If you’ve been posing for holiday pictures while hiding your smile or feeling uncomfortable about your teeth, then maybe it’s time that you consider braces or Invisalign. 2021 should be about new beginnings, so perhaps this is the perfect time to work on your smile and greet the next holiday season proudly boasting a big grin. 

Crooked teeth or other imperfections are a common source of self-consciousness for many adults and teens, but with the latest trends in orthodontics, you can straighten your teeth in no time. Spending some time wearing braces is an incredible investment for your future. If traditional braces scare you, there are other options available for achieving a picture-perfect smile. 

If your still not convinced about the benefits of having braces, we’ve decided to put together this short-list of some of the advantages and reasons that braces/Invisalign can work for you.

  1. Smiling can trick your brain into happiness and boost your health

If you’ve felt too insecure to show off your pearly whites, you should know smiling more can have beneficial effects on your mental well-being and overall health. Numerous studies have shown that even faking a smile can trick your brain into feeling happier as well as lower the body’s response to stressful situations. 

So, if any dental imperfections are standing in the way of you smiling more, it’s smart to consider getting braces or cool Invisalign treatments that can help straighten your teeth seamlessly and without any wires. 

Start this holiday season and next year you’ll be astonished by your perfected grin – the usual Invisalign treatment lasts for just one year while your smile will last forever.

  1. The New Year is the perfect time to change things for the better

A lot of adults shy away from getting their teeth sorted, but if you look around, I am sure you will notice more and more people are having dental treatment much later in life. Many people make new resolutions in the New Year, by committing to braces you can be sure at least one of these will pay off. 

  1. Treatment costs are lower than ever

Several years ago, many orthodontic treatments may have been outside of your budget, however, with so many options now, treatments are cheaper than ever.

It’s extremely easy to arrange payment plans making treatment more affordable and easier to finance. Get in touch with our team today and we can go through your payment options.
