Very professional, relatable and nice. Dr Mueller explained options for work needed in a way I could understand but was not pushy. This allowed me to decide on the best treatment going forward. I didn’t have to wait months to get my appointments scheduled and I left feeling confident that my concerns were addressed. If you are looking for a dentist, I would recommend calling for an appointment.

Invisalign® makes it possible to improve your smile without allowing orthodontic treatment to dominate your appearance. Instead of metal brackets and wires, treatment uses a series of transparent trays that fit closely over your teeth and apply carefully controlled pressure. Each new set continues the planned movement, gradually addressing your alignment concerns while keeping your orthodontic care relatively inconspicuous.
Straighter teeth can offer meaningful benefits beyond a cosmetic transformation. Crowding and overlapping may create narrow spaces that trap plaque and food debris, while certain alignment or bite problems can contribute to uneven forces when you chew. Improving these concerns may make daily oral hygiene more effective, promote balanced function, and reduce excessive wear on individual teeth.
Advantages of Invisalign®
- Understated appearance – Transparent aligners let your natural smile remain visible without prominent metal orthodontic components.
- Personalized fit – Your trays are created specifically for your teeth and planned movements throughout each phase of treatment.
- Freedom with food – Remove your aligners at mealtimes instead of changing your diet to accommodate fixed brackets and wires.
- Convenient dental hygiene – Continue brushing and flossing normally after taking out your trays.
- Planned tooth movement – Digital treatment planning establishes a customized sequence for progressively improving your alignment.
- Adaptable to your routine – Invisalign® can accommodate workdays, special occasions, vacations, exercise, and other everyday activities.
Cosmetic Treatments That Can Elevate Your Final Result
- Teeth whitening – Helps reduce discoloration and surface stains for a brighter appearance that complements your straighter teeth.
- Tooth bonding – Uses natural-looking composite material to improve small chips, irregular contours, minor gaps, and worn edges.
- Dental veneers – Enhance the visible surfaces of selected teeth when you want to improve their shape, proportions, color, or symmetry.
- Smile makeover – Coordinates multiple cosmetic treatments into an individualized plan for more comprehensive aesthetic improvements.
