As the demand for aesthetic dental treatments continues to rise, it is up to you as the practitioner to find new ways of providing for your patients. Orthodontic appliances such as the Inman Aligner offer a minimally invasive approach and highly effective results for patients with protruding or crowded anterior teeth.
Dr Abhishek Agarwal from Canada Water Dental Health in London, recently added the Inman Aligner to his treatment range.
“As a GDP I have seen a lot of interest from patients, both young and elderly, wanting to correct simple mal-alignment of their anterior teeth,” he says. “I would normally hesitate to recommend conventional braces for such cases, but one day a patient asked me why I didn’t offer the Inman Aligner treatment – I then had no choice but to find out for myself why it's one of the most talked about orthodontic systems in general dental practice.
“Having first come across the orthodontic appliance in the 'Dental Update' journal, I was quite impressed by the ABB (Align, Bleach and Bond) concept but thought my lack of orthodontic experience made it an unsuitable option for me. I was delighted to discover that no previous training was necessary in order to gain certification with the Inman Aligner.”
From here, Dr Agarwal decided to attend the hands-on training course for the Inman Aligner, which offers a complete overview of the appliance in a single day.
“It was one of the most well-organised training courses I have ever attended. The booking process, the pre-course preparation of material and instructions, as well as the course day itself, were all executed very systematically.
“The tutors were extremely knowledgeable and I felt that the course content started at a suitably basic level of orthodontics and gradually built up throughout the day. One-to-one discussion sessions were immensely helpful as the advice I received was tailored to my individual needs. Direct interaction with the laboratory personnel throughout the day provided another great benefit, and the course provided all the necessary information needed to get started right away.
“I left the course feeling very satisfied, excited and confident that I could now address the basic orthodontic needs of my patient base. Also, knowing that post-course support was available online from tutors and colleagues, provided me with added peace of mind.”
Looking at how the Inman Aligner has affected his everyday practise, Dr Agarwal is one of many advocates for the innovative appliance.
“I can already feel a positive change in my workplace,” he adds. “The course has sparked my interest in orthodontics and the results of my first few cases so far, seem promising.
“I can’t believe that I didn’t explore the true potential of the Inman Aligner system earlier. The training course is definitely a must for any GDP wishing to extend their scope of practise. The Inman Aligner is a straightforward, rapid and a very efficient method of obtaining remarkable results and the availability of laboratory support and the online discussion forum make it a truly exceptional orthodontic system.”
