An Exceptional Dental Care

Dr. Poon Kee Hwang talks about the Newest discovery in the braces system.

First in Singapore

As an Orthodontist, I often meet patients who are unhappy with their smile but seem resigned to their fate of not having straight and beautiful teeth. ‘’Why?’’ I ask and the reply often is, ‘’ I am already working, I meet clients all the time, I can’t be seen wearing braces. Its unprofessional!’’ or ‘’ I have asked about Invisalign treatment. I am not a suitable candidate because my smile needs extractions to correct.’’ One patient exclaimed. ‘’ Did you watch the episode of Sex and the City where Miranda had ceramic braces and food got caught everywhere during her hot date? I can’t go through that!’’ Similar frustrations to an age old problem of straightening teeth the INVISIBLE way.

I then introduce this idea. What if there is a braces system that is hidden behind your teeth. It can’t be seen when you smile and talk. It can be applied to extraction cases, crooked teeth cases, smile with lots of gaps, ‘under-bite’ cases, for teeth that stick out and even cases that require jaw surgeries to straighten the face? The braces are fixed to the back of your teeth and are working to straighten your smile 24/7. Basically all the time and not just those times that you remember to wear the aligners. Treatment time is fast and you need not worry about food getting stuck for the whole world to see. Patients suddenly perk up, a twinkle enters their eyes and they want to know more.

Lingual braces are Hidden braces behind your teeth. This concept is not new. Just like basic telephone land lines that have been around for a really long time. From this foundation, add onto it the latest in technology and you get the birth of the newest iphones and android phones. The difference? Efficiency, convenience and we have never looked back!

Of all the Lingual (hidden) braces currently available, the Incognito System is the most advance, accurate and precise.
• Incognito is not just a type of braces, it is a System!
• It follows a detailed planning phase, customization-fabrication phase with the final result in mind.
• Incognito Lingual Braces are custom-made, using the latest prototyping machines and are suitable for all types of malocclusions, including braces for orthognathic (jaw) surgery.
• Incognito braces are designed only for your teeth and it is a PERFECT fit.
• Both the brackets and the wires of the Incognito appliance are manufactured individually with the latest state of the art CAD/CAM technology.

The remarkably flat design of the brackets provides maximum comfort and rapid adaptation to speech. Gold alloy is used. It is chosen as gold is a metal that can be cast and polished with supreme accuracy and is anti-allergenic.

The Incognito Lingual braces are designed with a modular concept. Each bracket structure is created by computer and allows individual components of the braces (base, bracket body, slot) to be positioned independently of one another. This makes the system unique and allows absolute customization to the anatomical needs of your teeth and smile.

Therefore the advantages of the Incognito Braces system are:
• Invisibility
• Allows all types of smile problems to be treated
• Incognito has the flattest and slimmest lingual braces design for comfort
• As a braces system, it is highly accurate; giving fast and precise tooth movement
Suddenly, the patient smiles back at me and looks hopeful. ‘’There is a way out after-all!’’ I am honored to be part of this journey with them.
