Seeing The Appeal Of Invisalign

The results of orthodontic treatment can appeal to people, but those who expect they will need metal braces to make the right corrections can be less excited by the adjustment itself. What you can discover is that you are actually eligible for care with a set of personalized Invisalign aligners. That means you have the ability to take on malocclusion while still preserving your appearance and avoiding the need to wear fixed aligners. At our Virginia Beach, VA dentist’s office, we can work with you on starting your adjustment, and we can help you understand your options for treatment if you are a good candidate for another cosmetic procedure.

When Treatment Calls For A Tooth Extraction

It is often possible to address problems with unhealthy teeth without the need to extract them.

In addition to carefully performing the extraction itself, we can discuss your options when it comes to replacing the tooth that has been lost. (more…)

Perks Of Choosing Invisalign Over Metal Braces

Are you interested in fixing problems with teeth spacing, but uneasy with the idea of wearing metal braces?
