalign, there's a teeth straightening option to suit every lifestyle and preference.
At Forever Dental and Skin, Dr. Murray Pratt and Dr. Mary Talbot provide expert orthodontic consultations to determine the best treatment approach for your unique needs. Straighter teeth aren't just about aesthetics—properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reduce the risk of gum disease, and can improve overall oral health.

Everything you need to know about teeth straightening
Treatment duration varies based on the complexity of your case and the method chosen. Invisalign typically takes 6-18 months for mild to moderate cases, while traditional braces usually require 12-24 months. During your consultation, we'll provide a personalized timeline based on your specific orthodontic needs.
You may experience some discomfort or pressure, especially after adjustments or when starting new aligners. This is normal and indicates your teeth are moving. Most patients describe it as mild soreness rather than pain, and it typically subsides within a few days. Over-the-counter pain relief can help manage any discomfort.
Absolutely! There's no age limit for orthodontic treatment. In fact, approximately 25% of orthodontic patients are adults. Modern options like Invisalign are particularly popular among adults because they're discreet and fit seamlessly into professional lifestyles. It's never too late to achieve the smile you've always wanted.
The cost varies depending on the treatment type and complexity of your case. Invisalign typically ranges from £2,000-£5,000, while traditional braces range from £1,500-£4,000. We offer flexible payment plans and 0% finance options to make treatment affordable. Your consultation includes a detailed cost breakdown with no hidden fees.
Yes, retainers are essential to maintain your results. After your teeth straightening treatment is complete, you'll need to wear retainers to prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original positions. Initially, you'll wear them full-time, then transition to nighttime wear only. We'll provide detailed retainer care instructions.
With Invisalign, there are no food restrictions since you remove the aligners before eating. With traditional braces, avoid hard foods (nuts, hard candy), sticky foods (caramel, gum), and foods that can get stuck in braces (popcorn, corn on the cob). We'll provide a comprehensive list of foods to avoid to protect your braces.
With Invisalign, you'll typically visit every 6-8 weeks to check progress and receive new aligners. Traditional braces require visits every 4-6 weeks for adjustments and monitoring. These regular appointments are crucial for ensuring your treatment stays on track and addressing any concerns promptly.
