Straight White Teeth!
Everyone wants straight white teeth,
says DR ERNEST REX TAN, but not
everyone is prepared to undergo the
long and relatively arduous process of
orthodontic correction. The good news
is that it’s possible to achieve straight,
white teeth in a visit or two.
“We don’t need to shift your teeth to
give you a beautiful Hollywood smile,”
he explains. “But we can resolve a
wide range of issues – missing teeth,
discolouration, gaps, disproportionately
shaped teeth, crookedness and much
more – all in a single procedure over
two visits. Even protruded, retruded or
collapsed front teeth can be restored
to perfection. In fact, full mouth
reconstruction is a regular part of what
we do.”
Straight White Teeth is an integral part
of the Smile Inc. makeover, he says, “It
is the advanced application of dental
techniques to align and beautify the
teeth, including the selective contouring
of the teeth by means of applying
materials such as porcelain and resin
to them. Because no two mouths
are the same, the treatment is highly
individualised.”
“Best of all,” he adds, “excellent
results can be achieved in as few as one
or two visits, as opposed to a number
of years.”
Many adults cannot contemplate
spending years with braces in their
mouths (plus the long-term wearing
retainers after that), either because
of the perceived pain and discomfort,
or because they feel that it would
be awkward or inappropriate in their
professional lives – or perhaps just
because it takes too long. If you want
to look your best for your upcoming
wedding, or for a career-making
presentation, you may not be able to
afford that kind of time.

What’s more, as Straight Teeth allows
your mouth to retain its original shape,
there’s no need for the kind of retainers
that orthodontics patients have to wear
for years to stop their teeth drifting out
of alignment.
