Invisible braces are hugely popular, but they are not always the best option. If you have minor issues and you’re looking for a rapid solution, which guarantees results, why not consider the Inman Aligner? This amazing treatment offers discretion, as well as speed and it is specifically designed for patients who only require minor correction.
What exactly is the Inman Aligner?
The Inman Aligner is a removable orthodontic device, which sits over the top of the teeth. It looks similar to invisible aligners, but it is designed for patients who have minor issues with the front teeth and it works much faster. Although the aligner is not invisible, it is extremely discreet and all that can be seen when you smile is a very fine metal bar, which sits on the front of the teeth.
The Inman Aligner works by generating forces, which work to move the teeth; these forces, which are produced by a coiled spring and a metal bar, squeeze the teeth, causing them to move. The technology behind this treatment is very advanced and it enables patients to enjoy results very quickly with minimal pain. The average treatment time is just 16 weeks, so you’ll be coming to see us to get your braces off and check out your new smile in no time.
Is the Inman Aligner a better choice for me than invisible braces?
Invisible aligners are an excellent choice for many patients, but in cases where only a small amount of movement is required and the issues are restricted to the front teeth, the Inman Aligner may be a better option.

Ever feel that those crooked, nay, buck front teeth are holding you back, you know, really holding you back from cutting loose and showing just how beautifully you can smile? There’s a beautiful smile in everyone, unfortunately, our teeth can often stop us from showing it, yet as we get older, the thought of any lengthy orthodontic treatment can stop that smile coming out too. So, you may well like to take a day off work and ask your dentist in Leeds all about the Inman aligner, because this supersonic device could be the answer to all your prayers. There is no other aligner quite like it and it’s a masterpiece of engineering: the device works on the theory that if you keep the teeth moving all of the time, they will move a lot quicker; a coil spring and wire exerts a pulling force on the front of the teeth and at the same time a small bar (which also acts as a template for the teeth to align themselves against), pushes the opposite way, squeezing the teeth and rocking them into place against the bar. That’s the technical bit over, now the important facts. This tailor made device starts from around £1200, but before you start thinking ‘bit pricey’, this is the best bit…..it can work in as little as 6 weeks!! Now if that hasn’t caught your attention, then let’s seal the deal- it can also be taken out when you eat or clean your teeth…Bet your smiling inside and out now!
A set of perfectly aligned teeth has a number of advantages for those lucky enough to have them. Aside from looking better, there is less risk of cavities developing in impacted (bunched up) teeth and reduced chances of experiencing nocturnal teeth grinding (bruxism). Talk to your dentist in Central Leeds about teeth straightening and they will tell you that there a number of different options now available.
Teenagers in the United States have been smashing the stereotype that exists of adolescents with mouths full of metal braces. This is because you don’t necessarily have to wear a metal brace anymore if you want to get your teeth straightened into a perfect smile. The product that allows them to do this is now available in the United Kingdom too and it is being warmly welcomed by people who care about their appearance but understand that treatment is needed to correct their crooked smile.
One of the problems with correcting a crooked set of teeth is the time involved with the treatment, which has been proven to put people off from even bothering in the first place, especially those who, pardon the pun, are a little long in the tooth? Well those of you in Leeds, who have ‘bucked’ or twisted teeth at the front of the mouth, sit up and take notice, for there’s an aligner available that will blow your mind. It’s called the Inman and it rocks….literally! This sensational little device works painlessly by gently keeping your teeth on the move, because while it applies pressure on the outside with a barely noticeable wire, a spring activated bar reverses the pressures on the inside; it rocks your teeth into place! And this device has an added bonus of being removable. Imagine the freedom that affords when having a meal, socialising for a couple of hours and cleaning your teeth! It’s not an expensive treatment either, considering the engineering that goes into this device and the way it works. After the treatment a retainer will have to be worn for a while, usually whilst you sleep or when you’re alone to prevent the treatment from reversing itself. But if you are still stubbornly unsure about going down this avenue, then maybe this little fact will make you wake up and see the light. The treatment is complete, done and dusted in as little as…..wait for it……6 weeks! The Inman rocks alright!!!
For anyone put off getting their teeth straightened by the thought of wearing an unsightly metal brace for as much as three years, things have changed and new products are available that are far more discreet and work far quicker than traditional braces. One such product is the Inman aligner and you should read on for more information.
