Dr. Paz has been a dentist for over 25 years. He and his wife, Barbara, have made Warrenton their home for over 20 years, raising seven kids in a community that they have felt the very best place to raise a family. Now they are enduring the quiet of the empty nest with the last three kids in college and the rest of the kids and grandkids scattered over 3 states. Since graduating from dental school, Dr. Paz has taken advanced training in Orthodontics and TMJ therapy. Dr. Paz is not a board certified specialist in this field. As a General Dentist, he is qualified to treat oral conditions representing all fields of dentistry without limitation. Dr. Paz has a highly technical approach to dentistry. He uses Laser Comfort Dental treatments for cavities and minor surgical corrections. He also usesInvisalign, the invisible braces for straightening teeth. This is the best method of obtaining a beautiful smile that others may never see you wearing.

Dr. Paz also uses Cerec 3D, a CAD-CAM method of making a beautiful all-porcelain crown or inlay in only one visit, saving the multiple visits it once required for these restorations. Computers speed information and images to workstations and insurance companies. Digital x-rays cut down on the amount of radiation to which patients are exposed, and computerized anesthesia eliminates most of the sharp feelings once associated with getting numb.

Invisalign straightens teeth to give you the confidence of a great smile. Using a series of clear, virtually invisible aligners, Invisalign gently and gradually moves your teeth based on the treatment plan prescribed by your orthodontist or dentist. And, there are no wires or brackets so youll have confidence in your smile during and after treatment. In fact, most people wont even know youre wearing Invisalign. And, Invisalign aligners are removable so you can eat whatever you want and easily brush and floss as you normally would.

How does Invisalign Work? The virtually invisible aligners, which are made of a thermoplastic material uniquely developed for the Invisalign treatment plan, look similar to teeth-whitening trays. A series of Invisalign aligners are custom-made for you, to move your teeth in the sequence determined by your doctor. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before moving onto the next set of aligners in your treatment plan.

Will wearing Invisalign aligners affect my speech? Invisalign aligners may temporarily affect the speech of some people, and you may have a slight lisp for a day or two. However, as you get used to having aligners in your mouth, any lisp caused by the aligners should disappear.

Does insurance cover Invisalign? Because medical benefits differ from policy to policy, you should review your personal coverage plan and check with your insurance provider. In general, if a patient has orthodontic coverage, Invisalign should be covered to the same extent as conventional braces.

Does Invisalign really work? Yes. Over 1.5 million patients with a wide variety of dental challenges have been treated with Invisalign. Invisalign was developed with orthodontists and used in dental practices worldwide.

Though not as esthetically appealing as clear aligners like Invisalign, todays traditional braces have been improved so they are smaller, less visible and more efficient. These newer wire-and-bracket braces also help to correct misalignment much faster than before.
