It is simply amazing what Invisalign can do to straighten your teeth.  This case is a great example.  At first glance, one would assume that the crowded tooth may have to be pulled because it doesn’t look like there’s any room to move it back into place. 

Invisalign doesn’t just move teeth.  It also expands the arch by placing gentle pressure on specific areas.  The case shown above was accomplished in just over a year!

When teeth begin to crowd and become crooked, it only becomes worse year-by-year.  So don’t delay, call us today for a free Invisalign consultation to see if you’d be a good candidate for Invisalign (817) 292-5957 or visit or website at www.hulendental.com

Don’t delay getting that broken tooth fixed!

Broken ToothA tooth breaks, chips or feels loose…but it doesn’t hurt.  We see it in the dental office everyday, small problems that turn into big problems down the line.  When a tooth breaks or feels loose, something has been compromised and if it’s not fixed immediately, bigger problems can occur such as infection, more tooth structure can break off or you could even lose the tooth altogether.

The key is: Don’t delay.  At the first sign of a problem, see your dentist.  Many times, you can actually SAVE yourself money by getting treatment quickly.  You could possibly avoid, for example, having to have a root canal or losing the tooth (in which case you would have to replace the missing tooth with a bridge or implant).

Call your dentist today or call our office at 817-292-5957.  Our office is in Fort Worth, Texas.  For more information, visit us at www.hulendental.com

See For Yourself!

Time and time again, our patients will say after their first visit with us: “I’ve never had an exam like that before!  That was Great!”

Why?  All because at the end of their comprehensive exam, we give them a “tour of your mouth” with the intraoral camera.  You see what we see, except better: Try your teeth magnified 10 times on a television screen!  All doubts erased and everything face-value for what it is.

I’ve always said, I wish my mechanic had a camera to show me why he had to make a repair on my car.  Without a picture, I’m completely at his mercy and can only hope that he’s being honest with me.  At Stovall & Cheng, DDS, a picture says a thousand words.  You are literally in “partnership” with us in seeing why we give a particular recommendation. 

Isn’t technology great in 2010?  You deserve to be in an office that utilizes the latest technology to do great dentistry and to give you a comfortable, informed experience.  With a camera just a little larger than a ball point pen, see for yourself!

Teeth grinding can destroy teeth, A nightguard can help!

Before

Teeth Grinding or “Bruxing” is one of the most destructive forces to teeth.  What makes it so destructive is that most people aren’t even aware that they are doing it.  The photo above shows what can result from not being proactive when you have a grinding habit.

With the stresses of today’s world, many people take out that stress on their teeth while they’re asleep.  Studies have shown that the jaw muscles can generate up to 5-6 hundred pounds of pressure on the teeth!  Some people even find that they are clenching or grinding during the day.  Ever find yourself with teeth clenched together tightly as you’re concentrating at work or perhaps stuck in traffic to/from work?

The good news is, whether you feel that you are grinding/clenching or your dentist finds evidence in your mouth that you are doing so, a form-fit mouthguard can be made to help protect your teeth.  A mouthguard will not make you stop your habit but it will surely help protect your teeth from the destructive forces of bruxism.  It only takes two visits:  The first visit is to take molds of your teeth.  The models of your mouth are then sent to a dental lab where a precision-fit mouthguard is made to fit your teeth.

A mouthguard (also called a nightguard) cost around $400-500.  This is a small price to pay for the amount in dental work it can help you save from having as a result from chipping/wearing away your teeth!

If you find yourself waking up with sore jaws, or you seem to breaking/chipping teeth all the time, if you have constant “tension headaches,” or if all of your teeth are sensitive to cold or just sore all the time, chances are, you are grinding/clenching at night.

Call your dentist or our office today for an appointment!  817-292-5957

After- What a difference after full mouth reconstruction!

Invisalign helps open bites from tongue thrust

Do you have an open bite from tongue thrust?  Invisalign can help with getting your teeth back together, depending on the severity of your space.  The patient shown in the following pictures had already gone through braces for several years but the teeth relapsed.  After only 6 months of Invisalign treatment at our office, we were able to put her front teeth back together!  To make sure they stay in place this time (and also to fight the forces of her tongue thrusting habit), we placed a thin metal bar on the back sides of these teeth that are obviously not visible.  Call us today for a free Invisalign consultation! 817-292-5957
