The Advantages of Orthodontic Treatment at DeMille Mackay Dental

While many orthodontists offer traditional metal braces, our practices can recommend a wide selection of methods to suit your lifestyle and goals. There are several benefits of undergoing treatment at our North Salt Lake, UT, and West Valley City, UT, office...

Subtle Orthodontic Methods

Our orthodontists offer clear brackets, retainers, and aligners that are virtually undetectable, so you will not have to be self-conscious about unsightly metal brackets. Our wide range of options can treat mild to severe cases of misalignment with the same efficacy as a traditional treatment.

Comfortable Treatment

Invisalign trays are typically more comfortable than braces. They exert less pressure on your teeth, and they will not irritate the inside of your lips. Aligner trays are also beneficial for physically active patients who play sports, as they run the risk of damaging traditional brackets and injuring the inside of their mouth.

More Affordable Prices

In many cases, treatment is covered or partially covered by insurance. Our Utah practices also extend affordable financing for your out-of-pocket expenses. In some cases alignment trays are even faster than standard braces, reducing the length of treatment and the overall cost of the procedure.

Emphasis on Comprehensive Care

Drs. DeMille and Mackay provide more than aesthetic treatment for straighter teeth. We focus on your overall oral health and correct any issues with your alignment and jaw that can be painful down the road. The orthodontist will examine your digital x-rays to uncover hidden problems that are addressed in conjunction with visible flaws.

Invisalign Provides Discreet Orthodontic Treatment

State-of-the-art Invisalign® is suitable for a wide range of orthodontic concerns, with a series of subtle, clear, aligners. The orthodontist will take impressions of your teeth with a digital scanner to design your custom plastic trays. The resulting images are manipulated with our high-tech software to design the contours of the aligner trays. The Invisalign technicians then craft the transparent plastic trays with maximum precision order to gently reposition your smile.

While Invisalign is effective for mild to moderate orthodontic issues, it may not be appropriate if you have severely misaligned teeth. When you meet for a consultation at either or North Salt Lake or West Valley City, Utah, practices we can determine if Invisalign is suitable for you.
