Invisalign®

Invisalign® In the pursuit of a radiant, flawless smile, traditional orthodontic methods have often presented hurdles. From the discomfort induced by metal wires and brackets to the self-consciousness stemming from a conspicuously altered appearance, achieving straight teeth historically demanded sacrifices. However, with the advent of groundbreaking dental technology, a revolutionary solution has emerged, offering unparalleled convenience, comfort, and discretion: Invisalign. And here at Kitcha Dental Clinic, we take immense pride in offering this cutting-edge orthodontic treatment to our cherished patients, paving the way for a straighter, more confident smile like never before. What sets Invisalign apart from traditional braces is its ingenious approach to teeth straightening. Instead of relying on conspicuous metal components, Invisalign harnesses the power of transparent aligners meticulously crafted to fit snugly over your teeth. This means that as you undergo treatment, your aligners remain virtually invisible to others, empowering you to smile, speak, and laugh with unparalleled confidence. Yet, the allure of Invisalign transcends mere aesthetics. Unlike traditional braces, which can induce discomfort and irritation, Invisalign aligners are fashioned from smooth, comfortable materials that glide seamlessly over your teeth, sparing your gums and cheeks from unwelcome abrasion. With Invisalign, you can seamlessly navigate through your daily activities without the hindrance of bulky metal brackets chafing against the delicate interior of your mouth. Moreover, Invisalign offers a level of flexibility unparalleled in orthodontic treatment. While traditional braces impose restrictions on certain foods due to the risk of hardware damage, Invisalign aligners can be effortlessly removed before meals, granting you the freedom to relish all your favorite culinary delights without constraint. Whether you’re indulging in a crisp apple or savoring a succulent steak, you can do so with unwavering confidence, knowing that your aligners can be conveniently slipped out and reinserted afterward. At Kitcha Dental Clinic, we are dedicated to providing our patients with a level of care that transcends expectations. When you entrust us with your Invisalign journey, you can rest assured that you are in the capable hands of a team of seasoned dental professionals committed to your well-being. From your initial consultation to the culmination of your treatment, we embark on this transformative journey alongside you, ensuring that every step is marked by comfort, ease, and efficacy. Leveraging state-of-the-art 3D scanning technology, we meticulously craft a bespoke treatment plan tailored to your unique dental needs, ensuring optimal results with each successive aligner change. However, our dedication to your oral health extends far beyond the confines of your treatment plan. Throughout your Invisalign journey, we vigilantly monitor your progress, making any necessary adjustments to ensure that your teeth are shifting according to plan. Our ultimate goal is not only to bestow upon you a beautifully aligned smile but also to enhance your overall oral health and well-being, fostering a lifelong commitment to dental excellence.

Opalescence PF Tooth Whitening Gel (Home Bleaching)

Opalescence PF is  : a water-based tooth whitening gel with concentrations of 10%, 15%, 20%, and 35%. It contains hydrogen peroxide at 10%, 15%, 20%, and 35%, respectively. This formula is used for teeth whitening, with results varying based on individual needs. It helps maintain tooth moisture during the whitening process. The higher concentration of the gel not only reduces sensitivity but also decreases the likelihood of shade relapse in the future. This is because the patient’s teeth remain moisturized from the beginning to the end of the whitening process. Mechanism of Action: Hydrogen peroxide infiltrates the tooth structure, then breaks down into water and oxygen. These oxygen molecules bind to the color molecules that make teeth appear yellow or dark, causing them to break down. As a result, the teeth appear whiter. 1. Precautions before using the whitening gel: Patients should consult a dentist to assess their dental and gum health. The dentist will select the appropriate formula and provide guidance and close monitoring. 2. How to use the whitening gel: 3. Precautions: 4.

The Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART)

The Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) At Kitcha Dental Clinic, we prioritize your health and safety by following the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) protocol, established by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT). Our commitment to excellence ensures that your dental care is not only effective but also safe and environmentally responsible. The Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) is a set of rigorous safety recommendations designed to protect patients, dental professionals, and the environment from mercury exposure during the removal of dental amalgam fillings. These protocols are based on the latest scientific research and were most recently updated by the IAOMT on July 19, 2019. Our dentists at Kitcha Dental Clinic are certified in SMART, ensuring you receive the highest standard of care. Dental amalgam fillings contain approximately 50% mercury, which can release harmful mercury vapors during everyday activities like brushing and chewing. The release of mercury is significantly higher during the placement, replacement, and removal of these fillings. Mercury vapor is a known neurotoxin that can affect the nervous, digestive, and immune systems, as well as the lungs and kidneys. Chronic exposure to mercury vapor can have serious health implications, making it crucial to handle amalgam fillings with the utmost care. At Kitcha Dental Clinic, we implement the SMART protocol to minimize your exposure to mercury vapors and particulates. This protocol ensures that both patients and dental professionals are protected from the potential hazards associated with mercury exposure. Our SMART-certified dentists follow these comprehensive safety measures to protect your health during amalgam removal: These measures ensure that the amalgam removal process is safe for patients, dental professionals, and the environment. We adhere to all federal, state, and local regulations for the safe handling and disposal of mercury-contaminated materials. Our protocols extend beyond the removal procedure itself, encompassing the safe cleaning and disposal of any materials and equipment that come into contact with mercury. Additionally, we take extra precautions to ensure that pregnant or breastfeeding women are not exposed to mercury during their visits. The IAOMT does not recommend amalgam filling removal for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and we follow these guidelines rigorously to protect both our patients and staff. At Kitcha Dental Clinic, your safety and well-being are our top priorities. We are dedicated to providing you with safe and effective dental care using the latest and most reliable methods. Our commitment to the SMART protocol underscores our dedication to patient safety, environmental responsibility, and professional excellence.
