At Quince Orchard Dental Specialists we’ve noticed a trend over the past year: more and more adults looking to straighten their teeth with orthodontics. Adults have always been interested in having a great smile but we think there’s a reason for this sharp increase in requests: Zoom.
Think about it, pre-Covid you’d finish your morning routine at the mirror and then you wouldn’t see yourself again until it was time for your bedtime routine - other than the occasional trip to the bathroom or to take a fun selfie. Now that we’re on Zoom and FaceTime for all our meetings (sometimes even if you’re back at the office) and virtual gatherings, we’re busy staring at ourselves, and our smiles, ALL DAY LONG!
No wonder more adults are seeking orthodontic treatment. And it’s not just any orthodontic treatment they’re after - Invisalign is the most highly sought. Invisalign Clear Aligners are the way to go for adult orthodontic treatment. Not only do they take less time than traditional braces, but they’re virtually invisible! Plus, we can treat only the elements of your smile that are most important to you.
Get that new smile before we go maskless again!
Here’s how it works: we start with a scan of your teeth and then Dr. Jinah Kang uses our imaging technology to map out a unique treatment plan and create custom aligners to guide your teeth along their journey. It will be important that you wear your aligners 22 hours per day - and since we’re all home more often these days, good hygiene will be easier to attain.
We know there are a lot of direct to consumer options out there - here’s why we think it’s important to seek orthodontic care at a local practice: Orthodontists MOVE BONES IN YOUR FACE. Your teeth are bones! Without proper x-rays you could cause serious damage to your jaw, bite and smile. A local orthodontist, like Dr. Kang has spent years studying in dental school, then additional years of education to gain an Orthodontic specialty degree and is trusted by many families in our community.
You’ve figured out your Zoom background, it’s time to focus on the foreground.
