While it\u2019s true that for certain complex conditions you will need to pay a visit to the orthodontist in Liverpool, for cosmetic adjustments, the dentists here at <strong>Liverpool Smile Studio<\/strong> can help you to a healthier, happier smile.<\/p>\n<p>We use a range of braces systems to help you achieve the look you want.

These braces are fixed, metal ones, but rather than blazing a glinty trail across the teeth, they blend into them. How come? Because the brackets are made from ceramic and the wires are coated in a tooth-coloured material.<\/p>\n<p>Because the braces only act on the front 6-8 teeth, they also do their work quickly, in 4-9 months or 6 on average.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invisalign<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These clear aligners aren\u2019t like traditional braces at all. They look like thin, transparent mouth guards, and use pressure points inside the aligners to nudge the teeth into position.<\/p>\n<p>Invisalign aligners are also removable, so easy to keep clean. Both teens and adults can benefit from Invisalign, which takes 12-18 months to do its work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inman Aligner<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a different kind of brace altogether. It uses 2 aligner bows to both push and pull the front teeth into position. It\u2019s incredibly fast-acting, with results in just 6-18 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The aligner is removable, so easy to clean, and is only visible through one thin wire.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find out more<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Do you need to see the <strong>orthodontist in Liverpool<\/strong>?
