Invisalign is a front-runner for straightening teeth these days. You can enjoy virtually invisible teeth-straightening while continuing to eat the foods you enjoy, brush and floss your teeth normally for better oral health, and minimize office visits. The choice is clear! You might wonder why it’s necessary to see Dr. Fotovat for your Invisalign treatment. Here are the top reasons why only an orthodontist should treat you:

Do it once and do it right.
Dr. Fotovat’s goals are straight teeth and a healthy bite. We ensure that the teeth, upper and lower jaws, gums, and facial muscles are positioned so that you can bite, chew, and speak well. Without taking these components into consideration, problems can arise, such as issues with the jaw joint (TMJ), headaches, excessive wearing or chipping of the teeth, premature tooth loss, and gum problems.

Dr. Fotovat will identify the cause of the problem and then solve it.
You may see crooked or gapped teeth. We see the cause of the problem. Orthodontists use their education, experience, and expertise to delve deep to discover the root of the issue and solve it in a way that is healthy and sustainable; giving you a Picture Perfect Smile that will last a lifetime.

Orthodontics goes beyond your teeth.
Orthodontists study facial esthetics and understand how tooth movement can change your facial profile, smile line, and general appearance. Dr. Fotovat and his team understand how it relates to the face and future growth changes. We take a comprehensive, whole-patient approach to your treatment so that your overall appearance is considered along with your smile.

Orthodontists are specialists.
After dental school education, orthodontists devote an additional 2-3 years to the study of only orthodontics. Dr. Fotovat practices orthodontics exclusively and is certified by the American Board of Orthodontics. He is a trained expert who cares about making sure you get a healthy Picture Perfect Smile!

At Mehdi Fotovat, DDS we’re making orthodontic treatment as convenient and hassle-free as possible. We know your life is busy and we want to take away the stress of getting a healthy, Picture Perfect Smile for your family! You can now use your phone to manage orthodontic treatment with Dental Monitoring. We can convert a patient’s (or parent’s) phone into a remote monitoring device that helps us straighten smiles faster with fewer in-office appointments.

How does Dental Monitoring work?
If you’re pursuing Invisalign treatment with our practice, the Dental Monitoring app will help us guide your pathway to a Picture Perfect Smile. We will set up a “Virtual Appointment” Schedule; you’ll get a notification from us on your personalized app, which will walk you through taking a series of pictures of your current smile. Dental Monitoring’s software automatically enhances and sequences your pictures so that Dr. Fotovat can track the treatment progress. These virtual appointments take less time than a trip to the office!

Why is Dental Monitoring so great? 

• Visit the office less often – our patients have busy schedules and we know it’s hard to fit in appointments between school, work, sports, and other activities. Dental Monitoring allows us to monitor your progress remotely, which means fewer in-office appointments.
• No missing appointments – decide when it’s most convenient to have your appointments! The Dental Monitoring app will send you reminders on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to take pictures – a virtual appointment that fits your schedule.
• Better precision – we can make real-time adjustments better than we could if we didn’t see you for a whole month since we’re getting more frequent data about your progress with the pictures you send us. Dr. Fotovat can track oral hygiene level, aligner fit, tooth movement, or attachment issues that will allow him to make recommendations in real time.
• Treatment times are faster – the digital images you send us allow Dr. Fotovat to detect issues faster and see your treatment progress more frequently. That means your in-person appointments are so much more efficient. Efficiency = faster treatment times!

More communication means better compliance and improved confidence – using Dental Monitoring allows our patients to take an active role in achieving the Picture Perfect Smile of their dreams. Getting more frequent feedback from Dr. Fotovat improves confidence and keeps your treatment on the right track.

We live our lives virtually, so why would you trust your orthodontic care to someone who isn’t embracing technological advances? Dr. Fotovat is a board certified, Invisalign Diamond+ Provider orthodontist helping to pioneer this awesome technology.
