Orthodontic treatment requires careful consideration. The cost, time, and lifestyle changes that occur are factors that must be evaluated. This is why a thorough consultation with Dr. Mahler is beneficial, as he can go over the details of treatment and the ultimate benefits you can expect once your teeth are in proper alignment. Using Invisalign clear aligners as opposed to traditional metal braces, he can make the process more enjoyable so that you can look forward to a newer, straighter smile. Call our dental office to find out what we can do to realign your teeth for optimal function and aesthetics with orthodontics in Chicago.
Invisalign clear aligners are an alternative method of orthodontic treatment that many people turn to if they want to avoid traditional metal braces. Consisting of clear plastic aligners that are custom-made based on impressions taken of your teeth, they gently shift teeth so that overcrowding, gaps, and bite misalignment are fixed, creating a more beautiful smile while improving your oral and overall health.
When a child’s upper jaw is too narrow, it’s often recommended that they receive a palate expander. This device is designed to gently adjust and widen the jaw so that crowding, bite problems, and other more serious dental problems do not arise throughout adulthood.
This process makes it possible for permanent teeth to move into place accordingly, and it often reduces the amount of time a child will spend wearing braces.
Dr. Mahler and our team will work with you to develop a plan that correlates with your child’s unique needs, making sure that they remain comfortable throughout their visit. We’ll discuss the reason for palate expansion as well as how they work at home. If fixed in place, you will receive a key that will be used to turn the screw that widens the device.
Our patients’ satisfaction is our top priority. From routine checkups to advanced dental care, we make sure every smile leaves our office healthier and happier.
Experience is always top tier! Staff and doctor very friendly
Flawless.
We were seen promptly. The receptionist was pleasant and efficient. Dr Mahler was exceedingly personable and thorough and explained everything in detail. The office was organized and clean with very modern equipment. All aspects of the visit were first rate
I had a wonderful experience at the dentist office today. Dr. Mahler is an excellent dentist. He takes his time and explains to you was he's doing while he performs his job. His staff is very professional and kind.
Great expertise. A 1 in a million phenomenon. The destroyer of TMJ. Other dentists tremble at the sound of the name doctor Mahler (and I’m not talking about the weight loss doctor in Lockport) because they know they cannot compete no matter how hard they try.
Always 5 stars! He’s THE expert in TMJ and problem cases like mine😁
Just had my first visit to Smile 312 in the Loop—spotless office, friendly staff, and they’ve got Netflix to keep you entertained. Went in for a cleaning and check-up; dropped about $150 after insurance, which felt fair. They broke down the costs and insurance stuff clearly. Scheduling was easy, and... read more
I’ve been a happy patient of Smile 312 for 20 years. Seeing Dr. Mahler really changed the trajectory of my oral health. Charming office, personable staff, painless procedures, and efficiently ran - Very minimum wait time, if any! I’m spoiled for sure.
Dr Mahler is very knowledgeable and thoughtful. He will do what’s best for his patient and walk you through the process so you are fully informed. His staff is also very helpful and customer centric. Great practice!
When I first arrived at Smile312, my mouth was in complete disarray—I honestly didn’t even know where to begin. That all changed when I met Dr. Mohler. From our very first interaction, he established a sense of trust and professionalism that immediately put me at ease. He took the time... read more
