Sep 13, 2013 /prREACH/ -- Dr. Joseph Murray, cosmetic and general dentist in Atlanta, GA, recently introduced Invisalign orthodontic treatment at Atlanta Pampered Smiles to help patients have a more comfortable, attractive orthodontic experience. Unlike traditional braces with bulky wires and brackets, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners to gradually shift teeth into alignment.
Invisalign has been proven to reduce treatment time from traditional braces, with most patients only having to wear the aligners for about nine months. Additionally, Invisalign does not require as many office visits or check-ups, increasing the convenience factor for patients.
“Invisalign is an excellent option for our teen or adult patients who are concerned about the way braces would affect their social or professional image,” said Dr. Murray, Invisalign dentist in Atlanta, GA. “With Invisalign, most people don’t even realize that our patients are undergoing orthodontic treatment, and it gives them much more confidence as they are on their journey to straighter teeth.”
Using 3D computer technology, Dr. Murray creates a series of custom clear aligners for each patient for the course of their treatment. Patients wear a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks, and return to the dentist every six weeks for a check-up. While they are instructed to wear their aligners 22 hours out of the day, they are able to remove them for eating, brushing and flossing, and for special occasions such as meetings, reunions, or family pictures.
In addition to Invisalign, Dr. Murray and his staff at Pampered Smiles provide a variety of other dental and orthodontic treatments. To help patients with dental anxiety, Dr. Murray is a trained sedation dentist in Atlanta, GA. They provide restorative treatments such as fillings, crowns, bridge, and dentures as well as treatment for bad breath, gum disease, abscessed teeth, and other dental emergencies. He is also a provider of Six Month Smiles braces system, SnapOn Smile, dental implants, and more.
Dr. Murray received both his undergraduate and graduate degrees at Howard University in Washington, DC. He studied psychology and zoology prior to receiving his DDS degree in 1982. After graduation, Dr. Murray served as a Captain in the U.S. Army Dental Corps for three years. Dr. Murray is highly involved in continuing education as a practicing dentist and received a degree from The American Orthodontic Society in 1996. He is also heavily involved in community service, and was owner and director of Atlanta Institute of Dental Careers. Dr. Murray is a dental implants dentist in Atlanta, GA and received a degree from the American College of Oral Implantology. He is a member of the ADA, Academy of General Dentistry, and American Academy of Implant Dentists.
