A Healthy and beautiful smile has never been more important, easy, and painless

By StoryStudio on March 1, 2023 10:56 AM

In many ways, our society has come to view orthodontics as elective and purely cosmetic dentistry. Maybe it’s because we associate orthodontics with teenages straightening their teeth. Maybe it’s simply the word “cosmetic.” For whatever reason, many people who look at their own selfies and are unhappy with their smile tend to think beautiful teeth are a luxury that they don’t need and therefore don’t deserve. But that’s simply not the case. A healthy smile is not only important to your physical and mental wellbeing, but cosmetic dentistry is also easier, faster, and more accessible than ever. First, looks are more important than we admit. How we look and feel about ourselves is a big part of our confidence and self-esteem, which are directly linked to mental health. And in the age of the selfie, and when many of us spend our days staring at ourselves on Zoom, we are more aware of our own facial features than ever. I

Straightening your teeth prevents future consequences of misaligned teeth, like a bad bite, gum recession, tooth decay, bone loss, and excessive wear, says Dr. Berik.

“You are not just a bunch of teeth floating around in the air, your bite and teeth alignment are a system” says Dr. Anna Berik, owner of Newton Dental Associates and The Center for Oral Surgery and Implantology. “They have a function, and form and function are tied together. If something looks wrong, it’s often a symptom of a bigger problem. A smile that looks right usually works right.” Another misconception about having a beautiful, functioning smile is that achieving it is a painful, lengthy process. Dr. Berik says that’s just not the case any more. For instance, Newton Dental Associates offers Accelerated Invisalign that combine cutting-edge technology and vast expertise to deliver a gorgeous smile and a healthy bite as quickly and comfortably as possible. These aligners are custom-fitted to your teeth, with no unsightly brackets or wires, and can be removed to eat, drink, brush, and floss so you can maintain better dental and oral hygiene. And instead of the one to two years that typical aligners take to straighten your smile, this process typically gets the job done in three months!

In a 2019 Invisalign study, the majority of respondents said that straightened teeth help boost their confidence and gave them the encouragement to achieve a goal they wouldn’t have accomplished otherwise. Another benefit of a healthy smile is that our teeth are directly connected to their function and our physical health. Worn and chipped teeth are often symptoms of a bad bite—and the teeth are a key component of an overall healthy mouth. Fix the bite; mitigate the symptoms.

“The myth is that there’s some age limit on fixing your bite and improving your smile,” says Dr. Berik. “But the truth is you’re never too old. This works and works well.” Part of the reason it works so well at Newton Dental Associates is because, in addition to the being well-versed in the technology, Dr. Berik has devoted her 30 year career studying and performing every facet of cosmetic dentistry. And she’s surrounded herself with a team of specialists in all branches of dentistry that can provide a well-rounded menu of offerings, including:

• Tooth cleaning • Tooth whitening • Implants • Oral surgey • Alignment • Night guards • Crowns and Veneers • Full makeovers and total facial aesthetics

“Invislalign is not some button you push on a computer and magic happens; your doctor needs to be in charge of the case, understand tooth movement, and needs to know what your goals are,” “ Who you choose matters, says Dr. Berik. And she does it because she cares. “We’re restoring function to worn teeth and changing people’s lives,” says Dr. Berik. “You get to fix this thing that they’ve always hated.. You get to be part of their story.” To find out if the next chapter of your story involves an improved smile, courtesy of Dr. Berik and Newton Dental Associates, visit www.newtondentalassociates.com.

Then, there are just three more office visits over the next three months.
