Clear Aligners - Custom models of your teeth will be used to create your treatment plan. The clear aligner software allows us to see how your teeth will move into their final positions. A sequence of aligners designed to move your teeth through each stage of your treatment will be created. The aligners may have a power ridge that, where needed, puts extra force on certain teeth. This will be placed on the tooth with tooth colored material that locks the tray into place to en...courage tooth and root movement. Treatment time varies, but most people receive 20 or 30 sets of aligners. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, and then replace them with the next set in the series. After the series of aligners is finished, your dentist or orthodontist will determine if more aligners are needed or if you can transition into retainers that will be worn at night to maintain the teeth’s alignment.

Countdown to FALL! Is your smile ready for all the upcoming festivities?

Tooth Decay - caused by the action of bacteria on the foods you eat. Thousands of bacteria exist in everyone’s mouth. Most of these bacteria are beneficial, but some of them form tightly-knit colonies called plaque, which is the sticky, colorless film that develops constantly on your teeth. The bacteria in plaque survive by digesting the foods you eat, specifically the ones that are broken down into simple sugars. These include candy and sweets, as well as other high-carbohydrate foods like pasta, bread, cereals, milk, dried fruits, juices, and sweetened drinks.
