 GENERAL DENTISTRY A LIFETIME OF SMILES! As a general dentist, we are seeing a demand for straighter, whiter, healthier teeth and gums. Straight teeth are not just for esthetics. Having straight teeth begins as the foundation of a healthy mouth, including esthetics. By aligning teeth properly, chewing forces are spread more evenly and we see a lot less stress on individual teeth. This leads to less wear, bone loss, gum disease, mobility in teeth, fewer fractures, less toothaches, headaches, and less dental expenses! We’ve transformed our philosophy of care to prevent recurring dental issues with straight teeth rather than continuing to patch failing or reoccurring dental problems. With Invisalign, the average treatment time ranges from 6-9 month. However, now with new technology called propel rapid orthodontics, we are able to cut even that short time in half! The propel product creates inflammation around the teeth we want to move and softens the bone making it easier to move teeth before the jaw bone regains its normal density 3 months later. See also
