Arkansas resident Dr. Jose Turcios is highly experienced in dentistry, with nearly
two decades of experience in the field. Currently, Dr. Jose Turcios applies his
expertise at the Healthy Smiles dental practices in Little Rock and North Little
Rock, Arkansas, where he works with orthodontics, root canals, Invisalign, and
many other dental procedures.
Invisalign is a dental treatment that uses clear aligners made of plastic material
to correct the position of teeth. Although similar to braces, Invisalign treatment
differs in that the aligners straighten teeth faster, are removable, cause less
discomfort and are less noticeable.
The Invisalign treatment, which is custom-made for each patient, works by fitting
firmly over the teeth to gradually shift them to the correct positions. A patient
undergoing the treatment will periodically switch to different aligners so that the
position of the teeth continue to improve. Compliance indicators, an added
benefit, change the color of the aligners so a patient knows when to switch to a
new set. Currently, Invisalign consists of over 700 patents backed by 20 years of
research and has been utilized in over four million cases.
