Teeth Straightening - Orthodontics
What is orthodontics, and how does it work? Orthodontic treatment aligns your teeth and jaw to achieve a happier, healthier smile. We utilise orthodontic appliances such as braces and clear aligners to apply gentle pressure to the teeth. With braces or aligners your teeth can gradually shift into their correct positions over time.

Teeth Straightening
Teeth straightening is for anyone who wants to have a beautiful smile. We can help you achieve the smile of your dreams with Isle of Wight Dental Clinic and our dentists by your side. Straightening of your teeth can be achieved in two ways: Preventive braces or Teeth aligners.
Preventative braces
Orthodontic braces are bonded to your teeth to move them into the desired positions outlined in your custom-made orthodontic treatment plan. They work to straighten teeth, as well as improve the patient’s overall health through improved oral hygiene.
The main benefits of the braces are effectiveness and shorter time in achieving results. They work 24/7 to align the teeth. High-tech wires are less noticeable than the braces of the past. We use ceramic brackets (part of braces bonded to the teeth) that are toothcoloured and hardly noticeable.
Teeth aligners
Aligners are the alternative to orthodontic braces. Both are similar in what they do, but they feel and look different. They are in the form of a series of thin and clear custom made aligning trays. During each phase of treatment, the aligner tray applies more pressure to the teeth, to guide them into the desired position.
Aligners are designed using a computer software and you can see the results of treatment before it even starts. However please be aware that you need to wear them for at least 20 to 22 hours a day.

TYPES OF BRACES WE OFFER
Damon Ultima Metal Braces
Damon Ultima Metal Braces are akin to conventional metal braces, employing brackets and wires to gradually adjust the position of your teeth. The distinctive feature of the Damon System lies in its self-ligating mechanism, which eliminates the need for elastics or coloured ties. Instead, the Damon System incorporates a bracket that opens and closes like a door to secure a shape-memory wire in position. Damon Ultima is the latest innovation in the Damon System.
DAMON CLEAR BRACES AND 3M CLEAR BRACES
What are Clear Braces?
Clear braces offer a discreet alternative for those seeking a more aesthetically pleasing orthodontic treatment option. Functioning similarly to traditional metal braces, clear braces utilise brackets attached by a wire to gradually adjust the position of your teeth. The primary distinction lies in the type of bracket used. Instead of metal brackets, clear braces employ ceramic brackets that blend in with the colour of your teeth. It's important to note that clear braces differ from Invisalign®, which uses clear plastic aligners for teeth straightening.
At Isle of Wight Dental Clinic, we utilise 3M Clear Brackets with elastic bands and Damon clear brackets, which eschew traditional elastic ties. Instead, the Damon bracket functions like a door around the archwire, reducing pressure on the teeth and allowing for freer, quicker, and more comfortable movement. With no elastic ties, Damon clear braces offer even greater discretion than other bracket options. They also provide a versatile alternative to tray systems like Invisalign, which have limitations on the types of teeth they can straighten.
Are Clear Braces right for me?
Choosing the best orthodontic plan involves considering various factors, from dental structure to aesthetics. Dr. Tomasz can assist you in deciding and planning your journey towards a brighter smile.
The Damon System is compatible with all teeth, making it suitable for everyone, unlike some treatment options that have restrictions on the types of teeth they can straighten. Any questions you have can be addressed during your initial consultation as a new patient.
