Holidays are always something to look forward to, for the image conscious they can be the most exciting as well as the most stressful times of the year. Feeling good about how you look on holiday can boost your confidence and allow you to enjoy the sun rather than hideaway in the hotel room.
A few image problems people have before a holiday can be easily solved. Some will buy new clothes, get a new hair style and others may even decide that they need to lose weight. On the other hand different issues are not as simple to fix. Many are now looking to achieve their perfect holiday smile but are unsure about how to go about it. New clothes and a new style mean little if you are unable to smile with confidence for your photos.
One of the main reasons for leaving orthodontic issues untreated is the prospect of having to wear fixed braces and holiday photos are a prime example of why patients do not want to have them. They want the fantastic end result but are unwilling to compromise their appearance during treatment. Clearstep resolves this problem entirely.
Using ‘invisible’ braces and appliances a huge range of orthodontic issues can be treated while still allowing patients to look and feel great. The end result is achieved but the photos from holidays during treatment will only show the massive improvement, not the braces!
With new technologies and the increased use of social media, photos are now an essential when going on holiday. Friends and family want to see what you have been up to and the patient will also want to share where they have been.
Too many patients are unaware of the advances in cosmetic dentistry and still believe the only way to achieve their ideal smile is through fixed orthodontics. They need to be told that systems such as Clearstep are available to help make patients holiday preparations that much better.
