In this episode Brad talks about teeth straightening. Teeth straightening has become more popular recently in the quest to preserve tooth structure by moving teeth rather than drilling them. There are many different types of brace such as: Invisalign clear aligners which are very popular, especially for adults – and are removable, metal braces (either on the front or back of teeth), and clear ceramic braces.
Whether you have treatment coming up and want to know more information, or curious about what options are out there for cosmetic dentistry, Lets Talk Teeth with Brad will give you the knowledge you need to make decisions about your dental care and oral health. Presented in an easy to understand way, the purpose of the show is to inform and empower you, the patient, to have the confidence about your treatment and take control of your dental health.
