Restorative Dentistry

Invisible Braces

Dr. Mark Waltzer proudly offers Invisalign® for our patients. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign® uses transparent trays to align teeth properly for a beautiful smile. Our patients are only required to make minor life changes to accommodate orthodontic treatment, like removing the aligner when brushing, flossing, eating, and drinking. Conversely, metal brackets and wires in braces take away your smile’s natural appearance and can cut the inside of your mouth, making “invisible braces” that obvious solution to a straighter smile.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are an alternative to bridges and removable dentures. They’re a permanent, stable solution for replacing missing teeth and can anchor crowns, bridges, or even dentures. They are made of titanium, which is a biocompatible material that has been used in other medical devices for years. They’re placed into the jawbone, where they promote new bone growth, which helps them to become one with your natural teeth. They can also be used to anchor bridges and crowns in place.

Dental implants are a great way to restore your smile without worrying about dentures slipping out of place or becoming loose over time. It’s important to take good care of them by brushing twice daily and visiting your dentist every six months for cleaning and evaluation.
