Straighten Your Smile Seamlessly with Invisalign

August 15, 2014

177000598There are many reasons why someone would be insecure about their smile. Unfortunately, very few people are born with a naturally beautiful, perfect smile, and others may do everything in their power to get the smile of their dreams. If you have misaligned teeth, you may have been turned away from the idea of braces because you do not want to have a mouth full of metal. If you feel as though you have to live with a misaligned smile for the rest of your life, Dr. Marianna Gaitsgory is able to put that fear to rest by offering her patients Invisalign.

Invisalign works through a series of aligning trays, and each tray signifies a new stage in your straightening process. You wear one tray for an allotted amount of time, and when it is time to begin the next stage, simply proceed to the next aligning tray. One of the wonderful things about Invisalign is the fact that you are able to look like your natural self while receiving the much needed orthodontic treatment you deserve. The trays sit nearly invisibly on your smile, so you do not have to worry about living with uncomfortable wires and brackets normally associated with traditional braces.

Another wonderful aspect about Invisalign is the fact that you are able to have better oral health during your treatment. Whenever you need to brush, floss, eat, or drink, simply remove and reapply the tray when needed! Invisalign is used to treat overbites, underbites, crossbites, open bites, crowded teeth, and gapped teeth. If you feel as though Dr. Gaitsgory is able to help you achieve the perfectly aligned smile you have always wanted with Invisalign, contact our Framingham, MA dental office today!

Let Dr. Gaitsgory Help With Your TMJ Pain

May 29, 2014

shutterstock_160305989

Living with any sort of pain can be extremely hard and taxing on the body. TMJ disorder, or temporomandibular joint disorder, can involve pain around the ears and jaw, leaving you in extreme discomfort. TMJ can cause insatiable headaches, clicking or popping noises of the jaw, damaged teeth, and tension in the jaw, neck, head, and shoulder muscles. Dr. Marianna Gaitsgory is able to relieve you of your TMJ disorder in the comfort of her Framingham, MA office.
The temporomandibular joint is a very sensitive joint, as it is located where the skull meets the lower jaw. If you experience high volumes of stress, that can be a contributing factor to your pain. Even small things like changes in your eating habits, changes in activity, and any sort of injury or trauma can cause the joint to go out of alignment. The way the temporomandibular joint works is it is surrounded by certain muscles that contract and relax, all of which make the opening and closing of your mouth effortless.

Other things that can affect your TMJ pain are certain diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis. Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, can also seriously exacerbate the pain, as clenching and overstressing of the muscles causes a lot of damage to the joint. Also, misaligned teeth and an off bite can create a misbalance with the way the joint and the muscles surrounding it work together. One of the ways Dr. Gaitsgory is able to relieve you of your TMJ pain is by offering it Night Guards, Bite Guards, and Bite Adjustments to her patients. These devices prevent your jaw from clenching, and Dr. Gaitsgory is able to recommend the best treatment option for you.

If you feel as though you suffer from TMJ pain, contact our office and schedule an appointment with Dr. Gaitsgory immediately. There are many ways we are able to help our patients alleviate their TMJ pain, and a lot of them are simple.

Botox and Dermal Fillers with Dr. Gaitsgory

January 13, 2014

At Framingham Premier Dental, we understand that your mouth is not the only thing that should look great on your face. There is time and effort involved in making you look exactly how you want to look. We want to be a part of not only making your smile perfect, but your face as well. That is why we offer Botox and dermal fillers at our Framingham office, making sure you get all of your needs met with Dr. Gaitsgory.

Though some may not know it, but there is a difference between Botox and dermal fillers. Botox targets the wrinkles on and around the forehead and brow area, also known as frown lines. When injected, Botox’s purified protein base ceases muscle contractions, giving your skin the timeless look you’ve been wanting. Another thing people may not know about Botox is that it can help with your TMJ symptoms. You really get two things in one when it comes to Botox. The results for Botox can last for up to four months, and can be administered from then on, making sure you’re always looking your best.

Dermal fillers, however, target the smile lines around your mouth, also known as parenthesis. In this instance, dermal fillers plump the skin, making the lines disappear. The results of dermal fillers can last up to a year! Whether you go with Botox or dermal fillers, you are sure to be looking great at all times. Dr. Gaitsgory learned to administer such injections through the American Academy of Facial Esthetics, so you are sure to be in excellent hands when you visit her office. If you would like to set up an appointment with Dr. Gaitsgory for Botox or dermal fillers, call our Framingham office today!

Dr. Gaitsgory Cares About Your Child’s Teeth

December 4, 2013

shutterstock_118749670Here at Framingham Premier Dental, we appreciate the importance of your child’s teeth, and Dr. Gaitsgory is ready and able to start your child off in the right direction. We understand that children may have fears when visiting dentists, which is why our friendly and knowledgeable team is ready to welcome them with open arms.

Child dentistry is very important because it can prevent problems before they arise, and sets up your child for success in the future. A common practice in children’s dentistry is dental sealants. Because a child’s tooth is more susceptible to cavities and decay, sealants provide protection by having a plastic covering painted in the grooves of the tooth to protect from future or further harm. Sealants are primarily applied to premolars and permanent molars, as the grooves are deeper than the other teeth and more susceptible to deterioration.

Along with sealants, fluoride treatments are also involved in child dentistry. Fluoride plays a part in preventing decay, and acts as a magnet for attracting other minerals to build strong teeth like Calcium and Phosphate.   Although fluoride does not prevent cavities from emerging, it can certainly delay their arrival, giving your child a better chance to have beautiful, healthy teeth. Establishing routine brushing and flossing habits early on is a sure way of having your child’s smile be as beautiful as possible, and  Dr. Gaitsgory as well as the Framingham Premier Dental team are here to make sure your child has an awesome experience.

Framingham Premier Dental provides quality dental care to help you achieve the beautiful smile that you deserve. Our Framingham dental office serves patients from Middlesex County, MA as well as Natick, Sudbury, Ashland, Southborough, Westborough, Marlborough, Hopkinton, Holliston, and Sherborn. To schedule your appointment, call our office today.
