At what age should my children first see a dentist?

We would like to see your children when they are about three years old to assess how their teeth are developing. Early dental care also gives us the opportunity to teach children proper dental hygiene to prevent future problems.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign transparent braces are an effective and aesthetic alternative to traditional metal braces. Invisalign uses a series of clear aligners that are custom-molded to fit your mouth. The nearly invisible aligners gradually reposition your teeth into a smile you'll be proud of.

With Invisalign, you remove your aligners to eat, brush, and floss. Change aligners every two weeks as your teeth move little by little. To eat, brush your teeth, or for a special occasion, simply remove the aligners. While undergoing Invisalign treatment, you’ll maintain the mature, professional image you’ve worked hard to achieve.
