Are you accepting new patients?

How does Invisalign work?
“During your initial consultation, we will determine if Invisalign is the right treatment for you. Once confirmed, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan and take impressions of your teeth. These impressions are sent to Invisalign, where 3D computer technology is used to create a series of custom-made aligners. Each aligner is precisely designed to fit your teeth and gradually shift them into the desired position. Dr. Daniel Sun is a certified Invisalign provider and will guide you through every step of the process.”
What are Dental Implants, and what does the procedure involve?
“Dental implants are a highly effective solution for replacing missing teeth. They consist of titanium posts or frames that are surgically placed under your gums. These implants fuse with the bone in your jaw, acting as roots for replacement teeth, such as crowns made of porcelain. Once attached, the implants look and function just like natural teeth. Ask Dr. Daniel Sun if dental implants are the right option for you.”
When should I bring my child in for their first visit?
“It’s recommended to bring your child in for their first dental visit by age 3. Early visits help establish a good oral hygiene routine and ensure the proper development of teeth. Studies show that cavities can form as early as age 3, especially from habits like sleeping with a bottle. The first visit focuses on both the child’s oral health and educating parents on proper oral care.”
What is Cosmetic Dentistry?
“Cosmetic dentistry is focused on improving the appearance of your teeth and smile. Whether your teeth are crooked, stained, chipped, or missing, cosmetic procedures such as teeth whitening, veneers, and full smile reconstruction can transform your smile, giving you the confidence to smile more freely.”
Is Sedation Dentistry a good choice for me?
“Sedation dentistry may be right for you if you experience:
- Intense fear of dental visits
- A negative past dental experience
- Sensitive teeth or a fear of needles
- Strong gag reflex or difficulty keeping your mouth open during treatment
- Need for extensive treatment or multiple procedures at once
Dr. Daniel Sun offers a variety of sedation options to ensure you are comfortable throughout your dental procedures.
” How long does Invisalign treatment take?
“The length of Invisalign treatment depends on the complexity of your case. On average, treatment can take anywhere from 6 to 18 months, but the exact duration will be determined during your consultation. Invisalign is often faster than traditional braces, and we will provide a treatment timeline tailored to your needs.”
Will dental implants last a lifetime?
“With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. They are made from durable materials like titanium, which bond securely with the bone in your jaw. Good oral hygiene, regular checkups, and a healthy lifestyle all contribute to the longevity of dental implants.”
Are Botox treatments available at Maple Dentistry?
“Yes, we offer Botox for therapeutic purposes, including the treatment of TMJ, tension headaches, and migraines. Botox can also be used for cosmetic enhancements. Consult with Dr. Daniel Sun to learn how Botox can benefit your specific needs.”
