WORTH IT

Had horrible sharp pain in my jaw when I bit down.. very scary. Bite was misaligned, jaw and teeth position was off. Conventional dental solution = shatter your jaw, wire you up for 6 months & you eat through a straw, let rebuild the bones anew. Instead, Dr. Ira used a plastic retainer-like appliance to quite literally FIX my bite, jaw and face! Absolutely Amazing Results.

Thanks for sharing your story. If you feel comfortable, it would be great to see some photos of your treatment, and your new smile.

Sorry, a plastic retainer does not LITERALLY fix a bite.

Also this is not surgery.
