Orthodontics at Pizzarello and Silvestro Family Dentistry

Orthodontics

In the past, getting braces has meant years of painful adjustments and struggling with self-image. But since 1999, Invisalign has literally changed the face of orthodontics for over half a million satisfied patients.

Instead of wires or bands attached to the outside of your teeth where the world can see them, Invisalign treatment utilizes cutting edge technology to prepare a series of clear plastic molds of your teeth during each stage of alignment. Every two weeks, we will check on your progress and give you the next mold, or "aligner," to keep your treatment on track.

The aligners are removable, making for easier eating, brushing and flossing. They move your teeth into place gradually, but in a much shorter length of time than normal braces – you'll achieve results in six months to a year with Invisalign.

Invisalign can improve the smiles of anyone with crossbites, overbites, underbites, crowded teeth or teeth that are spaced too far apart. In some case Invisalign may not be able to achieve the sufficient changes to the dentin sufficient to improve the patient's smile.

In some cases Invisalign may not be the best option to align a patient's dentition. In these circumstance the patient has the option of seeking traditional orthodontics with a specialist or Dr. Pizzarello can place clear brackets and wires in the office. These cases are usually completed in 6 months or less and can be completed with significant savings to the patient vs. traditional orthodontic care. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you are interested in straight teeth.
