Do you have gaps in your smile that make you feel self-conscious? Many people who face this dental issue are unsure how to close the gaps without traditional braces. Now, Invisalign aligners straighten gapped teeth without the need for brackets and wires.

Invisalign treatment is a popular option at Cosmetic Dental Studios in New York and Beverly Hills. Celebrity dentist Dr. Victoria Veytsman may recommend these aligners during a smile design appointment. Call now to discover the benefits of clear braces in cosmetic dentistry and how to achieve a confident, brilliant smile.

What causes gaps in teeth?

Though spaces between teeth are common, they can make certain people uncomfortable. Gaps may arise as a result of:

  • Genetics: Some people naturally have small teeth or extra space between teeth.
  • Thumb sucking: Oral habits in childhood like these can push teeth out of alignment and create unwanted gaps.
  • A missing tooth or teeth: If you lose a tooth, the neighboring ones may shift into the empty place and leave spaces between them.

If you have gaps in your smile due to any of these reasons, we encourage you to call Cosmetic Dental Studios in New York or Beverly Hills for a smile design appointment.

What happens during a smile design consultation?

A smile design appointment is your chance to discuss all dental concerns with Dr. Veytsman. We will ask about your desired outcomes and how much time you are willing to spend on the process. Then, we perform a comprehensive exam of teeth and gums, take x-rays if necessary, and capture images of your face.

Once the images are uploaded to our state-of-the-art software, we can create a detailed model of your smile and see how options like Invisalign aligners can gradually improve your appearance. This allows patients to make more informed decisions about their care. If we decide to move forward with clear braces, our team will provide a series of custom aligners for treatment.

How do Invisalign aligners close gaps in the teeth?

Invisalign aligners apply gentle and consistent pressure to the teeth, slowly shifting them into position. The clear plastic material of the aligners is custom-made to fit comfortably over your teeth, making them virtually invisible. Many of our cosmetic dentistry patients love Invisalign treatment as part of their smile design program because they can be removed at any time for activities like eating and cleaning.

Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners allow you to maintain a natural appearance while straightening your teeth. Dr. Veytsman will provide you with a new set every few weeks, gradually moving your teeth until the gaps are closed. This process usually takes about 12 – 18 months, but the timeline varies based on your needs.
