Braces for All Ages
Adults
Orthodontic treatment can be successful at any age, and adults especially appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. One of every five patients in orthodontic treatment is over 21. Adults may have experienced some breakdown or loss of their teeth and bone that supports the teeth and may require periodontal treatment before, during and/or after orthodontic treatment. Bone loss can also limit the amount and direction of tooth movement that is advisable.
Our office offers many invisible options for orthodontic treatment including tooth colored or clear braces, removable clear aligners, and lingual braces.
Ultra Precision Miniature Self-Ligating Braces
At Guildford Orthodontic Centre, we use state-of-the-art miniature self-ligating braces - an innovative development in clinical technology, making orthodontic treatment more efficient and more comfortable than ever before. These braces have a built-in "sliding door" that holds the wire in place while allowing it to slide freely back and forth. This system allows the use of high-tech, light-force wires to achieve tooth movement. This results in less pressure to the teeth, thus more comfortable treatment. Treatment time can be dramatically reduced. This means fewer adjustments and less frequent office visits for our patients.
Clear Cosmetic Braces
These clear braces virtually disappear in your mouth. With the superior aesthetics of clear braces, you can create the smile you have always dreamed of without the look of metal.
Invisalign
If the thought of wearing braces is holding you back from the smile you've always wanted, this is good news. Introducing Invisalign, a state-of-the-art alternative to braces that is virtually undetectable to other people. Invisalign straightens your teeth, not with brackets and wires, but with a series of clear, customized, removable appliances called aligners

Lingual Braces
The only truly invisible option are braces that are placed on the inside surface of the teeth. These braces work in the same way as the braces on the front surface of the teeth.

Children
Dr. Kanani & the Canadian Association of Orthodontics recommend the first orthodontic screening by age seven to advise if orthodontic treatment is required and the best time for that patient to be treated. The first permanent molars and incisors have usually come in by that time and cross bites, crowding and other problems can be evaluated. When treatment is initiated at an early age, the orthodontist can guide the growth of the jaw and guide incoming permanent teeth. Early treatment can also regulate the width of the upper and lower dental arches, gain space for permanent teeth, avoid the need for permanent tooth extractions, reduce likelihood of impacted permanent teeth, correct thumb-sucking, and eliminate abnormal swallowing or speech problems. In other words, early treatment will simplify later treatment.
How Orthodontic Treatment Works
Orthodontic appliances can be made of metal, ceramic or acrylic. They may be removable or they may be brackets bonded to the teeth. By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, braces slowly move teeth to a corrected position. This is a great time to wear braces! Gone are the days when a metal band was placed around each tooth. You can choose brackets that are clear or metallic color. You can choose the color of the ties that hold the wire in brackets. Wires are also less noticeable than they used to be and the latest materials move teeth faster with less discomfort to patients.
