A few people get by without removing them, but most people should have their wisdom teeth removed. That’s because those latecomers can lead to several dental problems such as misaligned teeth, bite problems, cavities, and gum disease. Thankfully, our dentists have the training, experience, and technology needed to make this procedure as pain-free as possible. You can even pick from three sedation options (inhaled, pill, or IV) so get rid of any anxiety about the treatment.

Adults deserve straight teeth as much as teenagers, but who wants metal braces? Here, you can get a modern orthodontic treatment called Invisalign. It’s a series of smooth, plastic trays that fit over your teeth. Because they are clear, they are all but invisible when worn. Even better, you can straighten crooked teeth and have the smile you deserve.

You can also get clear ceramic braces, which are more affordable while still being “invisible” and hard to detect.

Yes! At our Edgewood, KY dentist’s office, you can get two kinds. Clear ceramic braces work like traditional braces, but it uses clear ceramic instead of metal so it’s much harder to see. But for a more discreet option, you can get Invisalign® instead. These clear plastic trays work great but are almost invisible when worn on your teeth. Both treatments will give you straight, even smiles.
