Straighter teeth without the metal!



     

Forget the gunmetal-gray strapping -- it's not the only way to get straight teeth. That's essentially the marketing pitch behind a new type of orthodontic device that promises a straight smile while being easy on the eyes.

And now the appliances are being made available to the "Teenage" segment of our patient base. This is a new breakthrough with design components and benefits specifically geared toward the teenager.

Invisalign Teen aligners are designed with the input of leading orthodontists using cutting-edge technology.

  • Addresses teens' unique needs, including the eruption of new molars
  • Designed utilizing the technology of Invisalign aligners, which have been used to treat nearly one million Invisalign patients to date
  • Used in thousands of practices worldwide

There are lots of no-no's when it comes to traditional metal braces. But not with Invisalign Teen.

  • Take them out and eat what you want, when you want
  • Play sports without the worry of metal braces
  • Get up to six individual replacement aligners in case you lose one

Straighter teeth can lead to a healthier mouth. With Invisalign you can brush and floss normally, which can lead to:

  • Healthier gums
  • Less chance of plaque, tooth decay and gum disease
  • Fresher breath

That means you can:

  • Look great all year long, from school pictures to prom
  • Perform music and theatre
  • Give speeches and presentations

...and feel confident knowing the only way most people will know your straightening your teeth is if you show them!

Align Technology, says its 3D computer imaging and manufacturing systems are key to straightening adult teeth without uncomfortable metal braces. Their system, called Invisalign, utilizes 3D scanning hardware, automatic surfacing software, 3D animation programs, and rapid manufacturing systems --powered in part by Geomagic technology --to produce customized, removable, clear plastic appliances called aligners. Combined with an orthodontist's treatment plan, these retainerlike aligners provide an innovative alternative to traditional braces.

The Invisalign process uses a series of clear, plastic molds to gradually move the teeth. The shape of the molds -- and hence the final position of the straightened teeth -- is determined by creating a three-dimensional movie of each patient's mouth. It simulates, from beginning to end, the stages the teeth will go through as they're adjusted.

The manufacturer of the system, Align Technology, Incorporated, of Sunnyvale, Calif., says the molds offer a more efficient way of straightening teeth, because at different stages in the process, only the teeth that need to be moved are moved.

You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move little by little, week by week  until they have straightened to the final position we have prescribed. You'll visit us about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.

Invisalign treatment is a form of orthodontic treatment.  What better person to bring you this technology than and American Board Certified Orthodontist?

Ask us if you or your son or daughter are a candidate for Invisalign Technology! 

Healthy Tips

  

Fruit Juice for Aging Skin:


Ever since Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) have been found to reduce tiny facial lines and fade age spots on the skin, beauty products worldwide are including them in skin creams in the highest concentration the FDA will allow. AHA is made from the juices of citric acid fruits. Higher and more effective dosages are used by Dermatologists and other medical professionals for out-patient skin treatments. AHA reverses sun damage and imparts a more youthful glow to the skin but it cannot get rid of deep lines or sags.
