If you have read any of our case of the month articles in the past, you will know that we love the Social 6 lingual brace. We have been using this brace for over 16 years to straighten teeth in Fulham and across Europe ( yes, people do travel for this!). The major advantages are that the brace is placed on the inside of the teeth making it the only invisible brace on the market. Treatments are also super quick at usually 3-4months and certain tooth movements are made for lingual braces. Just check out our case of the month for June 2026 below and all will be explained.

Porcelain veneers are still regarded as one of the main cosmetic dentistry techniques. In skilled hands, they can look just like teeth. Now, we are not talking 'Turkey Teeth' here! You may have seen many social media sites showing smile makeovers in Turkey with super white 'veneers'. In reality, these veneers are actually crowns that cover the entire tooth surface after the teeth have been cut down to little stumps. This is not cosmetic dentistry but butchery, to be blunt. 

Porcelain veneer treatment should be minimally invasive preserving as much tooth surface as possible. This way, the results are not only biologically safe but also life like and natural. The key detail is in the planning and close collaboration with the dental laboratory and technicians. Our case of the month for February shows a great case following these key principles.

One of our most popular cosmetic dental treatments is the Social 6 lingual brace. This is the truly invisible brace being placed behind the teeth so that no one will know that you are straightening your teeth! Most treatments only take three to four months. Get teeth ready for the Summer!
 

One of the most common comments we encounter when discussing Invisalign with our patients is 'can Invisalign really close large gaps between my teeth?'. The reason for this is that most dentists will say that only fixed braces have enough 'force' to close spaces with any certainty. However, with careful planning and using the latest technology available, we can predictably close gaps and improve the bite using Invisalign.
