Beverly HIlls, CA ( prfree.org ) September 26, 2013 - Achieving a perfect smile can often be a difficult process, especially when you suffer from crooked teeth. For many, correcting crooked or abnormal teeth means wearing metal dental braces for several years, which can be uncomfortable as well as unattractive. One substitute treatment for the correction of crooked teeth is Invisalign—clear, comfortable dental braces.

Renowned cosmetic dentist Dr. Kevin Sands, of Smiles of Beverly Hills in California, offers Invisalign to patients who have crooked teeth as an effective, comfortable alternative to metal braces. If left uncorrected, crooked teeth may lead to difficulty eating or brushing your teeth. Crooked or abnormal teeth also increase risks of tooth decay, gum disease, cavities, and gingivitis.

In order to begin the treatment for Invisalign, Dr. Sands first takes dental impressions of teeth. These impressions are then sent to Invisalign, where custom-made aligners for each individual patient are created. These aligners, made of plastic, painlessly shift teeth back into place. Patients only need to remove their aligners at mealtimes, and to brush their teeth. Dr. Sands also creates a customized treatment plan to ensure comfortable and effective treatment for all of his patients. Wearing Invisalign, teeth will gradually become healthier, stronger, and straighter.

Invisalign is especially popular among adults who are looking to straighten their teeth and correct minor abnormalities, without the annoyance or inconvenience of wearing metal braces, which are commonly worn by teenagers. Dr. Sands adds that Invisalign is known to correct patient's dental issues faster, and as effectively, as traditional braces.

In addition to crooked teeth, Dr. Sands notes that Invisalign is also useful in correcting various other problems, including underbite, overbite, crossibites, and closely spaced teeth.

Dr. Kevin Sands uses the latest treatments and procedures to enhance and perfect smiles, including offering dental veneers, tooth whitening, dental bridges, and sedation dentistry. He is a member of the American Dental Association and the Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. To learn more, please visit http://www.smilesofbeverlyhills.com.
