Ceramic braces work similarly to traditional or metal braces, but have tooth-coloured or clear brackets to replace metal ones. These help in making your braces less noticeable, as ceramic brackets picked are usually tooth-coloured.
Unlike conventional braces, aligners are clear and thin plastic-like trays that fit on our teeth. They are usually not permanent and can be put in and removed by the user. Usually, aligners should be put on all the time except for when having meals or when practising oral hygiene like brushing or flossing.

A mouthguard can be prescribed by the dentist to avoid tooth grinding. Mouthguards can protect the teeth from grinding against each other, causing excessive wear. There are mouthguards for teeth grinding at night (nightguards) and for teeth clenching during the daytime.
Retainers avoid teeth from moving back to their original positions after braces or aligners are removed. They prevent movement of teeth until the growth of our gums and skeletal muscles are reorganised following the changes. The frequency of wearing retainers and the length of time needed to keep them on vary, we usually need to wear them for full time for about 6 months, and then only during the night time after that.
This type of retainer is usually placed on the lower front teeth. It is not removable and is usually left in place for months. This solution is common for those who have a high risk of their teeth moving back into their old positions.
Also known as Vacuum-formed retainers, these are plastic-like retainers which are usually transparent. These retainers go on your teeth like a cap and is less visible. They are easy to remove and clean, but less durable than a Hawley retainer. They are not recommended for individuals who grind their teeth.
Designed by Charles Hawley in 1919, this is the most popular retainer used after orthodontic treatments. Hawley retainers are simple-looking metal wire retainers that can hold the position of teeth to prevent them from moving back into their original positions. It is removable, making it easy to clean, and the acrylic is available in a wide range of colours

Composite (plastic) resins are matched to be the same colour as your teeth and therefore used where a natural appearance is desired. The ingredients are mixed and placed directly into the cavity, where they harden. Composites may not be the ideal material for large fillings as they may chip or wear over time. They can also become stained from coffee, tea or tobacco, and do not last as long as other types of fillings generally from three to 10 years.

"Wisdom tooth, as commonly known, is actually the third molar tooth. For most of us wisdom teeth are the last teeth in the mouth, usually erupted during the late teens or early 20's. For most of us wisdom teeth are either fully erupted, partially erupted or do not erupt at all. It is common to have some discomfort during eruption of wisdom teeth, epecially the lowers. The most common complaint is pain and swelling. This is normally followed by fever, difficulties in mouth opening, and of course eating. These will normally subside after a few days, however some will require a visit to the dentist or Oral Surgeons for cleaning and a course of antibiotics and painkillers. Subsequently the teeth might require removal. Since most of wisdom teeth, mainly the lower, are impacted, removal means a minor oral surgical procedure."
