We provide a comprehensive dental service for all the family, including orthodontics. Straighter, better aligned teeth with the minimum of extractions.

At Downe in the Mouth, Ian Crutchley has a special interest in the orthopaedic approach to orthodontic treatment. This involves developing the jaws to accommodate teeth thus helping avoid the unnecessary extraction of healthy teeth. Orthodontic treatment can help prevent and treat dental and facial irregularities such as missing or overcrowded teeth and teeth that are not aligned properly.

Your dentist will give you instructions on a good oral hygene routine while receiving orthodontic treatment as this is vital to a successful outcome.

Invisalign

Ian Crutchley has been trained and certified to treat patients using Invisalign technology. Invisalign is the invisible way to straighten teeth using a series of custom-made, nearly undetectable aligners. It has been proven effective in both clinical research and in practices throughout America.

Patients wear each aligner in sequence for two weeks at a time and gradually, millimetre by millimetre you achieve the intended result – straighter teeth.

You can remove your Invisalign aligners to continue to enjoy a full range of your favourite foods and most importantly for brushing and flossing.
