How To Get A Perfect Smile Without Braces

Thanks to Smith Orthodontics for sponsoring this post and providing beautiful smiles for Wichita families!

Think braces are just for kids? Think again. Nearly one million adults in America are currently using orthodontics to get picture-perfect, confidence-boosting smiles. Even more surprising is the fact that you can’t tell by looking that many of them are undergoing orthodontic treatment!

How is that even possible?

Our partners at Smith Orthodontics are spilling their secret today – here’s how their adult patients get straight teeth without traditional braces:

Meet Britta

Britta is a patient at Smith orthodontics who completed comprehensive Invisalign treatment with Dr. Brian. She is a busy mom with three kids – Kylie, Kale and Jace. By day she lives an active lifestyle pursuing personal fitness while juggling her kids between baseball and soccer practices. By night Britta works second shift as a nurse at Wesley Medical Center. Keeping these hours can be stressful to say the least, and she doesn’t have time to waste worrying about her teeth or feeling insecure about her smile.

How Invisalign Works

“I felt self conscious about my bottom teeth — when I smiled my teeth looked really crooked.” Britta was excited about Invisalign, because she desired to straighten her teeth but didn’t want the look associated with traditional metal or ceramic braces. She was able to wear the trays all the time with out anyone noticing, and since oral hygiene is important to her, she liked the ability to remove the aligners to brush and floss her teeth without worrying about cleaning around brackets and wires.

It’s important for moms to find products like Invisalign that fit easily into their lifestyle. This allows them to spend more time on the things that matter most to them, and for Britta, that is caring for her family and patients. She feels that part of providing compassionate and encouraging healthcare for patients means greeting them with a warm smile. After Invisalign she smiles more often and with greater confidence than ever before.Smith Ortho Invisalign

For adults who would like to straighten their teeth but prefer to avoid traditional braces, Invisalign treatment is a fantastic option. The simplicity of removable, virtually invisible trays are ideal for adults seeking a better smile while maintaining a professional and mature appearance.

Smith FamilyDr. Brian’s orthodontic dream began when he was just five years old. A few decades later, he is now thrilled to pick up the torch and carry on his dad’s 30-year legacy of orthodontic excellence in Wichita.

After receiving his dental degree from the University of Missouri-Kansas City in 2007, Dr. Brian was accepted into an advanced education program where he completed a year of specialized dental training. He then moved on to an internship with the world-renowned Lancaster Cleft Palate Clinic in Pennsylvania. In 2011, Dr. Brian received his orthodontic certificate and Master’s degree from Indiana University. The combination of these distinctive experiences has developed Dr. Brian into a well-rounded orthodontist who strives for “more than a smile” with each patient he sees. Passionate about helping those in need in our community and across the world, Dr. Brian has volunteered in several public health clinics and has also taken dental outreach trips to Central and South America.

Dr. Brian has been married to his wife, Emily (also a Wichita native), since 2005.  They welcomed their first child, Boone Robert in 2011 and Vera Noelle in 2014. They are also proud parents to two golden retrievers. After many years away from home, they are grateful to settle in Wichita and serve the city they love.
