Oct 29, 2013 /prREACH/ -- Dr. Michael Goldberg, cosmetic dentist in New York, NY recently introduced Invisalign for patients struggling with teeth crowding after completing orthodontia in their earlier years. With Invisalign, Dr. Goldberg now offers adult patients a comfortable, convenient, and nearly invisible treatment for regaining the straight, beautiful smile they once had.
It is estimated that nearly 70 percent of adults who had braces as children or teenagers now experience crowding and misalignment as a result of shifting teeth. While this problem is not only aesthetically displeasing, it can lead to issues with chipping or cracking of teeth, as well as increased decay and gum problems.
While many of these adults desire a straighter smile, they don’t want the look of traditional metal braces. Invisalign helps solve this problem by using clear plastic aligners to gradually shift teeth back into place over a period of about nine months.
“Invisalign has really revolutionized the way we’re able to provide orthodontia to our adult patients,” said Dr. Michael Goldberg. “With this procedure, our patients don’t have to worry about diminishing their professional image. We can still help them look great while they’re working to make their smile even better.” To begin the Invisalign process, Dr. Goldberg uses the latest 3D imaging technology to create a series of smooth plastic aligners that the patient will replace approximately every three weeks. The aligners are worn 22 hours per day, and removed for eating, brushing and flossing. They offer greater convenience than traditional metal braces because there are no diet restrictions, and the aligners can be easily removed for special events, important photos, reunions, meetings, or interviews. The aligners are virtually unnoticeable when worn.
In addition to Invisalign and orthodontics, Dr. Goldberg and his staff at Manhattan Dental Health provide a wide range of other dental treatments. He is a highly skilled dental implants dentist in New York, NY and also has advanced training in sedation dentistry. For those who struggle with craniofacial pain, Dr. Goldberg is also a trained TMJ dentist in New York, NY.
Dr. Michael Goldberg is renowned in the Manhattan area and nationwide for being a pioneer in dentistry. He was one of the first dentists in the nation to offer smile redesigning before it became mainstream in 1977. He is a graduate of Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and was the Director of General Practice Residency Program at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center for 2 years. Among his many other accomplishments, Dr. Goldberg is heavily involved in humanitarian aid and continuing education. He is the author of “What the Tooth Fairy Didn’t Tell You,” which is a consumer guide to dentistry in the Big Apple.
