Invisalign®: Tooth movement without braces
The best dental therapies are those that are the least invasive and most conservative
for the condition being corrected. Prosthodontists are specialists in the preservation of
teeth and their relationship to the upper and lower jaws. Invisalign® allows the doctors
of Specialized Dentistry of New Jersey to make orthodontic corrections without the need
for traditional braces or visits to the orthodontist’s office.
Teeth that are not aligned properly in your mouth create what dentists call “malocclusion.”
Left untreated, malocclusion can lead to periodontal disease and create abnormal amounts of
stress on teeth and jaws, which leads to premature wear.
Invisalign® is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. Aligners are
removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone
knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want. Many of our adult patients have never
considered traditional braces but are now happily and comfortably improving their smiles with
the Invisalign® system.
While many dentists offer Invisalign®, having your tooth movement managed by Prosthodontists
ensures that your outcome is not just an aesthetic improvement, but also a functional improvement.
Whether used alone or in conjunction with a more comprehensive restoration plan, Dr. Courey and Dr. Zagami
can help you achieve a healthy smile.
