Advanced Technology To Improve Your Smile

Research has shown that the number one thing people find attractive in another person is their smile. Also, it's been proven that just by the act of smiling, your body releases endorphins, which in turn increases your overall self-esteem and happiness. So why wouldn't you want to keep your teeth healthy and show others your beautiful smile?

Using the most advanced and up to date techniques and technologies is ideal for any practice including orthodontics. The brand new Insignia digital impression system helps the orthodontist get a clearer view of the mouth. This technology allows the doctor to create a virtual, computer-generated replica of the hard and soft tissue in the mouth by using lasers and optical scanning instead of the traditional impression casts. This technology allows for highly customized products, such as brackets and retainers, to be customized to our patients.

But what if you want to be out of those braces faster? Not a problem. You can be fitted with the AcceleDent system. AcceleDent uses gentle micro-vibrations to bring more blood supply to the gums allowing one's teeth to shift and straighten faster. We've found that when our patients used AcceleDent for just 20 minutes a day, they were able have straight teeth three to four months faster than the patients who only used braces.

Teeth are not the only part of people's mouth an orthodontist should examine. They should also focuses on joint disorders in the jaw. These disorders can happen at any time in a person's life. Our bodies are meant to change as we age and our teeth and jaws are no exception. Doppler Auscultation technology, which is a hand-held device similar to an ultrasound, can also be used to listen to the sounds in the jaw joints. This non-invasive device helps the doctor in the detection, analysis and evaluation of possible temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.

If you are on the search for an orthodontist, make sure they have the most up-to-date technology in

their office.
