What are Dental Appliances?

They are orthodontic devices that help improve the alignment of your teeth, correct your bite, replace missing teeth, and can include cosmetic options.

Issues with the alignment of teeth as well as missing teeth can cause external appearance and speech problems; orthodontic treatment can help address these concerns.

These appliances can be permanent or removable, depending on your treatment needs. They are fitted to your mouth specifically to give you the best outcome for your oral health.

Different Types of Dental Appliances

Permanent: Permanent dental appliances help give you your dream smile without the wear and tear of dental devices over time. They include; dental implants, aligners, and other innovative solutions.

  • Crowns
  • Fillings
  • Implants
  • Braces

Removable: Removable dental appliances include;

  • Dentures
  • Retainers
  • Mouth guards
  • Dental appliances for sleep apnea

How to Care for Dental Appliances

If you have permanent ones, you will need to brush them just like you would with natural teeth.

Cleaning removable appliances is slightly different. For some, you can brush them and insert them back in. With others, you can clean them with a denture-cleaning solution and store them in a safe case when you are not using them

Your dentist will go over the cleaning specifics depending on your particular dental appliance. Always remember to clean your dental appliances well (including the case) as bacteria can grow on them and put your oral health at risk.

What to Expect When Getting a Dental Appliance

The first step is to visit Gabriels Hill Dental for a consultation where you can discuss your concerns. An impression will be taken of your teeth to be used as a mould for your bespoke dental appliance.

Your dentist will then give you instructions on how, where and when to use your dental appliance.
