Orthodontic Treatment at metamorphosis

At Metamorphosis our philosophy is more than just about straightening teeth. We go one step further and put in place a holistic orthodontic treatment plan that takes into account the aesthetics of the whole of the patients face, the profile, bone tissue and muscular structure. We call this higher level of care, "face-driven orthodontics".

Our work is truly transformational. It's about boosting peoples confidence and appearance by helping treat a whole range of different conditions. These include tooth crowding, protruding teeth, cross bites and gaps between teeth.

Damon braces

The Damon braces system is a revolutionary approach to orthodontic treatment. Damon braces offer a new generation of treatments including Damon 3, Damon Q and Damon Clear braces which produce results fast!

Conventional braces have elastic 'ties' which cause friction and  pressure. Damon braces feature a sliding mechanism over the bracket that helps to reduce this friction and any potential discomfort as teeth move.The absence of 'ties' also makes dental hygiene easier during treatment as they do not collect plaque. Not only do Damon braces result in quicker treatment times but lighter forces on the teeth providing a more comfortable treatment experience.

By using the Damon braces system the patient will experience less visits to the practice and on average, 4-6 months less in their treatment times. At Metamorphosis, we are among the leading orthodontists in the fitting of Damon braces in London – just ring us to find out more or find more information at www.damonbraces.com.

Invisalign braces

Not everyone wants to the world to know they are having orthodontic treatment so Invisalign is a great way to straighten teeth without visible braces using a series of nearly undetectable, transparent aligners instead of wires and brackets.

Invisalign orthodontic treatment is a removable brace system that uses a series of 25-50 custom-made, clear aligners to move your teeth, week by week, millimetre by millimetre, to the desired position.

Using advanced 3-D computer imaging technology to project tooth movement, Invisalign allows you to visualise your treatment from start to finish, through animated visuals, which can be viewed online.

Unlike other braces they can also be removed for eating, brushing and flossing so you can still eat and drink all your favourite foods. Invisalign braces are particularly suitable for most teenagers. You can visit www.invisalign.com to find out more information on Invisalign braces or ring our helpful staff for advice on invisalign orthodontics at our clinic here in London.

Lingual braces

The word "lingual" originates from a Latin word meaning "close to the tongue". As a technology, lingual appliances have been around for more than 35 years and are a great option for people of any age who want the benefits of aligned teeth without the appearance of braces.

Lingual braces are used to correct misaligned teeth and bite problems, using a fixed brace that is bonded to the inner side of the teeth. This enables teeth to be moved into their correct position without having the braces in plain view.

Lingual braces differ from conventional fixed braces because they are placed behind the teeth giving invisibility with no change in facial contours. If you are considering lingual braces then you are welcome to visit us to see our outstanding facilities and to discuss how we can help provide a treatment plan tailored to your exact needs.

Recently lingual braces have become increasingly popular with a lot of actors and actresses who are searching for a method that won't be as noticeable as traditional orthodontist braces. Unlike standard brackets which are mass produced, lingual braces require a custom-made bracket for each tooth.

Cosmetic braces

Attractive, clear fixed braces or tooth coloured cosmetic braces, consisting of fixed brackets and white wires, appeal to some patients because they have a less obtrusive appearance. Think Tom Cruise!

These are made from a ceramic material and bonded directly onto the teeth. They are particularly suitable for teenagers where compliance might be a problem.

Clear braces are a very popular orthodontic treatment and has an appeal across all ages. At Metamorphsis you will be reassured that our patient centered clear fixed braces treatment is among the best in London.
