Helen Flanagan has undergone cosmetic orthodontic treatment to correct a misalignment.
The Coronation Street actor revealed on her Instagram account that she had a lingual fixed orthodontic appliance placed.
Cosmetic orthodontics
Helen previously underwent clear orthodontic aligner treatment in 2015 to correct her original misalignment.
Following successful treatment, the actor’s dentist placed a fixed lingual wire to aid alignment retention.
However, Helen’s fixed lingual retainer recently broke, causing her teeth to misalign once again, and prompting her to seek a second cosmetic orthodontic resolution.
Movement
‘I never smile showing my teeth!’ the 26-year-old actress explained.
‘My teeth used to be perfectly straight until my retainer broke and before I realised they had moved too much.
‘Had my brace put on today at the back of my teeth and I can’t wait to have my straight teeth back’.
