jen — Mon, 14 May 2012 22:01:16 +0000

Everyone would like straight beautiful teeth but not all are so lucky . A number of people that are unhappy with their teeth are adults that never got braces for one reason or another or had braces but did not maintain their straight teeth with retainers. Now, as adults, they do not want to wear the unsightly traditional braces but they do continue to ponder what it would be like to have straight teeth. For these people, Invisalign may be the answer.

For adults who want orthodontic treatment but don’t want the hassle and appearance of metal braces, consider Invisalign. Dr. Fahkimi offers Invisalign as an effective alternative to the traditional metal braces. Creating a beautiful smile doesn’t have to be an unattractive experience.

Inivisalign involves the use of clear aligners. These aligners will slowly realign your teeth into the smile you’ve always wanted. The total treatment usually takes less than a year, and patients enjoy the freedom of removable, transparent orthodontic aligners throughout the process.

A consultation with Dr. Fahkimi will help you understand how Invisalign can treat your individual needs. Don’t wait any longer, Schedule your consultation today!

jen — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 20:17:21 +0000

No one wants to have to get a dental filling, but for most people, they are inevitable. Even with proper dental care, a filling may be necessary at some point. San Diego Dentist, Dr. Fakhimi understands that patients may be nervous and apprehensive about the process and works hard to make it as enjoyable, relaxing and pain-free a process as possible. In years past, fillings were something of an eyesore when the mouth was open, but now fillings have become virtually invisible. Dr. Fakhimi uses white fillings and composites which look natural and blend in seamlessly to your smile.

Don’t wait until you have pain! It is important to have regular check ups at your dentist and not just go when there is a more serious problem. Having regular check ups can help prevent more serious problems through early detection and proper cleaning. Fillings will last you several years before needing to be replace, however, they are under constant stress from chewing and those to clench or grid their teeth are putting even more stress and wear on the fillings, meaning they may need to be replaced sooner.

Invisalign San Diego – The Invisible Braces!

jen — Mon, 05 Mar 2012 23:48:21 +0000

Straight, beautifully aligned, pearly white teeth are the envy of almost everyone, but few people are actually naturally born with such a smile! Most of us need a little assistance in getting the smile of our dreams. In years past there was only one option when it came to straightening teeth: metal braces. These metal braces have evolved over time and believe it or not, they’re not nearly as obtrusive or painful as they used to be! Still, they are not ideal for everyone and in most cases the same amount of correction can be done using the near invisible technique of Invisalign!

Invisalign has been a huge success since it popped up on the market and has helped countless men, women, and teens achieve the straighter smiles they desired. In some rare cases, metal braces may still be the best option and a consultation with Dr. Fahkimi is required to determine the best plan of treatment for you. Contact our office today to learn more!
