Tooth Decay and Fluoride
How does tooth decay occur?
- Tooth decay, also known as dental caries, begins with the formation of plaque – a sticky film of bacteria that forms on our teeth.
- When the bacteria eat the sugar from our diet, they produce acids that start dissolving the tooth, forming cavities.
- If left untreated over time, the decay can progress deeper into the tooth and eventually reach the nerve causing pain and infection
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is one of many clear aligner orthodontic systems designed to move teeth. It is perhaps the most well known and marketed clear aligner system and is quickly becoming a popular alternative to traditional braces.
How does it work?
Invisalign works by moving teeth through a sequence of clear aligners. After completing a detailed assessment by your dentist, each aligner is designed to introduce slight movements of your teeth.
