Aesthetic Dentistry Award winners

16 Apr 2014 - Press Release

A surgeon and dentist at Stepping Hill Hospital have succeeded in winning one of dentistry’s  top national awards after helping a young woman from Stockport eat properly again.

Oral and maxillofacial surgeon Manu Patel and consultant dentist Maria McNally  were winners in the Interdisciplinary category at this year’s Aesthetic Dentistry Awards for their work on the orthodontic and jaw surgery case.

Their work helped to change the life of a woman with a severely misshapen jaw and teeth, which made eating uncomfortable and difficult. Maria helped to reposition the woman’s teeth with braces, before Manu was then able to complete the correction process with an operation on her jaws.

The result was a resounding success which has transformed the woman’s mouth and life for the better. She is delighted with the result and has been recommending the treatment for other patients with her condition.

The Aesthetic Dentistry Awards were announced at a ceremony in London, and  are judged purely on clinical expertise by fellow dentists and surgeons who are outstanding in their field.
