Dublin Invisalign provider offers clear braces alternatives

Dublin area dentist, Dr. Munira Lokhandwala of StarBrite Dental, encourages her patients to speak to her about the many restorative and cosmetic treatments available in her state-of-the-art practice. Using some of the latest technologies and techniques, she can provide patients with a solution to dental concerns, whether it is in regards to the health or the beauty of the smile. When patients are dealing with misalignment of the dental arch or the bite, they may avoid speaking to their dentist about repairing the smile for fear of being told they need traditional orthodontics. However, Dr. Munira Lokhandwala is happy to provide patients with an alternative known as Invisalign.

Instead of using metal brackets and wires attached to the teeth, Invisalign uses plastic aligner trays that are see-through. These trays look similar to whitening trays provided either over-the-counter or through the dental office for brightening the smile. However, they are much more precise and fit snug over the dental arch. This allows them to reposition the teeth gently into better alignment. Invisalign uses a series of trays in which each one is worn for two weeks before the next is used. Progressing through the trays, patients can slowly move their teeth and reduce spaces, gaps, crooked teeth, and misalignment within the dental arch.

Invisalign has many advantages, which make it a highly desirable option for our patients. Invisalign is:

• Clear and discreet
• Comfortable
• Fast
• Effective
• Affordable
• Easy to use
• Simple to clean
• Removable

Many patients are able to have Invisalign done instead of going to a specialist for an orthodontic evaluation. The best candidates are those with mild to moderate misalignment. This treatment can be used for both tooth alignment and bite adjustment.

If you are seeking a qualified Invisalign provider in the Dublin area, take the time to contact Dr. Munira Lokhandwala at StarBrite Dental today. She can advise you as to whether you are an appropriate candidate for Invisalign and speak with you about the process and what to expect before, during, and after treatment.
