Tim Bradstock-Smith introduces the Inman Aligner and what it can do in aesthetic dentistry

Cosmetic dentistry in the UK has seen an explosion in demand in the last 10 years and, if this follows the US model, then we can expect further – but things are a bit different here. UK patients tend to seek more of a natural look and, although the most popular shades are still very light, patients tend to shy away from the whitest of Hollywood whites.
Also, a smaller proportion of UK patients have undergone orthodontics in their teens, so a large number of cases we see are moderate-to-severe crowding and rather less ortho relapse cases than in the US. This has presented us with a set of challenges peculiar to the UK: Demand is high for natural, believable and highly aesthetic smiles from a public with a rapidly increasing ‘dental IQ’, yet many cases, especially those with moderate to severe crowding, are highly complex.
