You’ve no doubt heard about Invisalign, the orthodontic treatment that uses clear acrylic aligner trays to move the teeth rather than the much-despised metal bands, wires, and elastics of traditional braces. One of the features involved with the Invisalign system at Gentle Dental is the scanner we use to start the process. It’s called iTero […]
Although it was first introduced in 1998, most people think the Invisalign tooth straightening system is new. While it was met with early skepticism, Invisalign is now accepted as a great alternative to traditional braces.

Now that the kids have all headed back to school in Edison and elsewhere, issues such as acne breakouts or what to wear take on a whole new level of importance. Right in there is the fear of becoming a metal mouth. Although wearing braces is anything but unusual — almost 4.5 million Americans (the […]
At Gentle Dental our patients love Invisalign, the orthodontic treatment that moves the teeth through the use of clear plastic aligner trays, rather than the traditional metal bands and wires. Both teens and adults prefer Invisalign mainly due to the fact that wearing the clear aligners doesn’t make them a “metal mouth.” But there’s more […]

Most of us have suffered through braces. Food stuck in the bands. Wires poking our cheeks. Bands rubbing on the inside of our lips. Friends alluding to our “metal” mouth. It wasn’t a cakewalk, but it was the deal if you wanted to have your teeth straightened. But now you can lose the metal, yet […]

Braces and acne. Those are the dual humiliations that impact virtually every teenager at some point of their high school years. While great strides have been made in the treatment of acne, if you have poorly aligned or spaced teeth, braces are a necessity, and with them the dreaded “metal mouth.” Not so fast. You […]
While Invisalign has been around since the 90s, people assume the clear plastic aligner system is only for adults who only need to move their teeth just a bit, even to simply move them back after their teeth have moved a bit following their teenage braces. But Invisalign can work well for teenagers, too. Kids […]
