Aesthetic Dentistry Awards 2018

 

Well it’s that time of year again, we were eagerly waiting on an email from the organisers of the Aesthetic Dentistry Awards on whether or not we would be finalists in the categories we had entered.

We sent in all our entries last December, the criteria was of high standard and our results were pretty hard to pick from. We had some great results in 2017 but we had to pick the most outstanding patients with the most dramatic results.

There are 21 award categories in total, we are finalists in the following:

Orthodontics – Adult fixed

Orthodontics – Child/Teenager fixed

Orthodontics – Invisalign

Interdisciplinary Team

Best Aesthetic Practice

Patient Choice Award

For all the categories we submitted patient photos before/after treatment, patient notes, treatment plans, procedures, practice photos, team photos and testimonials from our patients. We have had a lot of hard working patients that attend the practice and they have achieved amazing results the photographs speak for themselves. We really enjoyed putting these entries together because we could reflect on the great work we achieved in 2017. All of the patients we made happier and more confident in their new smiles.

The Aesthetic Dentistry Awards is a fantastic ceremony recognising excellence in Dentistry. It is a great night to celebrate all the hard work and great results we had that year.  Seven of the Swords Ortho team are all setting out to London on the 23rd of March. We are obviously delighted to be finalists but it would be amazing to bring home an award. We will keep you updated on the nights events. Wish us luck, we are hoping 2018 is our year.

Swords Orthodontics October Entertainment Round-Up

Here's a hit list of what keeping the Swords Ortho team amused over the next few weeks:

Celebrity Traitors UK (BBC)

This is a big hit with most of the team. Richard E Grant is on fire!

Great British Bake Off (C4)

Big on the front desk. I’m told that Nigella isn’t as good as Prue, and Prue wasn’t as good as Mary, but it’s early days and maybe Nigella will work out okay.

Battlestar Galactica (new version on Prime)

As a child I was really into Battlestar Galactica, although it wasn’t shown on UTV. It was one of those shows a space-mad kid knew …

When's a good age to wear braces?

The other day I wrote about when’s the best age to wear braces. It’s a long answer to a short question.

There’s also a shorter answer.

The best age to wear braces is a combination of when you get the most effective treatment and you want that treatment enough to make it effective.

  • Most of the time I get parents that want their child to have the treatment that’s best for them and the child doesn’t mind wearing braces
  • Some braces work best when patients are growing at their fastest rate
  • Sometimes the parents and the child know they want braces but they’re not ready …
