Teeth straightening

Serving patients throughout Sturminster Newton

Never before have there been so many ways to have your teeth straightened.

Teeth straightening is a dental speciality known as Orthodontics. Using fixed braces or removable aligners, teeth are slowly and precisely moved to achieve a beautifully aligned smile.

Dentists and Orthodontists have been straightening teeth for decades, but a lot has changed in that time. Traditional fixed braces will always be a fantastic way to straighten teeth, but advances in technology have now introduced a range of discreet alternatives. From clear removable aligners, clear fixed braces to invisible wires hidden behind the teeth, these aesthetic options have seen a huge rise in the number of adults seeking straighter teeth.

Orthodontic treatment is most often used to improve the appearance and alignment of crooked, protruding or crowded teeth, and to correct problems with the bite of the teeth. Whether you have mild crowding or a complex bite problem, our teeth straightening dentist our dentist, can help you to achieve your perfect smile.

At Sturminster Dental Care in Sturminster Newton we offer the following teeth straightening options:

  • Clear aligners
  • Traditional Fixed and removable Braces

Treatment times vary depending on your individual alignment needs. For simple cases this could be just a few months, but for more complex movements, it usually takes between 12 months and two years to achieve your beautiful new smile. our dentist will give you an idea of how long your teeth straightening treatment may take during your initial consultation.

After moving to the area, I needed to find a new dental practice. I had been with my last practice since childhood, so a big move! Sturminster have provided a very good level of care, with questions re the rational for a treatment schedule explained well, leaving me able to make good, informed choices re how I wish to proceed and advice given to make theses choices confidently. As a retired person, dental care is a big expense, but I have no doubt that working with Sturminster I will continue to be able to make choices based on their excellent care.
