Would you like straight teeth? Don’t want braces? Then Invisalign is for you! In just a year, this patient was able to have the smile he always wanted!

Do you have an open bite from tongue thrust? Invisalign can help with getting your teeth back together, depending on the severity of your space. The patient shown in the following pictures had already gone through braces for several years but the teeth relapsed. After only 6 months of Invisalign treatment at our office, we were able to put her front teeth back together! To make sure they stay in place this time (and also to fight the forces of her tongue thrusting habit), we placed a thin metal bar on the back sides of these teeth that are obviously not visible. Call us today for a free Invisalign consultation! 817-292-5957
If you’re thinking of having major dental work, do your homework and ask questions. How many of these cases has your dentist completed? Do they have before and after photos of their cases? How do they plan for your case?
At Stovall & Cheng, DDS, we start your case with a complete assessment that includes digital photos, molds of your teeth, measurements, exam and consultation. We have photos of our cases and can usually find one that looks a lot like your current situation. From your assessment appointment, we perform a “mock preparation” in which we prepare (with our handpiece) on models of your teeth and then do a “wax-up” on your models so we know what your case will look like before we even start. Doesn’t that make sense? If you’re going to commit to a large amount of work in the front of your mouth, shouldn’t we know what the endpoint will look like before we even start?
Visit our website at www.hulendental.com , as well as the rest of our blogs on this site, to see all of the cases we have completed over the years. We are currently accepting new patients and look forward to help you achieve a healthier mouth and better looking smile. From Implants, dentures, bridges, veneers and Invisalign, we can help you.

If you would classify yourself as “cavity-prone”, here’s some advice on how you can do your part in cavity-prevention:
1) Brush your teeth 3 times a day. Most people brush their teeth in the morning, have breakfast, lunch, dinner and then brush their teeth before they go to bed. Think about it, that’s 8+ hours that food, plaque & tartar are sitting on and around your teeth! So, take an extra toothbrush (you know, the ones your dentist gives you every 6 months) to work and brush right after lunch. That’ll cut that time in half and give you better breath throughout the day, too.
2) Cut down on your sugar intake. It’s OK to have a sweet tooth, but if you’re bathing your teeth in sugar constantly and not removing the plaque off of your teeth, it’s a recipe for more cavities. Again, brush in the middle of the day and immediately after eating sweets. Soft Drinks are a big culprit in causing tooth decay. Sodas are very acidic and most are very high in sugar. This combination can be primed for causing cavities.
3) Use supplemental fluoride. This can be in the form of an over-the-counter fluoride rinse, a prescription for fluoride gel written by your dentist, or a prescription toothpaste that has a higher fluoride content than regular toothpaste. Some people just have cavity-prone teeth that they inherit from a parent or other have teeth that didn’t develop well from some interruption during their childhood. Whatever the case, for some people preventing cavities is a constant uphill battle that never goes away.
I always tell my cavity-prone patients that they have to work twice as hard as my other patients because “those are the cards they were dealt.” After all, to some extent, all of us have our faults and at least with cavities, you can do something about it. I’m only 5’4″ tall…would I like to be 6′ tall? Of course. But I can’t do anything about the cards I was dealt.
There is a saying: ” You never have a second chance to make a first impression.” This has never been more true than it is today. Unfortunately, we live in a vain world in which just about everything revolves around how something or someone looks.
Your smile is the first thing most people notice…in a social environment, during a job interview, in photos, the list goes on and on. If you’ve always wanted to be able to smile freely and proudly, please visit our website or Facebook page and see for yourself how we can help you.

Most people are not happy with their smile because of the color of the teeth. The proportionate length and width of teeth, however, are just as important. If you have white teeth but do not have proper symmetry of length and width matched to your face, that may be the limiting factor on how satisfied you are with your smile.
The case shown below was recently completed in our office and is a wonderful example of how changing the proportions on teeth can make an unbelievable difference.
Please call today for a smile consultation if you’re unsatisfied with your smile. 817-292-5957
