Braces
in Long Beach

What Are Braces?

Dental braces are tools orthodontists use to correct teeth that grow in with gaps, overlaps, or at an unusual angle. Braces typically consist of brackets, metal wires, and or transparent aligners. Patients, both young and old, benefit by having an even bite and beautiful smile that will last a lifetime. They work by gradually bringing your teeth into alignment, which can improve both the appearance and function of your teeth.

How Long Do Braces Take to Work?

It depends on the individual and what corrections are needed. Depending on the severity of the misalignment, some people finish treatment in under 12 months, while others may need as long as three years. Be sure to stay consistent with your orthodontic’s recommendations for maintaining your braces and with your appointments. Doing so can minimize the treatment time and deliver better results in the long run. Some patients may need a retainer after their braces treatment is over, allowing them to maintain their results.

Benefits of Braces

  • Aligned teeth are easier to clean
  • See a brighter, more balanced smile
  • Improved dental health overall
  • Can improve even severely misaligned teeth
  • Consistent results that can last a lifetime

Are Braces Right For Me?

Below are some signs that braces may be the right choice for you:

  • You want to make it easier to maintain healthy oral hygiene
  • You want to have a more balanced smile that improves confidence
  • You have a complex correction plan for more severe misalignment.
  • You like less daily maintenance of your choice of orthodontics.
  • You want to ensure your treatment has the highest chance of finishing on schedule.

Do Braces Hurt?

There are a lot of nuances to braces and the discomfort your might experience. There is a period when your teeth need to get used to having the braces, similar to breaking in a new pair of shoes. It might be uncomfortable or slightly painful for the first few days after getting braces. However, by the end of the first week, your teeth will likely adjust to braces. You might feel a day of discomfort after our orthodontists readjust your braces, but it won’t be as big of an adjustment as the first time.

I recently visited Dr. Jesmine Boghawala’s long beach dental office for Invisalign, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, my experience was exceptional, and I am excited to share my positive feedback.

First and foremost, Dr. Jesmine Boghawala’s is a fantastic dentist. Her expertise and experience were evident throughout the entire procedure. She took the time to explain each step of the Invisalign process, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed. Her gentle approach and attention to detail made the treatment a breeze. I truly appreciate her professionalism and commitment to patient care.

Furthermore, the entire team at the office was friendly and welcoming. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The employees demonstrated a deep understanding of customer service, making me feel valued and at ease. Their professionalism and dedication to creating a positive atmosphere were evident throughout my visit.

The office itself is brand new, and it is immaculate. The cleanliness and organization of the facility exceeded my expectations.

One of the aspects I truly appreciated about this dental office was the ample parking available.

I discovered her office through my CPA, whose office is located next door. I feel fortunate to have found such an excellent dentist right in my neighborhood. Given my positive experience, I will certainly be returning for any future dental needs.

Dr. Jesmine and Team have always been a breathe of fresh air when it comes to Dentistry customer service and care. I live in Long Beach but I started at their new Cerritos location. The location is beautiful and well kept and their staff were always welcoming, warm and hospitable. They were always very helpful when explaining services needed, insurance questions and best short term and long term options for me personally. As soon as I heard about their Long Beach location opening, I jump on the opportunity to schedule appointments there too and as expected, the location is clean, aesthetic and staff is equally as welcoming as Cerritos. From one woman owned small business owner to another, they know what matters to customers and they are implementing it at the highest level. I’ll be referring local friends and family to them for sure!
