Asheville, NC area dental practice offers invisible braces

A family dentistry practice is one that provides a wide range of services for both children and adults. Those who are faced with malocclusion often consider using orthodontic solutions to achieve the dream smile they’ve always wanted. However, covering the natural smile with metal brackets and wires is a solution many patients shy away from. Thanks to continued advances in dentistry and orthodontics, patients can now choose from a variety of alternatives. This may include our Invisalign treatment or even Six Month Smiles.

Invisalign is a way of treating mild to moderate misalignment of the teeth and bite. Invisalign uses trays that are fabricated from clear plastic and snap over the dental arch. They use gentle forces to push teeth into proper position within a short period of time. They are comparable in price with traditional orthodontics and much more comfortable. Patients feel less self-conscious with treatment options such as Invisalign because it is discreet. This is great for teenagers and adults.

Another option for patients with mild misalignment of the anterior teeth (front teeth) is Six Month Smiles. Within half a year, most patients can have a new smile. This is achieved with brackets and wires, but the wires are tooth-colored and the brackets are clear, so they are much less noticeable when placed on the teeth. Additionally, patients are not in their braces for very long.

Both Six Month Smiles and Invisalign are readily available for patients in our practice. We offer these state-of-the-art solutions for those who are interested in achieving the smiles they’ve always wanted without the hassle of traditional braces and visiting a specialist. Dr. Christopher Port and his team at the Family Dental Health of South Asheville can explain more about these options. Contact us today at . We welcome new patients who want to avoid the hassle of traditional solutions.
