FAQs

What is orthodontics?2024-02-23T15:08:31+00:00

Orthodontics is a specialised discipline within dentistry that focuses on the optimal development and alignment of the teeth alongside the structural harmony of the face and jaws. This field is not just about achieving an aesthetically pleasing smile; it is deeply rooted in enhancing your overall oral health, ensuring that your mouth and jaw work in unison.

How you eat and speak is central to your well-being, and at LLOC, we understand that the subtleties of these everyday actions are pivotal to your overall quality of life. A misaligned bite or improperly positioned teeth can lead to diverse problems, from difficulty chewing and speaking to chronic jaw pain and headaches. We are experienced in creating a harmonious balance between aesthetics and functionality so that you not only have a beautiful smile, but optimal oral health, too.

How do braces work?2024-02-23T15:09:28+00:00

Braces gradually guide your teeth into their ideal positions through sustained, gentle pressure; throughout your treatment, we will meticulously adjust the wires to move your teeth into their new positions over an appropriate period of time. If you choose aligners, these are replaced every few weeks as your teeth progressively straighten.

As early adopters of digital planning technologies, we are committed to providing individualised treatments using different bespoke systems and the latest innovations to meet your unique needs.

How are braces put on?2024-02-23T15:10:25+00:00

Traditional fixed braces are securely attached to the teeth with a special bonding adhesive. These can be metal or ceramic and depending on the type of braces you choose, are positioned either on the front or back of each tooth. Thin, adjustable wires are then threaded through the brackets, which are carefully adjusted to guide your teeth into alignment. This method is tailored to suit your aesthetic and functional needs and offers the highest level of precision and efficiency.

Do I need braces?2024-02-23T15:12:16+00:00

It is often assumed that braces are only for correcting crowded, misaligned or protruding teeth, the scope of treatment offered at LLOC extends beyond this, and there are many other factors that may lead you to seek orthodontic treatment, for example:

  • A misaligned bite, such as an underbite, overbite, open bite, or crossbite
  • Other spacing issues, including gaps between your teeth or crowding
  • Teeth which might protrude outside the lip

If you are considering implants or restorative treatments through your regular dentist, they may refer you for orthodontic treatment to get your teeth into the right position in preparation for these beforehand.

Recognising the profound effect a beautiful smile and correctly aligned teeth can have on your self-confidence and oral health, we will discuss all the treatment options with you in detail to create a solution that meets your needs.
