Hi Dr. Masri, I would like to ask a question whether you are using headgear moreover expander, and that needs to crank every night, as I used to do in my childhood? Is there any advancement in braces or its same as they were 30 years ago? … Thanks, Robin.

Thanks, robin for approaching us. Yes, you may see great advancement within the dental orthodontics in the last ten to thirty years.

There’s an enormous change in material and techniques that we are presently being used. The metal and ceramic braces that are getting used for medical practice became far smaller and elegant in look. There’s a huge improvement in the designing of wire, presently the wire is made using space program technology. The most effective factor about these wires is, they react to temperature and once cooled down it became soft and versatile. This creates a comfortable and versatile tooth movement. Even the design of the headgear is improved a lot for proper jaw and bite movements.

Invisalign could be an excellent change that can be noticed, they’d overtake the place of previous braces. Invisalign aligners are just invisible and work with a lot of ease compared to braces. The previous methodology of taking the impressions of teeth is additionally replaced. Presently the scanning of teeth and jaw structure is being performed by 3-dimensional LASER light scanner. Thirty-year ago you may feel the heaviness while doing movement of teeth once applying braces. However currently such an issue is additionally gets resolved, the movement became a lot of easier and comfy. The “crank” that you had to perform every day by yourself is no longer needed to do.

Crowded teeth are additional problems that get solved with much ease by doing gentler expansion. All the techniques that were used earlier are replaced to a massive extent. The very important reason is, previous treatments affect your facial appearance and lead to a slender smile. That’s why it became a restriction to bear any changes between ages 7 – 12 so that your facial development might adapt to these changes. Whereas no such rules are enforced currently. You’ll see the distinction between the materials and technologies that are practiced earlier and currently have an immense difference. This clearly shows a nice improvement in orthodontics. Obtaining straight teeth in the current era became a far simple and comfortable task that anyone might select.

Dr. Masri and his staff are truly the best! I came in with a complex case that Dr. Masri was transparent about from the start which built a lot of trust throughout the process. Finally got my braces off today and wanted to cry in the mirror, my smile came out beautiful, exceeding my expectations!
Samantha F.
Very welcoming, always looking out for what’s best to make that perfect smile, very understanding and easy to access with the ability to text the place. Overall great experience and straight teeth!
Missy M.
Dr Masri and his team are absolutely the best. I am extremely happy with the outcome of my orthodontic work. I recommend him highly and the staff here is wonderful.
Rachael Z.
Never had a problem with making or rescheduling appointments for either of my children. When my son (and now my daughter) first went for his braces every visit was precise with a very professional and friendly staff. Dr Masri is a perfectionist and has always had best interest of each of my children. When my son needed his braces removed a little early in order to go into the Marine Corps, Dr Masri made sure the early removal wouldn't hinder his treatment and even suggested a permanent retainer to make it easier for my son do that his teeth wouldn't shift since he wouldn't be able to wear regular retainers as he should. We loved every experience with both kids. My daughter chats up the staff every time she goes for her appointments and the girls even gave my daughter advice in school and what she wanted to do for college at this point. The staff is also good at NOT making a big deal about payments being late or behind at all, they just like good effort to pay and never made me feel horrible about missing a payment and I appreciate that. My daughter absolutely loves her braces, the staff and her treatment and of course how they make her feel special and not just another client they get money from. Some say Dr Masri is expensive, but I say you get what you pay for and my daughter and son are worth every penny. Oh, and the staff still asks how my son is and when told he broke his permanent retainer, they said to have him come in asap to get it fixed with a nominal fee. I can't praise Dr Masri or his staff enough
H 5.
