What We Offer

MYsmile Dental provides orthodontics for the whole family focused on prevention, early detection, and long-term oral wellness.

  • Invisalign® is one of our most in-demand orthodontic treatments—and for good reason. These clear, custom aligners are comfortable, removable, and nearly invisible, making them ideal for patients of all ages.

    At MYsmile Dental, we're proud to be a Diamond Invisalign® Provider, offering expert-level care across three focused treatment paths:

  • Retainers are essential after orthodontic treatment to keep your teeth from shifting out of place. At MYsmile Dental, we provide both removable and fixed retainers based on your individual needs following Invisalign®, 6-Month Smiles, or clear aligner therapy.

    We offer:

    • Clear removable retainers (Essix)

    • Wire-bonded fixed retainers

    • Vivera® retainers for Invisalign® patients

    • Night-time retainers for long-term retention

    Retainers are custom-fit from digital scans to ensure optimal comfort and longevity. If you've lost or damaged your current retainer, we also offer retainer repair and replacement.

    Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars and premolars). These areas have deep grooves where food and plaque can hide—making them more prone to decay.

    Sealants act as a physical barrier, sealing off pits and fissures where toothbrush bristles can't reach. The application:

    • Takes just minutes per tooth

    • Is completely painless—no drilling or numbing

    • Lasts several years with normal wear

    • Reduces the risk of decay by up to 80% in molars

    We typically apply sealants around age 6 (when first molars erupt) and again around age 12 (for second molars).

  • Also known as night guards or bite splints, occlusal guards protect your teeth from damage caused by bruxism (teeth grinding and clenching). If you wake up with headaches, sore jaw muscles, or signs of enamel wear, an occlusal guard may be the solution.

    Benefits of our custom-fit occlusal guards:

    • Protect teeth from wear and fracture

    • Reduce strain on TMJ joints

    • Improve sleep quality by relaxing jaw muscles

    • Custom-molded for comfort and durability

    We use digital impressions to design night guards that fit securely and comfortably—far more effective than over-the-counter options.

    During your visit, we assess your:

    • Daily diet and snacking habits

    • Beverage intake (especially sugary or acidic drinks)

    • Nutritional deficiencies that may affect oral tissues

    • History of decay or periodontal disease

    • Medical conditions like diabetes that impact oral health

    Our goal is to empower you with realistic, sustainable changes that support a healthier mouth and a healthier you.

Whether you're here for a routine cleaning or building a complete care plan, we'll take the time to listen, explain, and support your long-term health.

  • Family-friendly care for kids, teens, and adults

  • Thorough, judgment-free cleanings and exams

  • Emphasis on prevention and patient education

  • Digital imaging and intraoral cameras for clear diagnostics

  • Convenient scheduling and a calm, professional atmosphere

  • Electronic insurance submission and flexible payment options
