Tooth correction in adults
Crooked teeth but no desire for fixed braces? In adults, correcting the position of the teeth is readily possible provided the periodontium is healthy. A panoramic X-ray (OPG) provides information about this.
Entirely without metal in the mouth: treatment with aligners
Gaps between the teeth and crooked teeth can nowadays be treated entirely without metal in the mouth. With removable, flexible and transparent plastic aligners the correction can be carried out particularly discreetly and aesthetically. We use custom-made, almost invisible aligners that do not get in the way in everyday life.
The correction aligners made individually for you are changed regularly and move your teeth step by step into the desired position. A single aligner moves the teeth only by fractions of a millimetre; the entire series is planned with computer support. The aligners get in the way neither when speaking nor when eating and can be taken out by you at any time.
