Common Dental Problems

Crooked Teeth Cambridge

Straighter teeth are achievable at any age — often without traditional braces.

Crooked or misaligned teeth are extremely common and can affect how you feel about your smile as well as how easy your teeth are to keep clean. The best solution depends on the degree of crowding or misalignment, whether the bite is involved, and what result you are looking for. We offer both orthodontic and cosmetic routes.

You might have this if you notice

  • Teeth that overlap, twist or sit at an angle
  • Crowding — teeth that are too close together to clean properly
  • A smile you feel self-conscious about
  • Difficulty flossing in certain areas due to tight contacts

Straighter teeth are achievable at any age — often without traditional braces.

Common questions

Am I too old for orthodontic treatment?+
No. Adults make up a large proportion of Invisalign patients. Teeth can be moved safely and effectively at any age, provided the gums and bone are healthy.
How long does Invisalign take?+
Treatment typically takes between 6 and 18 months depending on the complexity of the case. Many straightforward cases are completed in under a year.
Is there a quick fix for crooked teeth?+
Composite bonding can improve the look of mildly crooked teeth in a single visit. It doesn't move the teeth, but can create a more even, symmetrical appearance.
Will straightening my teeth affect my bite?+
Invisalign treatment is planned to improve the bite alongside the alignment. We assess this carefully at your consultation before recommending treatment.
