Anyone who is concerned about whether or not they need invisible braces should see a qualified cosmetic dentistry practitioner in order to get the best advice.

Dental Health magazine said braces can be used for people of all ages, but a dentist or orthodontist will know the most about what types are suitable for each individual.

The article also pointed out that he or she will probably want to carry out some preliminary work such as putting in a temporary dental splint first, as this will help to ensure jaw alignment is correct.

It added: “The patient should wear dental braces after the splint, because this is the best way to correct the jaw misalignment and the physical appearance of the teeth.”

Last month, Connie Allfrey, 29, told the London Evening Standard she had Invisalign braces fitted when her teeth began growing out of line and found them to be excellent.
