Digital progressive smile design
31 Jan 2014 | Clinical Excellence
Digital Smile Design is making a come back in a very smart and intelligent form through the use of live video, cameras and keynote presentations. I commend the users of this technique as it is clearly a far better form of smile design planning than just using plain static before after pictures with someone else's smile stitched into place. However,...
Tooth wear, the Dahl principle, the Inman Aligner and a real option for interceptive dentistry
Dr Tif Qureshi Case Report
31 Oct 2013 | Clinical Excellence
In my opinion, simple anterior orthodontics has been overlooked for many years as potentially one of the most important and useful areas in dentistry. This can be highlighted by the suggestion that many dentists simply do not identify or recognize that the increased crowding in the anterior region over time can lead to, or is linked to, a collapse ...

Simple tooth alignment is rapidly becoming accepted as the norm in cases that previously would have been treated with porcelain veneers.

Timing becomes a vital part of the treatment w...

The concept of progressive smile design
30 Sep 2011 | Clinical Excellence
Cosmetic dentistry has been around in various forms for several decades now. The biggest catalyst was arguably Pincus’ 1937 invention - the porcelain veneer.1 This gave Hollywood actors a short term solution that would hang on just long enough for the director to say “cut”. At the time, the lack of any real bond strength meant they were only ...
Realign then design: Smile creation for misaligned dentition
31 Jul 2011 | Clinical Excellence
If the nineties were the decade of the ultra white Hollywood smile, the noughties seem to have ushered in an era of more refined tastes in smile design. While there is still demand for whiter teeth, many patients are now asking for a more natural look than the dead straight over-bright identikit smiles of the last decade. In keeping with this more ...

The following article is Part 2 in a series discussing the use of the Inman Aligner as a tool for minimally invasive cosmetic dentistry.1 The first article (published in November/December 2010) demonstrated that standalone treatments offer patients an alternative to both fixed braces, which are unsightly and have long treatment times; and to expens...
