Well-respected dentist in Philadelphia provides a clear alternative to traditional metal braces

Does the thought of metal brackets and wires make you cringe? If you live in the Philadelphia area, there is no need to be concerned about seeking treatment to achieve straighter teeth. Imagine an orthodontic solution to misalignment and crooked teeth without metal. There is no need to daydream because we offer this solution at David Spilkia Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. One of our clear alternatives to traditional orthodontics is Invisalign. The treatment is appealing to teenagers and adults, who prefer an innovative, barely noticeable method to achieve their ideal smiles.
 
Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment. It involves professional grade clear and comfortable plastic aligners that are changed every two weeks. They are numbered in the sequence you should wear them. You visit dentist Dr. David Spilkia about every six weeks so he can monitor the progress of treatment. In 12 to 18 months, you can bid farewell to aligners and say, “Hello,” to your new gorgeous smile.

We will explain this simple treatment in the following steps:

1. Give us a call. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Spilkia so you can explore your candidacy for Invisalign.
    
2. Visit us. At your appointment, Dr. Spilkia will review your medical history. He will want to discuss your goals to determine if Invisalign is right for you. Then, he will examine your mouth, teeth, gums, and jawbone. This may involve x-rays. Rest assured many teenagers and adults are candidates for treatment. Dr. Spilkia will devise a plan that outlines the procedure, what can be expected, and how to care for the trays and oral health throughout treatment. We then take impressions of your teeth, which are used to customize your aligners.
    
3. Come back. Congratulations! Your Invisalign trays have arrived. Dr. Spilkia will ensure they look and feel great. Your journey toward the smile of your dreams has begun.
    
4. Rock your new smile. Twelve to 18 months may have flown by. It is time to show the world your new, beautiful smile.
