Invisalign

The clear alternative to metal braces.

By using a series of clear, removable aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth with results you'll notice sooner than you think. The course of treatment involves changing aligners approximately every two weeks, moving your teeth into straighter position step by step, until you have a more beautiful smile. And unlike braces, these clear aligners can be removed while you eat and brush your teeth as usual.

Less treatment time.

An average Invisalign course of treatment takes about a year. You'll see your Invisalign Certified Orthodontist or Dentist every 6 to 8 weeks for adjustments and to check progress. At regular intervals, you'll receive a new set of custom-molded clear aligners to continue the straightening process. The total number of clear aligners is specific to you, determined by your doctor for your course of treatment.

Clear. And comfortable.

Since Invisalign is practically invisible, there's no unwarranted attention to your mouth. In fact, very few people will notice at all - unless you tell them. They're comfortable to wear and remove easily when you eat, brush, and floss.

All across the country, people like you now have great smiles and straighter teeth, thanks to Invisalign. Why not join them? Contact us today to set up an appointment with Dr. Luke Klele. That gorgeous smile you want is just a call away.

Tooth Implants

Tooth implants may provide several practical and social benefits to patients in need of a unique and innovative solution to their dental needs.

The most effective use of mini tooth implants is the stabilization of a lower denture. There are approximately 50,000,000 people in the United States alone who are "edentulous" (literally meaning "lacking teeth") who struggle daily with prosthetic devices. A majority suffer a great deal of discomfort as a result of loose or ill-fitting dentures. Moreover, it's not uncommon for dentures to result in disagreeable breath as a result of trapped food decaying under the denture prosthesis.

Dr. Luke Klele is committed to bringing you the latest in dental technology, and tooth implants are no exception. Using laser technology, each patient's personal needs are addressed, and a custom dental implant is individually sculpted to bring the finest results.

Veneers

In dentistry, a veneer is a thin layer of restorative material placed over a tooth surface, either to improve the aesthetics of a tooth, or to protect a damaged tooth surface. Dr. Klele uses porcelain veneers that are bonded to the teeth to improve appearance, alter and enhance the smile, and even serve to protect the teeth from wear and tear.

The advantages of using a veneer to restore a tooth are many. Very good aesthetics can be obtained, with minimal tooth preparation (i.e. drilling). Dr. Luke Klele will custom build every veneer to best suit the particular patient. The outcome is simple -- A perfectly beautiful, natural looking smile. The best smile nature could give.

What problems can dental veneers correct?
