Modern Orthodontic Treatment: A Great Value and Investment in Your Health and Smile

As a central feature of the face, smiles are hard to miss. Within the smile, the front teeth are also unmistakable. This is an ideal situation for patients who like how the teeth in their “smile zone” look; however, for patients with crowded, crooked teeth in very noticeable areas, the appearance of these teeth is a source of discontentment and embarrassment. Fortunately, Dr. Roya Shoffet-Yaghoubian offers many orthodontic treatment options for these patients from the Royal Dental Practice office in West Hills Los Angeles, California.

Many patients feel that these treatments are well worth the cost. They prevent the need for more costly restorative work by addressing misalignment that can lead to complications such as extensive wear and tear on the teeth. Plus, you’ll feel like a million bucks! That feeling is priceless.

An Investment in Your Health and Happiness

An evaluation informs the development of your one-of-a-treatment plan and recommendations. Modern orthodontic patients have many options when it comes to straightening their teeth and/or fixing more extensive bite issues. Conventional braces are fixed or secured to the teeth. This system of wires and brackets places consistent forces on the teeth to incrementally reposition. Today’s braces can be designed to be lighter, more comfortable to wear, and more discreet (due to the use of clear or tooth-colored brackets and wires).

Clear aligner therapy uses the same general principle as conventional orthodontic systems like braces. But, instead of using metal hardware fixed to the teeth, clear aligners are oral appliances that slip over the teeth. They can be removed for comfortable eating and effective brushing and flossing. So, your teeth stay clean and healthy throughout treatment. Additionally, these aligners are made from advanced, flexible, smooth, and transparent plastic. They are comfortable and not visible when you smile.

Dr. Shoffet uses Candid™ aligners, which stand out favorably from other aligner products on the market today. They are cost-effective, move the teeth to get the smile you want, and generally require fewer trips to the dentist’s office. It should be noted that patients with cosmetic concerns involving a few teeth at the front of the mouth typically pay less for treatment, as they do not require as many aligners or as extensive of treatment as individuals with more advanced bite problems. Treatment time is generally also shorter for those patients with less complex needs.
