Teeth Whitening
Patient: 23
Adult Braces
A 35 year old lady did not like her front tooth which she felt was sticking out. Her front teeth were crowded and her lateral incisor tooth rotated (twisted). She was concerned that she may need to have teeth removed, as this had been mentioned in previous consultations. She had orthodontic treatment to straighten her teeth and correct her overbite. We were able to carry out the treatment with no need for removal of any teeth using Damon braces and elastics. Her overbite was corrected and no longer had that one snaggle ‘sticking out’ front tooth. She loved her new smile.

This 26 year old gentleman was aware of his crowded front teeth and narrow smile. He had a narrow upper arch which resulted in less room for his front teeth. His back teeth were meeting behind his lower opposing teeth, called a crossbite. We carried out orthodontic treatment with fixed braces to expand or widen his upper arch and straighten the teeth. He lived in Rugby, which is 90 miles away but chose to have his treatment with us. We were thrilled to treat him and he was very thrilled with his new wider straighter smile. The traveling was well worthwhile for his result.

A fantastic result allowing our patient to keep her canine teeth in the right positions.

A 23 year old lady did not like her overlapping front teeth, and the way they were leaning to the right side.

We carried out orthodontic treatment with upper and lower fixed braces which took 15 months. She was a busy junior doctor and her appointment intervals were more flexible wearing Damon braces. She was thrilled with her new smile.

Invisalign
This 52-year-old lady wore fixed braces when she was younger and also had two upper teeth and a lower incisor tooth removed at the time. However, over time the teeth have moved and showed a degree of relapse. Her concerns were the gap between the two front teeth and her overbite. Her work commitments involved travelling abroad a significant part of the time and often to remote destinations where orthodontists are rare to find in an emergency. Our patient was keen to wear a removable brace as this would fit in with her lifestyle. Orthodontic treatment was carried out with Invisalign braces and we were able to maintain a very small gap between her two front teeth as this gap was a family characteristic and she did not want to lose this distinguishing feature.
