Have you ever wished you could straighten your teeth without changing the way you look in the process?
Modern teeth straightening has come a long way — with Invisalign clear aligners, you can work towards a straighter smile discreetly, comfortably, and at your own pace.
If you're ready to explore your options, visit us at our Halifax practice for a consultation with one of our teeth straightening dentists.
The simple, modern way to a straighter smile
Teeth straightening is one of the most popular and accessible dental treatments available today. Whether your teeth are crowded, gapped, or misaligned, modern orthodontic solutions can make a significant difference — often in less time than you'd expect.
At Skircoat Green Dental Practice, our primary treatment is Invisalign — a series of clear, removable aligners that gently guide your teeth into position. For patients whose needs are better suited to a traditional method, we also offer fixed braces.
Clear aligners and fixed braces — we'll find the right fit for you
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners, each worn for one to two weeks, that gradually move your teeth into their ideal position. Because they're removable, your daily routine — eating, brushing, and socialising — stays completely normal.
Fixed braces use brackets and wires bonded to the teeth to apply gentle, consistent pressure over time. Both treatments are planned using the latest digital scanning technology, so your journey is mapped out precisely from start to finish.
From your first consultation to your final result — we're with you every step
We begin by assessing your teeth and understanding your goals. Our clinician will recommend the most suitable treatment — Invisalign or fixed braces — and answer any questions you have.
Using digital scans of your teeth, we build a fully personalised plan. Invisalign patients can even preview their expected new smile before treatment begins.
Invisalign aligners should be worn for 20–22 hours per day for best results. Fixed braces remain in place throughout, with periodic adjustment appointments along the way.
Once your treatment is complete, we provide custom retainers to keep your teeth in their new position and protect your results long-term.
Most people are — and there's only one way to find out
Most healthy adults and teenagers are suitable candidates for teeth straightening.
Invisalign works well for mild to moderate alignment concerns, while fixed braces can treat a broader range of complexity.
The best way to find out is to book a free consultation at Skircoat Green Dental Practice.
Our friendly Halifax team will assess your smile and recommend the right option — with no obligation and no pressure.
Invisalign and traditional fixed braces are both effective orthodontic solutions that achieve the same result using different appliances. Visiting one of our teeth straightening dentists is the best way to find out which option will work best for your individual needs.
Treatment time varies from person to person. Most Invisalign patients complete their treatment within 12 months, with mild cases taking as little as six months. More complex cases can take up to 18 months or longer. Book an initial consultation to get a personalised treatment time estimate.
Yes, teeth straightening treatment is generally suitable for teeth that have had restorative dental work. Clear aligners move individual teeth without binding them together with metal wires. You should discuss your dental history with your clinician beforehand to confirm that your existing dental work will not be affected during treatment.
There is no need to panic if you lose or damage one of your aligners. Contact our team right away for advice. If you are close to starting a new set, we may advise you to move on early. If there are several weeks to go, we may recommend wearing your previous set to maintain your current progress until a replacement is provided.
With Invisalign, you do not need to avoid any specific foods — simply remove your aligners whenever you eat or drink anything other than plain water. As long as your aligners are out, they cannot be damaged and you are free to enjoy all the foods you love. Fixed brace patients will be given a list of foods to avoid to protect their brackets and wires.
The best way to find out whether Invisalign or fixed braces is right for you is to book a consultation at Skircoat Green Dental Practice. Our team will assess your teeth, discuss your smile goals and recommend the most suitable option — with no obligation and no pressure to commit.
