For many people seeking orthodontic treatment one of the most common questions and fears is the aesthetic nature of traditional braces. On first impression the second most looked at area of the face after the eyes is the teeth and even though great orthodontic treatment is always worth the treatment time, patients can be wary that they might end up looking like Ugly Betty.

It is a smile that already has and will in-fact charm millions for years to come. Appearing in the Telegraph today an article exposes the methods used in Kate's smile treatment. An extremely interesting read with regard to aesthetics and the notions of teeth being far too perfect. Dr Fillion states that "Teeth that look like piano keys are not good, so we try to give back some details, maybe a space we don’t close, or a shorter incisor". While we find this to be true to a degree the "harmonious symmetry" he speaks of should be a product of great orthodontics and not due to invasive treatment to the teeth. Here at Walpole we offer the  same braces used to give Kate her winning smile. We get great results for our patients using treatments such as Incognito (lingual braces)and Invisalign  - both of which are near invisible giving the wearer the confidence they seek whilst undergoing treatment, this is extremely popular amongst older teens and adults. For more info on our Surrey practice please give us a call or get in touch using one of our contact forms.
