ASTON, PA, December 18, 2012 (Press-News.org) The team at Dental Health Care Associates provides a wide range of treatments, from general dentistry to advanced cosmetic treatments. The team is now offering orthodontics services through Dr. Daniel H.C. Chen at Optimal Orthodontics.

Optimal Orthodontics, located upstairs from the Dental Health Care Associates office, provides orthodontic treatment for adults and children of all ages.

Finding The Best Orthodontic Option for You

Just as each person's smile is different, orthodontic needs will vary from person to person. Patients who need orthodontic treatment should be sure they are seeing a qualified orthodontist who can provide them with options that will suit their individual needs and lifestyles. For patients near Aston, PA, Dr. Chen is that orthodontist.

Invisalign for Adults

The Invisalign clear braces system is often the preferred orthodontic treatment for adults. It is a modern, effective solution for teeth that are crooked or spaced too closely or too far apart. It can also be used to correct overbites, underbites, and crossbites.

Many adults choose Invisalign because the aligners are made of clear, hard plastic that is virtually invisible. This inconspicuous treatment is an attractive option for patients who prefer an option that does not affect their appearance. Many patients also find Invisalign to be a more comfortable and convenient option. The plastic aligners are less likely to irritate the mouth than metal braces, and the removable trays make it easier to maintain oral hygiene.

Invisalign Teen

Invisalign is also a popular choice for teens. Many teens and young adults prefer to wear the clear Invisalign aligners instead of metal braces because they aren't noticeable. There is a special version of Invisalign created specifically for younger patients. Invisalign Teen includes a Blue Dot Wear Indicator, which encourages the patient to follow the treatment guidelines, ensuring that the treatment is effective.

Traditional Braces for Adults

For adult patients who are not good candidates for Invisalign, are looking for a less expensive treatment, or simply prefer not to have the responsibility associated with Invisalign, traditional metal braces are a good treatment option.

Today's metal braces are much more attractive and less noticeable than ever before. Using metal braces, adults can shift their teeth into their proper places and achieve a beautiful, straight smile.

Orthodontic Treatment for Kids

Dental Health Care Associates provides children's dentistry, and many children will need orthodontic treatment at some point. Traditional braces are the best option for children who have not yet reached their teen years, as the Invisalign system places significant responsibility upon the patient to remember to wear the aligners properly. With metal braces, children's teeth can be moved into the correct positions, enabling them to chew properly and improving the smile's appearance.

Trusted Orthodontist Dr. Daniel Chen

Children and adults alike can benefit from seeing Dr. Chen, a trusted dental care provider for patients in the Philadelphia area. Since completing extensive training in orthodontics, Dr. Chen has worked as an orthodontist since 2003 and has spent several years teaching orthodontics at the University of Pennsylvania Department of Orthodontics. Patients who see Dr. Chen at Optimal Orthodontics can be confident that he can help them obtain a smile they'll be proud to show.
