Burnsville, MN Orthodontics Office Observes Orthodontic Health Month

ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA – October is National Orthodontic Health Month and Dr. Jennifer Eisenhuth’s  Burnsville orthodontics practice is using the month to encourage more adults who want a perfect smile to consider orthodontic treatment.

There is a variety of aesthetic options that are popular among adults who want straight teeth, but don’t want others to see their appliances.

One option is Invisalign, said Eisenhuth, a Burnsville, MN Invisalign provider. This system uses a series of clear, plastic aligners to gradually straighten teeth over time. They are appealing to adults, because they can be removed for photos, special occasions, when eating, for oral hygiene and when involved in public speaking engagements, to name a few examples.

“When Invisalign aligners are worn, it’s difficult for others to tell that you’re wearing an orthodontic appliance,” Eisenhuth said.
