Having Invisalign braces fitted can make a big difference to the confidence levels of shy people, once dentist has said.
Dr Aly Kanani from Vancouver said she frequently sees patients who will not display their teeth when they smile and so become self-conscious.
"However, when they have completed treatment, they realise how different their smile is and they are proud to exhibit their teeth. I find it very rewarding," she commented.
Dr Kanani also said this is not a phenomenon only confined to children, as she treats a lot of adults who have also suffered with self-esteem problems as a result of misaligned teeth and who eventually come for Invisalign braces.
She concluded that positive changes in a person's smile can improve their entire attitude and their levels of success in life.
Last month, Dr Hamid Nassery from the Miami Beach Dental Institute told World News Report he also likes using Invisalign braces because of the effects they can have.
