Frequently Asked Questions
In some cases we can focus on minor movements of the front teeth if clinically appropriate. We will assess your bite and gum health first to confirm whether a limited treatment is suitable and explain how this may affect stability and retention afterwards.
Please contact us as soon as possible. We will advise whether to move to the next stage, return to the previous stage, or arrange a replacement. Keeping your case safe and following storage instructions reduces the risk of loss or damage.
Good daily brushing and interdental cleaning are important. We will show you the most effective techniques for your chosen appliance and may recommend hygiene visits to support gum health so your treatment stays on track.
Most people adapt quickly. You may notice a slight lisp for a few days with some appliances, which usually settles as your mouth adjusts. We provide tips to help you adapt smoothly and review your progress at follow-up appointments.
Whitening is usually best planned after teeth have been aligned so the shade is even and stable. If whitening during treatment could be appropriate for you, your dentist will explain the safest timing and options at your assessment.
Please let us know your travel dates early. We can often schedule review appointments around your plans and supply guidance for care while away. If you will be away for an extended period, we will discuss safe options to maintain progress.
