Orthodontics

Monday, September 13th, 2010

To many people, the term orthodontics means painful and unsightly metal braces. There is an easier way to unnoticeably straighten teeth. Los Angeles cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kevin Sands provides his patients with Invisalign braces to unnoticeably straighten their teeth.

Invisalign uses a series of clear, plastic aligners to gently and gradually move your teeth into their proper positions. Each aligner is custom-made specifically for you and will fit comfortably in your mouth. You will wear the first aligner for two weeks and then replace it for the next aligner and wear that one for two weeks. This process will continue until you have worn each aligner.

The Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign has many benefits over traditional braces. These benefits include:

• You can remove the aligners when you eat, drink, and clean your teeth
• The aligners are clear and do not negatively call attention to your mouth
• The aligners will not cut or irritate your mouth, gums, or lips
• You can clean your teeth normally without hassle
• You can eat your normal diet

Invisalign and other Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures

You can further enhance your smile by combining other cosmetic dentistry procedures with your Invisalign treatment to create a custom smile makeover. Depending on your smile, you may have other dental problems that you would like to have corrected such as chips or cracks in your teeth or dull or discolored teeth. Dr. Sands will create a smile makeover that will correct these issues to further enhance your smile.

Invisalign may be a great option for you to enhance your smile and straighten your teeth. If you would like to schedule a consultation with Dr. Sands about Invisalign, please contact his cosmetic dentistry office serving patients in Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, California.
