Although having a beautiful, healthy smile and a proper bite helps you avoid dental issues, some adults are reluctant to get orthodontic treatments. They think braces are not effective at their age or are embarrassed to be seen wearing them. But our adult patients are pleased to discover that we provide various teeth-straightening treatments designed exclusively for them. These address their particular concerns while correcting their teeth more quickly, subtly, and comfortably.
We offer various dental braces to straighten teeth for children, teens, and adults. Consider the aesthetics, treatment time, and benefits when choosing one.
Advanced clear braces today are just as effective as metal braces. Combined with white wires and clear elastic ties, they are much less visible than metal brackets and are an excellent option for patients that want their braces to be less noticeable. They are also highly stain-resistant and do not discolor like the clear braces of the past. With our selection of clear braces, we can meet each patient’s specific treatment needs.
Thanks to Invisalign®, many of our patients that have always wanted to straighten their teeth but have never considered using traditional braces can do so happily and comfortably.
Invisalign® is the clear way to gradually straighten teeth without braces using a series of clear aligners made of lightweight plastic that fit your teeth with ease and comfort. Aligners are detachable; however, they must be worn for 20 to 22 hours daily, excluding when you eat, clean your teeth, floss, or go to special events. A new set of aligners is replaced every two weeks, and an office visit usually takes place every eight weeks.
Invisalign® is an outstanding alternative to traditional braces for treating patients with orthodontic issues like crowded and widely spaced teeth. Just like any removable orthodontic appliance, the trays must be worn at all times, as prescribed, for the teeth to move. Treatment usually lasts for no more than a year.
In addition to near invisibility, the advantages of Invisalign® include:
Dr. Mendivil has earned the title Invisalign® Premier Provider due to his expertise. He is knowledgeable about the intricacies of the Invisalign® process, having treated and completed treatment for hundreds of patients—the majority in less than a year. His treatment methods effectiveness is primarily due to his clinical knowledge, experience, and careful patient selection.
