As a family dentist, we love providing our community with high-quality, comprehensive dentistry. And we\u2019re proud of the relationships we\u2019ve built with our patients over the years and the trust they’ve put in us. Now, we\u2019re also excited about expanding the care we provide by offering three new services: Invisalign clear braces, Botox, and treatment for sleep apnea in Buckhead. Learn more below about how these services can improve your oral health and help you feel fantastic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Sleep Apnea Therapy <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An estimated 22 million Americans have sleep apnea, which leads to chronic daytime fatigue and also increases the risk of many other serious conditions such as heart disease, obesity, stroke, and depression. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dentists can play a big role in the treatment of this common\ncondition. In fact, it may surprise you that we\u2019re often the first healthcare\nprofessionals to recognize the signs of sleep apnea in our patients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, although the only treatments for many years were either\nsurgery or a CPAP machine, now we provide simple,\nnon-invasive oral appliances<\/a> that are lightweight and portable. These\ncustom-made devices work by gently repositioning the jaws at night to open the\nairway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This effective treatment option makes it easier than ever to\nget better sleep, improve your quality of life, and stay healthy at the same\ntime. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Botox<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most people know about the cosmetic benefits of Botox but aren\u2019t aware of its therapeutic potential. Botox relaxes the muscles, which is why it\u2019s great for treating the wrinkles around the forehead, eyes, and mouth. This makes it a perfect complement to other types of cosmetic dentistry and allows us to restore a natural-looking and relaxed appearance to the smile.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it’s also very effective for treating temporomandibular (TMJ) disorder as well as clenching and grinding. Since the cause of clenching and grinding is overactive facial muscles in the cheeks and jaws, Botox can quickly relax these muscles to provide temporary relief from jaw pain. This is perfect when you’re waiting for the long-term results from other treatments to take effect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, Botox treatment is fast and easy, so it can be conveniently scheduled at the same time as your regular 6-month checkups. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Having a straight, even smile and an aligned bite is important\nfor your oral health and adds to your self-confidence. And being able to\nachieve these results discreetly, without metal brackets and wires, is even\nbetter!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are several additional benefits of Invisalign,\nincluding: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
