What is Instant Orthodontics?

    WASHINGTON, DC, June 25, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- If you had your teeth straightened over a along period of time as a teenager, the term "instant orthodontics" may sound barbaric and radical at first. However, instant orthodontics does not actually move your teeth. It's a cosmetic dental strategy that uses porcelain veneers to make your teeth appear straight without having to wear braces or go through the lengthy process of aligning your teeth. You can have a beautiful, straight smile in just two office visits.

Quick, easy, and comfortable

Tooth straightening can be a long process involving regular office visits, wearing braces or appliances, and it can be painful. Even worse, you may have already gone through it all in your youth only to have your teeth shift later in life. You certainly don't want to do that again.

Instant orthodontics will give you a straight smile in a short period of time. It only requires two office visits, is non-invasive, and painless.

Who can benefit from instant orthodontics?

Instant orthodontics can correct minor crookedness. If you are unsure of whether it will work for you, ask your cosmetic dentist. It is great for people who have multiple dental flaws. You can cover discoloration and correct other flaws in one solution.

Instant orthodontics is perfect if you are anticipating a special event and want to look your very best without lengthy and invasive dental procedures. Many people choose instant orthodontics to prepare for a wedding, graduation, class reunion, or a job interview. It will boost your self confidence and you will be showing off your smile with pride.

Correcting multiple problems with one solution

One of the great benefits of instant orthodontics is that it also covers other flaws including discoloration, chips, cracks, misshapen teeth, and small gaps. It is not nearly as comprehensive as a Smile Makeover, but for the time and money invested it can be the next best thing.

How it works

Instant orthodontics uses porcelain veneers to cover the fronts of your teeth and make them appear straight. Porcelain veneers are thin shells of porcelain that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth making them very strong. They are perfectly matched to the color of your natural teeth and porcelain interacts with light in the same way as natural tooth enamel, so they look natural and alive.

Alternatives to instant orthodontics
If your teeth are too crooked for instant orthodontics, or if you want to truly straighten your teeth, you can choose Invisalign , virtually clear braces system that uses a series of clear plastic tray, called aligners, to gradually and gently move your teeth into the proper alignment. It does not involve the wires and brackets required with braces, so they are virtually invisible and won't cut and irritate the inside of your mouth. You can take the aligners out to eat and brush your teeth.
