Invisible/Clear Braces for Adults

Whether you have a mild bite irregularity or a major cosmetic concern, our experienced cosmetic dentist is equipped to address your needs. Invisalign is the preferred clear braces choice for adults, giving them an invisible orthodontic solution without the discomfort and embarrassment of traditional metal braces. Invisalign technology uses a series of clear custom-made aligners that slowly move your teeth into their proper position.

Patients should expect to get a new aligner every 2 weeks until your ideal results are achieved. The aligners are fit precisely to your comfort level and they can be easily removed to eat, drink, brush and floss. Invisalign also gives patients a shorter orthodontic treatment time. Most patients gain their final smile correction results between 6 and 18 months after beginning treatment.

Our office welcomes both adults and teens who are interested in a straighter smile using Invisalign. We accept most dental insurance and we have a variety of payment options, including flexible financing plans for your convenience. Contact Soft Touch Dentistry to schedule a consultation with Dr. Thompson and learn if you are a candidate for Invisalign today.

Dental Anxiety Options, Fear Of the Dentist

Dental anxiety or dental fear is what keeps 9% to 15% of Americans from receiving dental care each year.

Hearing the term “root canal” may make you cringe. However, it is important to understand that a root canal is no more painful than getting a cavity filled.

It’s Time To Discuss Your Bad Breath

October 23, 2020

Chronic Bad Breath Treatments, Remedies for Halitosis

Has wearing a mask throughout the day made you more aware of your bad breath? Bad breath, or halitosis, is an embarrassing condition. If you don’t treat it at its source, your efforts of mints and chewing gum can be quite futile. Chronic halitosis goes beyond “garlic breath” after eating Italian or the common morning breath that we all experience when waking up. Patients who suffer from bad breath on a daily basis, regardless of what they’ve eaten or if they’ve brushed that morning, should consider working with a dentist to get to the root cause. In some cases, bad breath can be a warning sign of something more serious going on in your mouth or your body. (more…)

I visited their new location and the first thing I noticed was the smell of pumpkin spice candles when I walked in the door. The waiting room is homey and their television is set to HGTV. Makes the wait very pleasant!
