Invisalign is a treatment that uses clear aligner trays to gently move teeth into place. The trays are worn in a series over time to create a beautiful smile. Invisalign is a popular alternative to traditional braces, and does not have any brackets or wires. The Invisalign trays are discrete and are comfortable when worn, and do not cause gum or mouth irritation.
The Invisalign aligner trays are worn anywhere between 20-22 hours a day. The time worn each day depends on the patient’s treatment plan and the level of correction needed. Invisalign trays are easily removable for drinking and eating, and have a blue indicator to let patients know when they have worn the trays for the required amount of time each day. The blue indicator is great for teens using Invisalign, and helps parents know if their child has worn their trays for the correct amount of time.
Having that beautiful straight smile is important, and we want our patients to be proud of their smile. A smile is the first thing you see, and our team will listen to each patient’s goals to ensure we get you the results you desire. Invisalign is a popular choice for both teens and adults. This treatment helps if you have overcrowding, chewing, or overbite issues. Older teens and adults can follow the instructions daily and ensure the trays are worn for the required amount of time. On average Invisalign treatment takes between 6-18 months which is comparable to the treatment time for traditional braces. During our Invisalign consultation process we will discuss each patient’s age, level of correction, and smile goals to help to choose which orthodontic treatment is best.

A mouth guard is specifically designed to help protect your smile. For nighttime mouth guards, you’ll wear a custom-fitted appliance to help prevent the effects of bruxism (tooth grinding). For sports and other close-contact activities, a mouth guard helps to prevent injury and damage to your teeth. Mouth guards are made to fit comfortably and easily over your existing teeth.
You might need a mouth guard if you or your child plays close contact sports. For these types of sports, there is more of a chance of injury to the mouth and face than other types of recreational activities. If you grind your teeth at night, you will benefit from wearing a mouth guard that is made for you to wear throughout the night. Both mouth guards provide cushion between and in front of your teeth to prevent damage to your smile.
To determine if you may need a mouth guard, we can perform an examination and ask about different activities that you may do while out of the dental office. If you play sports, we’ll suggest wearing a mouth guard to prevent future injuries and facial trauma. We can even examine your teeth to check for signs of bruxism, and if we notice there is a problem, we will suggest wearing a nighttime mouth guard. You can have your mouth guard replaced at any time as it shows signs of wear.
The mouth guard process is quick, easy and convenient. You first come into our office and have impressions taken. These detailed molds of your teeth and gums allow us to create a customized mouth guard just for you. You’ll come back in at a later time to have the mouth guard fitted and adjusted to ensure that it’s comfortable. In order for the mouth guard to work properly, it should be worn either while playing sports or when sleeping at night. You can come in to have the appliance fully replaced as it shows signs of wear or damage. Most mouth guards can last for many years before replacement is needed.

Welcome to the Noah Smile Group, where your oral health is our primary concern. Let’s delve into the world of dental night guards to explore their role in oral health. We’ll address some common questions that you may have, and by the end, you’ll understand why we’re the go-to choice in Brooklyn for all your dental needs.
Night guards are customized devices made from plastic materials. They are designed to fit over your teeth, protecting them from damage during sleep. Night guards are often used by individuals who grind their teeth at night, a condition known as bruxism.
Nighttime teeth grinding can lead to a variety of oral health issues. Not only can it wear down your teeth, but it can also lead to jaw pain, headaches, and more severe conditions such as temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Wearing a night guard can help prevent these complications by reducing the pressure and protecting your teeth.
