What is an Inman Aligner?
The Inman Aligner is a cost-effective removable orthodontic appliance that moves teeth in a fraction of the time of other systems. It aligns crowded or protruding anterior teeth with two opposing spring loaded aligner bars. This provides gentle but continuous pressure and can produce a large range of movement. Surprisingly, this gentle pressure is the quickest way to move teeth but it also makes treatment very safe and kind to teeth.
People love the speed of treatment and it’s changing the face of dentistry as we know it. The average treatment time is only 6-16 weeks and now with concerns over the economy it’s a more affordable solution.
The Inman Aligner is now available in North London at Smile Cliniq.
How does it work?
The Inman Aligner uses a lingual coil spring that puts pressure on the teeth that need straightening and a labial bar that reverses the same pressure. These devices work together to squeeze the teeth together by pushing and pulling them into position.
What’s the difference between Inman Aligners and other orthodontic appliances?
Fixed and clear braces such as Invisalign work well however, in certain cases the Inman Aligner can work more quickly and effectively and you can have your front teeth straightened in as little as 6-16 weeks. Simple cases can be finished in just over a month and more severe cases can be as little as four months. Normally the front lower teeth tend to move a little faster than the front upper teeth. After treatment, understanding the importance of wearing an orthodontic retainer will help maintain your newly aligned smile.
