There are good reasons people choose Invisalign over traditional braces. They are not noticeable, unless someone looks very closely at your teeth. This maintains your confidence while you achieve your straighter smile. They are very comfortable to wear with no mouth irritation. There are no wires to be checked or adjusted, and never any headgear. All this means fewer trips to the dentist and an easy time during treatment.
You can eat whatever you like, as the aligners are removable for eating and cleaning. You won't have to give up certain foods, but continue to enjoy them.
Don't hide your smile because of stains, gaps, or misshapen teeth! Remake it! Porcelain veneers can take care of these problems in as little as two visits. In that short amount of time your teeth can look as if they had years of straightening. We use the best dental ceramic to bond to your teeth and give you an attractive smile.
Veneers are also the answer to chipped or cracked teeth, or to reshape a tooth. The veneer can match the exact shade of your other teeth, so it blends in and looks completely natural.
People with diabetes are prone to oral infections. You should get dental checkups at least twice a year. Let your dentist know you have diabetes and what medicines you take.

Well-controlled diabetes contributes to a healthy mouth. If you have poorly controlled or high blood sugar, your risk increases for dry mouth, gum disease, tooth loss, and fungal infections like thrush. Since infections can also make blood sugar rise, your diabetes may become even harder to control. Keeping your mouth healthy can help you manage your blood sugar.

The general assumption among most patients is that teeth are usually lost due to decay. However, the main reason is gum (periodontal) disease. Sometimes there are symptoms, but sometimes there are no warning signs until you are at the point of losing your teeth. Bleeding gums and loose teeth are symptoms that should be addressed immediately with our care. Advanced gum infection may require surgery, but less severe cases can be reversed with nonsurgical methods.
