Is This Woman Wearing Braces ??
Yes !! Behind The Teeth - Where They Don't Show!

The World of Esthetic Orthodontics

The majority of patients exploring orthodontic therapy realize that a "Great Smile" will improve their facial symmetry and overall appearance. They desire the benefit of straight teeth but sometimes are hesitant to commit to braces that will show.  For these esthetically conscious children and adults, concealed Lingual orthodontics provides an excellent alternative to traditional braces.   Patients can enjoy the process of  orthodontia while still retaining a natural smile.  Another popular option among patients desiring cosmetic orthodontics is a combination of upper concealed and lower clear braces.

Lingual (meaning tongue side of the teeth) braces were invented in 1979 by the late Dr. Craven Kurz of Beverly Hills.  The principles of traditional braces are utilized in this amazing technique along with special instrumentation, equipment,  doctor and staff training.  Dr. Paz had the distinction of working closely with Dr. Kurz as his mentor in Lingual orthodontics.   When Dr. Kurz retired Dr. Paz was chosen to succeed him in his Beverly Hills practice.

Anyone with cosmetic concerns, from models, actors, business professionals to your next-door neighbor, can benefit from Esthetic Orthodontics and this "Invisible" revolutionary technique.  To meet Dr. Paz and receive a complimentary examination, please call either of our offices.
