If your goal is to make your smile more attractive, but your issue is that your teeth are crooked, you may worry that your only treatment option is one that depends on fixed metal braces. Through traditional orthodontic treatment, patients can see welcome changes over time, but this is an approach that calls for the permanent placement of an appliance that noticeably changes the way you look. It can also create potential issues with your oral hygiene and ability to enjoy different foods. To enjoy a more conservative solution, talk to your Virginia Beach, VA dentist about using Invisalign aligners to make your desired smile improvements. Through the use of these appliances, you can take care of the issues you have with malocclusion while relying on aligners that are hard to see and easy to remove! (more…)
Should You Undergo A Periodontal Cleaning?
When you see your dentist for a regular checkup, your smile will be carefully cleaned of any plaque or tartar buildup that developed since your last appointment. The combination of reviews and cleanings help people avoid troubles with their oral health over time, which means you can preserve your happy, confident smile with greater ease when you book treatments regularly. At some appointments, your Virginia Beach, VA dentist can recommend a different service—instead of a typical teeth cleaning, you can undergo a more thorough periodontal cleaning that fights bacteria that are gathering below your gum line. By providing this service, we can help you recover from gingivitis before you have complications that make your periodontal health harder to manage.
