She was getting married soon so wanted to get her treatment completedbefore the wedding. Her main concerns were with the alignment and the colour of her teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She had previously had orthodontics as a teenager; however she was not completely happy with the result, and after losing her retainer her teeth started to move again. This is a very common problem we encounter &#8211; most of our adult teeth straightening patients had braces when younger but stopped wearing their retainers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alpa&#8217;s main issues were her crowded lower teeth, spaces between her upper teeth and the colour of her teeth. After a comprehensive assessment, Ronit identified that the spaces were caused by missing ipper second incisors on both sides.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image text-center\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Alpa-before-after-jpg-624x666-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Alpa-before-after-jpg-624x666-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Alpa-before-after-jpg-624x666-1.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Alpa-before-after-jpg-624x666-1-281x300.jpg 281w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Through detailed treatment planning, we developed a solution for Alpa. The treatment combined clear aligner teeth straightening using Invisalign, Boutique home whitening, fixed and removable retainers and then composite bonding (where a coloured resin is applied to teeth) to improve the final appearance of her teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole process took nine months, afterwhich Alpa was thoroughly happy with the result and ready to get married with the great smile she wanted for the big day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our aim at Brightside Dental is to carry out minimally invasive treatment, ensuring we maximise cosmetic outcomes whilst preserving the health of the teeth . Alpa\u2019s case did not require any extractions, and the composite bonding did not require the use of any drilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to find out more about how we can improve your smile, please contact us on 020 88884401.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image text-right\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Dentist-Profile-Dr-RP-2-624x395-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"395\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Dentist-Profile-Dr-RP-2-624x395-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2197\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Dentist-Profile-Dr-RP-2-624x395-1.png 624w, https:\/\/www.brightsidedental.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Dentist-Profile-Dr-RP-2-624x395-1-300x190.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alpa was recommended to see Dr Ronit Patel at Brightside Dental by a friend and wanted to improve the look of her smile.
