Secret Smile Orthodontics Event Promotes Straight Teeth in Yorkshire

Secret Smile Orthodontics, the specialists for teeth straightening in Yorkshire and North Nottinghamshire, recently held an exclusive launch event for general dental practitioners at Mercedes Benz of Sheffield.

The event gave local dentists an insight into the range of specialist techniques available to straighten teeth naturally and give patients the smile they've always wanted in secret, as all are designed to improve your smile naturally and discretely.

Many patients don't like the idea of having visible 'train-track' braces and are looking for hidden braces, so Secret Smile Orthodontics specialise in cosmetic braces - those that may be tooth-coloured, clear and removable, or even braces on the inside surface of the teeth.

The techniques are available to people of all ages and can be used for simple teeth alignment through to comprehensive bite correction. All work is carried out by a Specialist Orthodontist and Consultant, Caroline McCarthy, who plans each case to be tailored to the lifestyle needs of the individual.

The main techniques used by Secret Smile Orthodontics include incognito from 3M Unitek and ceramic braces.

Incognito is a system of braces where they are fixed to the inside (tongue-side) of the teeth, so that they are hidden from view. State of the art technology is used to fabricate the appliance which is customised to each person and the shape of their teeth. They work in a similar way to conventional braces, but patients enjoy the fact that no-one knows they are wearing them.

Incognito is relatively exclusive as additional training is required by a Specialist Orthodontist to become Incognito Certified. Secret Smile Orthodontics in Yorkshire are delighted to be one the few in the region to offer this technique.

Ceramic braces are tooth-coloured braces which are fixed to the outside of the teeth. They are the cosmetic version of the 'train-track' style braces and work in exactly the same way.

Patients looking for orthodontists in Yorkshire will enjoy the fact that Secret Smile Orthodontics able to offer some affordable ways to pay for your treatment including Interest-free and low cost payment plans.
