Shamara Ferguson's Success Story:
Dear Dr. Dulski,
"When I first came to you seeking help for my teeth, I thought they were beyond repair. You always were positive and encouraging. You worked with me and I was able to get Invisalign. Quickly I saw improvement with my teeth.
Now my teeth are perfect! I never thought my smile could be so beautiful! Thanks for being patient and kind! You are a wonderful dentist. I will always recommend you to whomever may need dental treatment! Thanks again!"
Shamara Ferguson
To summarize the comparative benefits of Invisalign over braces, Invisalign uses clear aligners that are virtually invisible unlike unsightly metal brackets and wires of traditional braces. The smooth plastic aligners are comfortable to wear unlike the wires of braces which can irritate the mouth. Aligners are removable for easy cleaning unlike braces which require much effort when brushing and flossing. Finally, with Invisalign, you can eat whatever you want because the aligners are removable whereas braces have many food restrictions.

My Experience with Invisalign
by Terri
I'm in my late 40's with three teenage boys (two are still in braces, one has finished). My dentist has advised that I get braces for several years. Although my teeth don't look out of alignment, they don't meet correctly and are crowded on both the top and bottom. My bottom teeth overlap and I have an overbite. The crowding has caused some unusual wear and potential gum problems. The lack of meeting correctly resulting in a fractured tooth that required a crown.
Finally, after years of encouragement and the very expensive crown, I decided to seek an orthodontic opinion. I had the regular impressions and photos taken. I did talk with two different orthos before selecting one (our children's ortho doesn't take adults). My ortho reviewed my case and told me I was an Invisalign candidate. I could also do metal and ceramic. I choose Invisalign because of the cosmetic benefits.
The Pros of Invisalign in MY Opinion:
* They are nearly invisible. After the first week, no one has noticed that I'm wearing them. Family, friends, co-workers are completely unaware that I'm having my teeth corrected. I haven't had any wear problems of conventional braces -- torn cheeks or tongue, mouth sores, etc. I like being able to remove them for brushing and flossing as well as "special occasions". I remove them for all meals. I try to average 20 hours of wear per day. It isn't difficult. As a plus -- my snacking has been reduced substantially -- it just isn't worth taking them out to snack and then brush my teeth to put them back in. Like most folks who wear braces, I've brushed by teeth in some really tacky places.
* The other part of Invisalign that I really liked was knowing how long it would take and how things would look at the end. When you get the aligners back from the factory, they are marked 1 of xxx number -- which indicates the number of aligners for your treatment (you wear each aligner for 2 weeks). It's easy to calculate how long things will take. Naturally there is some flexibility depending upon how quickly your teeth move but my experience is that the estimate is right on the money.
* Additionally, they send a computer simulation of how your teeth will move during treatment so you can visually see what they will look like along the way as well as at the end. I was really motivated by the animation. My ortho mentioned that it's different than conventional braces in that Invisalign moves the back teeth first and finishes with the front teeth. If you looked at my smile today you wouldn't see any difference, although my bite and how my molars meet is very different than just a few months ago. I can hardly wait for my front teeth to move so I can see some actual results.
I really praised you for posting such a great Blog. The tonsil stones happen in the crypts of the tonsils since this is the only location where the stuff can collect and get lodged.
ReplyDeleteInvisalign is great for people who had braces at a younger age and had a relapse and want to get that great smile back. The great thing about Invisalign is that the aligners are removable for easy brushing and flossing. It is true most people don't realize your wearing them.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter's smile is the direct result of Dr Dulski's efforts, her compliance with his instructions on wearing her Invisalign retainers and keeping the re-care appointments scheduled especially for her personal needs.
ReplyDeleteGranted, it cost money. Personally, I think it was worth it - every time she smiles. wm
Remember the new rule of thumb once you have your teeth straightened. It is important to wear your retainers until you want your teeth to move. They will want to move back to their original position. Usually you wear them at night while sleeping.
ReplyDeleteThat is so true. I had braces 20 years ago an I was never told that I should wear my retainer for the rest of my life. Now my teeth hav moved and I need braces again. So please WEAR YOUR RETAINER NIGHTLY.
ReplyDeleteI had invisalign for almost 1 year. It was the best money i ever spent! It was painless and now my teeth are perfect! What a great experience. Thanks to your wonderful staff!!
ReplyDeleteInvisalign 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. Also, you can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth; and there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions.

Conventional metal braces can affect demineralization and decaying teeth. They use a great deal of force to straighten the teeth. These problems do not exist with clear aligners. Overall, clear braces reduce the damage normally caused by wearing braces, including gum disease and cavities.
