I was at my gym this morning and got talking to a middle-aged lady in the changing room. I soon realised that she had Invisalign braces on; being a platinum provider of Invisalign®, I couldn’t resist asking her how she was getting on with her braces. She told me she had gum disease because her teeth were so crowded that they were hard to clean, which led to puffy and bleeding gums. She told me that she was forever visiting her hygienist until she was advised to straighten her teeth with dental braces.
Out of all the different types of braces available, she thought Invisalign® would suit her lifestyle because it is discreet. She has already noticed a considerable difference in her gums and finds them so easy to clean as her teeth are straightening out. So she is clearly en route to a healthy and straight nice smile!
When adults have braces, it is mainly thought that they are having them for cosmetic reasons, but that is not always true. Braces are recommended to prevent gum disease in those who find it difficult to clean between overlapped and crowded teeth. Gum disease, in turn, has been associated with many systemic illnesses. Plaque which causes gingivitis and periodontitis, has loads of bacteria in it, which are also linked with health problems such as stroke, heart disease and diabetes. So, plaque removal equals keeping gum disease at bay. However, with crowded and overlapped teeth, plaque removal with flossing and interdental brushes can be difficult to achieve.
That is why we recommend Orthodontic treatment with braces to correct the alignment of teeth, and once they are straighter, plaque control becomes much easier. With so many different types of braces to choose from, clear fixed braces are the choice of many adults, and Invisalign® is another very popular one.
Healthy gums equate to healthy teeth because the gums and supporting bones around teeth act like foundations for them. The healthier the foundations, the stronger the teeth are going to be. If gums and bones soften due to the activity of bacterial toxins, the teeth are eventually going to get loose, and then your oral health is on a downward spiral. This can be easily prevented by visiting your hygienist or dentist and asking them for recommendations on the prevention of this disease because we all know prevention is always better than cure.

Jodie works in beauty, so she knew what to look for.
Three consultations elsewhere felt like a sales pitch. Hers at Sale Dental felt different.
Now her clients ask who did her teeth.

Happy birthday to our founder, Dr Aisha 🎂
She opened Sale Dental Spa in 2005 with one idea: that going to the dentist should feel like being looked after, not just treated. Twenty-one years on, that’s still the standard.
Every patient whose smile she’s changed, every team member she’s mentored, every detail of how we do things, it all goes back to her.
From the whole SD family, have the best day. 💜

Preventative care will always cost less than reactive care.
The difference is how you approach it.
