Look who's got braces!

This is British singer Estelle, currently nominated for a Brit award for "American Boy" which was a massive hit last year. She is wearing some aesthetic ceramic braces and already you can see an improvement in her teeth. She says "This was a me thing. I've wanted braces since i was 20." She even says it has not affected kissing! I think it's great that she is not afraid to smile and show them off.

What makes a smile?

Click the title to link to a short article about how to tell a real smile, called a "Duchenne smile". I often notice how my patients smile more naturally on the "after" photos than the "before" photos, it can actually make their apperance quite different (not just the teeth!).
