Saira Kahn, finalist in the first BBC ‘The Apprentice’ series and current presenter of ITV’s ‘Loose Women’ and Martin Lewis’ ‘Money Show’ is about to begin Invisalign treatment to straighten her teeth.

Though very self confident and seemingly assured, Saira is actually self conscious about her protruding teeth and actively sought out Invisalign treatment to help her to increase her confidence.

"I am delighted and very excited to be using Invisalign clear aligners. I am finally going to get my teeth straightened and gain the confidence to smile without feeling self conscious or nervous. I love smiling and laughing, but have found that in photographs I don't smile as much and tend to keep my mouth closed and cover up my teeth. I like to think that I am a confident woman, but for me confidence comes from being the best that I can be and that includes me looking my best and feeling good about myself.”

Many people believe it is too late to straighten their teeth when they reach adulthood; they believe the time to wear fixed, visible braces are the teenage years when tooth straightening is an acceptable rite of passage.  However, Saira, who is 45, has chosen to correct the alignment of her teeth with Invisalign clear aligners in the knowledge that the treatment is discreet and her day to day media activities can continue unimpeded.
