Are you missing your smile? If you’ve got one or more missing teeth, you don’t have to tell me you are.

Cosmetic dentistry is one of the most popular areas of dentistry and it’s easy to understand why. As opposed to other dentistry services like restorative and preventive, cosmetic dentistry focuses on the appearance of your smile rather than functionality. Everywhere you look there seem to be people with whiter and brighter smiles than ever before. Dental technology has advanced so much just over the last five years, and we want you to take advantage of these services.
Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction also known as TMD occurs when the joint connecting your jaw (mandible) to the rest of your skull (temporal region) is strained or otherwise does not function correctly. TMJ disorder can be extremely painful, cause chronic headaches, earaches, hearing loss, inhibits speech and chewing, and can lead to numerous other medical concerns. Still, if you mention TMJ dysfunction or TMD, many people aren’t quite sure what it is. Common misconceptions are that this joint discomfort is untreatable, and that it is the same thing as lock jaw (an infection from the tetanus bacteria). If you’ve experienced jaw pain, swelling or difficulty opening and closing your mouth, you may wish to visit Dr. Leslie M.

Invisalign can give you the beautiful, perfectly aligned smile you’ve always wanted.
