As an adult, you probably think getting braces to straighten your
teeth at this stage of life is out of the question. But this not true at all!
You can get the kind of knock-out smile that could improve your life without
wearing regular braces.
Must I see an orthodontist for my adult braces?
With the advent of invisible braces systems which straighten just
those teeth that show when you smile, many dentists now include cosmetic braces
in their continuing education coursework. Although orthodontics which correct
severe bite problems or jaw misalignments are best treated by orthodontists,
cosmetic dentists such as Dr. Joseph Tartagni at Shoreline Dental Care in West
Haven and Milford CT are straightening teeth to enhance smiles!

The Invisalign clear aligners system has proven to be simple to
use, and a convenient method of straightening teeth. Shifting only those teeth
that show when you smile, Invisalign makes use of a series of clear custom-made
aligners you wear over your teeth to gently and gradually bring them into
alignment. Almost undetectable so you can wear them all day without anyone
noticing you are undergoing orthodontic treatment; your aligners can be taken
out for brushing and flossing.
Clear braces
Six Month Smiles is another adult braces system that integrates orthodontics
and your cosmetic dentist. Using clear brackets and tooth-colored wires, Six
Month Smiles is designed to gently and continually shift your teeth into their
proper position, without the need for constant orthodontic visits to tighten
wires.
Let Dr. Joseph Tartagni at Shoreline Dental Care in West Haven and
Milford CT show you how easily and comfortable the new advances in orthodontics
and your cosmetic dentist can improve your smile. Straighten your teeth with
the clear braces of Six Month Smiles or the invisible braces system of
Invisalign, and forget the metal look of regular braces! You can have a
straighter smile, thanks to new orthodontics and your cosmetic dentist.
