This lady from Bromley was unhappy with the crooked front teeth. She wanted her teeth straightened but did not want fixed braces. Her case took 16 weeks to complete with an upper Inman aligner. The patient then used a home whitening kit and we finished with some composite edge bonding on three of the front teeth. Job done!

This patient from Chislehurst was unhappy with his protruding upper teeth and was considering orthodontics. He was unsure what type of braces were suitable.

A fan screw appliance followed by an Inman Aligner were used to bring his upper teeth back in to a more upright position and greatly improve the appearance of his smile.

The patient did some home tooth whitening and then we replaced some large fillings between his front two teeth and on the front edge of the upper left lateral incisor.

For this Inman aligner treatment we used an Inman aligner with a combined expander for just over 5 months following this three clear aligners were used to do some tidying up. The patient used a home tooth whitening kit and then some composite edge bonding was done on the upper six front teeth.

This patient was unhappy with her crowded upper front teeth.

Having had a chat about the options she decided to go ahead with an Inman Aligner to correct the crowding. The treatment took about 8 weeks.

After this she did some home tooth whitening and we performed some simple direct composite edge bonding on her four front teeth.

A very short treatment time, no damage to the tooth structure and no costly veneers. The alignment phase took 10 weeks, during which the whitening was completed. The composite edge bonding took 1 visit.

End result a beautiful smile!

From a chipped tooth to an amazing smile

This patient from Kent was concerned about her crooked smile. Many patients with teeth like this often think that Veneers are their only solution.
Instead, the patient had her teeth aligned with an Inman Aligner over 11 weeks. She only needed to wear it for 16-20 hours a day meaning it can be taken out for going out and eating. She was also able to whiten her teeth at the same time- saving time which is also a big advantage over fixed braces. Straight after some simple edge bonding was carried out turning her smile into something beautiful and natural without any tooth needed to be removed.
The Process of ABB (aligning bleaching and bonding) is dramatically changing the way that cosmetic dentistry is being carried out- Meaning it is far less risky, and far more affordable to more patients.

Another Inman Aligner smile make-over!-Case by Chris Ibbott

admin — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 10:01:00 +0000

This young man came to us very self conscious about his crossed over front teeth.

He had thought about veneers but did not want to do any damage to his existing tooth structure and I very much agreed. Orthodontics was a much more attractive option but he was put off by the long treatment times of some invisible brace systems or fixed braces. I suggested that we use the Inman Aligner.

An Inman aligner was used over roughly 16 weeks to straighten his upper front teeth. He then used a home tooth whitening kit to really finish things off in style. We were both very happy with the result!

This lady came in to us unhappy with her protruding upper central tooth. She had first noticed it start to stick out some years back and had watched on as it had progressively got worse over time, thinking there was no treatment for it. In fact her own dentist had told her there was nothing she could do. When she came in to see us she was advised to have an Inman Aligner. The treatment took just 16 weeks, no drilling was required and no teeth needed to be removed. She was delighted with the result.

Teeth gone crooked after braces as a child. Fixed in 14 weeks!-Case by Chris Ibbott

admin — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 14:36:25 +0000

This young lady used to have perfectly straight front teeth having worn fixed braces as a child. The teeth weren’t retained properly after the orthodontics though and as a result they drifted out of position. She was understandably very keen to get them back to how they used to be.

An Inman Aligner was used to gently move the teeth back into position. During this process the teeth were whitened using a simple home tooth whitening system and to finish things off the upper right front tooth had its tip restored with composite bonding and some mild tooth reshaping was carried out. The upper left lateral incisor was build up with a composite resin veneer to improve its shape.

The teeth are now fixed in place with a wire retainer bonded onto the inner surface of the upper front teeth. The patient was very happy with the final result!

Correcting a crossed over front tooth -By Neelam Patel

admin — Thu, 17 Feb 2011 11:05:19 +0000

This lady was unhappy with her upper front tooth that crossed over her lower teeth. For many years she had wanted to get it treated but she was not sure what her options were. She feared that she may just have to live with it until she heard about us at Dental Elegance and came in for a chat with one of the dentists. She was advised that there was a simple non invasive solution in the form of a removable brace called the Inman Aligner. She was very keen to have the treatment and was happy that it was cost effective. Following about 4 months of treatment you can see the amazing difference. The patient was delighted with the result. And we are proud of the fact that we could achieve this without the need for tooth removal or drilling the teeth- this is our view is priceless!!

An amazing natural smile in far less than 6 months.

The Inman Aligner is one of the fastest and simplest ways to get a great smile.

Using a fully removable brace that only needs to be worn 16-20 hours a day you can get the smile you always wanted in normally only 6- 16 weeks. Because of the intermittent but gentle motion used by the Inman Aligner, studies show that the forces it uses are extremely safe. These intermittent gentle forces also mean that the Inman Aligner works far more quickly than other Clear Aligner systems and often costs far less. And it means that if you want to take it out when you go out, you can!!

Because the brace can be removed so easily, patients can easily whiten their teeth simultaneously meaning we can perform amazing non invasive smile makeovers in a matter of weeks.

Patients who ever thought about having veneers should really take a look at the Inman Aligner with combined tooth whitening because they might find that they could get a far more natural smile with no damage done to their teeth at all.

Not every case is suitable but if you are you would be amazed what is possible- take a look at the Inman Aligner Gallery on our website.
