Mississauga dentist answers, what is Invisalign?

Posted By: Dr. Rina M. Kotecha | Published On: Jun 12, 2019 | Invisalign

Several benefits are associated with a straight, aligned smile. Dental arches that are overcrowded and misaligned can result in a higher risk of developing cavities and periodontal disease. Misaligned bites may cause excessive wear on the natural teeth, and can reduce chewing and biting efficiency. Many patients with misaligned teeth are also well aware of the negative effect it can have on the appearance of the smile. Aesthetics and functionality are important when it comes to the teeth, and Dr. Kotecha of Dentistry on 10 provides orthodontic services such as Invisalign to patients in the Mississauga area who want to realign their teeth.

Invisalign is a revolutionary way for patients to realign the teeth and bite without the use of metal bracket and wire braces. Conventional braces can hide a smile for months-sometimes even years-to move teeth into a more desirable position. They can also be uncomfortable, and many adult patients are embarrassed to have traditional braces. Invisalign provides a wonderful aesthetic alternative. This system uses clear aligner trays that are worn day and night to reposition the teeth gently. This method allows patients to enjoy a discreet way of addressing misalignment comfortably.

Invisalign has several benefits over traditional orthodontics. It can be used for mild to moderate misalignment, and it allows individuals to achieve results without feeling embarrassed. The clear aligner trays are comfortable, easy to wear, and are removable, allowing patients to enjoy their favorite foods and candies and care for their teeth properly. This improves oral health, as it allows patients to brush and floss without having to work around brackets and wires. Additionally, Invisalign cost and treatment time is similar to that of conventional orthodontics.

Dr. Kotecha is pleased to offer her patients this wonderful alternative to traditional braces, and can help both teenagers and adults achieve a more beautiful smile with Invisalign. Contact Dentistry on 10 today to learn more about Invisalign and the ways in which it can assist you in enhancing and even transforming the appearance and functionality of your smile!

Procedure – Gum Disease Testimonial
Video Transcript

Hi, my name is Naren. I have been coming to dentistry on 10 for at least five years, probably a lot longer than that. I first heard about Doctor Rena, through a friend of mine who was my roommate back in college and the, the, thing that attracted me to her right off the bat is she went to Harvard of course, you know Harvard is one of the top schools in the world, so you know studying at Harvard and Learning dentistry Harvard, I’ve never met anybody who went to Harvard, so that was the number one thing. But when I came here, it’s not the Harvard that I ended up staying here for. It’s because she’s a very caring person and she has a team that really is caring. So, for example, you know I, I, have some health conditions and you know taking care of my gums is really, really, important and I’m like not that good at taking care of myself. So you know she just, just, stuck with me, just kept at me and, you know, just taught me things and talk to me about things and you know. And when I did, you know, kind of mess up and you know, get gum disease again. You know she you know, stuck with me. So, like for me personally, I know people come for dentistry for lots of reasons, some people you know, care about their smile and things like that. For me personally, it’s the health because I have a history of health issues in my family and I know the importance of, you know, taking care of your gums and you overall mouth and health so I would strongly recommend Doctor Rena if you really care about your health. If you really want somebody who’s not just trying to, you know, give you things you don’t need, but really, who’s trying to focus on what’s good for you, helping you achieve your goals. She’s very caring, very, very patient, very, very, gentle and, and, she’s there for you. So, it’s almost like having a partner in health who’s working with you to make your life better. So, we all need it, and especially as we get older when we are in our 40s and 50s, we need to take care of our health and without doctor Rena I don’t think I would have the comes I have and I don’t think I would be working on my health. Thank you very much Doctor Rena and I would, absolutely without a hesitation, recommend anybody and my entire family comes here as well as my two kids and My wife. So, thank you for being an amazing dentist and thank you for caring about people who live in the neighbourhood and their health.
