Jun 27, 2014 /prREACH/ -- Dr. Keith Kelley recently introduced Invisalign at his Troy, MI dental office to provide patients with misaligned, crowded, or gapped teeth with a better option for fast, flawless smiles. Unlike traditional orthodontia with bulky wires and brackets, Invisalign instead uses soft, clear plastic aligners that work to gradually shift teeth into alignment.
Teeth that are crowded or misaligned are more susceptible to excessive decay because they are more difficult to keep clean and floss. Additionally, crowding and misalignment can cause more issues with the cracking, damaging, and wearing of teeth over time due to improper occlusion. With Invisalign, patients now have a way to correct those issues without having to resort to traditional orthodontia.
“Invisalign is great for our teen and adult patients who dream of having a straight, confident smile, but worry about their image if they have to get traditional wire braces,” said Dr. Keith Kelley, Invisalign dentist in Troy, MI. “With this new procedure, we can offer these patients a way to look great while they’re on their way to getting a perfect smile.”
While patients are instructed to wear the clear plastic aligners for 22 hours per day, they are easily removed for eating, brushing, and flossing. They allow for more lifestyle flexibility since they can also be removed for important meetings, photographs, reunions, or events. The average treatment time for Invisalign patients is nine months.
Dr. Kelley uses state of the art 3D technology to create a series of plastic aligners that the patient will wear during their course of treatment. The aligners are replaced approximately every three weeks, and patients return to the dentist for check-ups every six weeks—considerably less often than with traditional braces.
In addition to being a preferred Invisalign provider, Dr. Kelley and his staff provide a wide range of other general and cosmetic dental services. Dr. Kelley is a certified dental implants dentist in Troy, MI and also provides services such as crowns, veneers, teeth whitening, and more. For those who experience jaw or facial pain, Dr. Kelley is also a TMJ dentist in Troy, MI.
Dr. Kelley is one of the most experienced dentists in the Troy, MI area, with nearly 35 years as a member of the profession. He completed his dental education at University of Michigan School of Dentistry, one of the top dental schools in the nation. Since 2002, Dr. Kelley has been chosen as one of America’s Best Dentists by the Consumer’s Research Council of America. Dr. Kelley is actively involved in community service, regularly providing exams and treatments for military personnel and devoting time to serve the Navajo Indians each year with their dental needs.
