Like glaciers and tectonic plates, teeth are slowly yet surely on the move as they attempt to turn their host’s mouth into frozen tundra and then rip it apart like a bite-size Pangaea. Defeat devious teeth with today’s Groupon: for $79, you get a dental exam (a $75 value), cleaning (up to a $180 value), digital photos (a $40 value), whitening pen (a $95 value), and Invisalign impressions (a $450 value), plus $1,000 toward the full teeth-straightening treatment at Pacific Dental Care, located in Glendale.
Invisalign straightens crooked chompers with a combination of highly advanced 3-D computer graphics and the spells of old-fashioned orthodontia. The Invisalign process eschews cumbersome braces for clear, removable aligners that are virtually invisible to the unclothed eye. An initial dental exam, including cleaning, digital photos, and Invisalign impressions of your mouth terrain, paves the way for a flurry of calibrated teeth sheaths that are designed to slowly shift walnut crackers into perfect alignment. The take-home whitening pen shines visible bones to flatter future symmetry. The total cost of an Invisalign treatment varies for each customer (it can run anywhere from $2,000 to $8,000); this Groupon gets you $1,000 toward that final cost. View some Invisalign FAQs here.
Depending on the client’s teeth, as few as 12 or as many as 48 separate aligners need to be worn during a period of 6–15 months before the straightening effect finally self-actuates in a sudden burst of pink smoke and slobber. Aligners are removed only when eating, brushing, flossing, or modeling a finely clenched jaw.
Cozy environs envelop each tooth in Pacific Dental Care's spic-and-span dental den that houses an expert staff led by Dr. Marine Martirosyan, a former clinical faculty member at USC. After settling in the comfortable treatment rooms adorned with up-to-the-moment teeth technologies, patients receive nerve-easing care from their affable hygienists, who calmly detail each procedure and field questions about plaque’s butterfly-like metamorphosis into tartar.
