As a teenager myself I had braces, so I know what it feels like to experience a lot of pain to get a great result. When I became a practicing orthodontist in 2002, I made it my personal mission to help my patients get an amazing smile but without the pain that used to come with orthodontics.   Today’s copper, nickel and titanium wires create less painful braces visits but what has really eliminated the need for Advil or Tylenol during orthodontic treatment is Invisalign. For parents who have daughters who are nervous or scared about painful orthodontic visits, Invisalign … Continued

Will Myobrace Work for My Child?

Here are some great examples of what Myobrace pre-orthodontic treatment has accomplished with a motivated child and a supportive family! Crowding:   This 11 year old boy had extremely crowded teeth in the upper and lower jaws. After just 18-months of using Myobrace treatment, the patient has avoided the need for extractions and reduced his time with braces. Correcting the poor oral habits that caused his crooked teeth also assisted in improving overall jaw and facial development. Open Bite with Spacing:   As you can see, this 7 year old girl had severe spacing and an extreme open bite. Her parents had … Continued

Take a Different Approach with Myobrace

| by | Blog | 0 comments:

It seems most children these days are developing crowded teeth. Although some symptoms can appear as young as 3 years old, dentists recommend waiting until the child is older to treat with braces and possibly adult tooth extractions. Since most parents are not aware of alternative treatments, they accept this advice and hold off treatment until their child is around 12 to 14 years old. This does not solve the issue permanently and once the braces are removed, the teeth will almost certainly relapse and crowd again, especially if the child does not wear their retainer! Crowded teeth are a … Continued

Why Does My Child Have Crooked Teeth?

| by | Blog | 0 comments:

From our education and clinical experience, environment actually affects children’s face and teeth development quite a lot. Teeth grow into a straight position when there’s a balance of forces between the tongue on the inside and lips and cheeks on the outside. When there’s an imbalance of these forces, due to improper tongue posture, the teeth are guided into crooked positions. Often the only way to correct crooked teeth is with two years of braces. For many children, they also have to have 2 or 4 adult teeth removed or even jaw surgery. There’s a more natural way to treat … Continued

Here are some things to consider when choosing an orthodontist over a general … Continued

What Is Invisalign?

| by | Blog | 0 comments:

Invisalign clear aligners have been around for the last 2 years. Invisalign consists of a sequence of wearing customized plastic removable appliances that are used to move teeth into a straighter position. We used to take impressions or mouldings of the teeth but have now found better accuracy with our iTero digital scanner. The iTero does not scan your teeth with radiation but rather with light. Shelby or Natasha can complete the scan in just a few short minutes. The scan is comfortable, especially for those of us who have a sensitive gag reflex. We send this scan to Invisalign … Continued
