What Sets us Apart

CUSTOMIZABLE ORTHODONTICS!

THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX!

Get It Straight is one of the world’s most experienced practices in working with Incognito™ braces! Because Dr. Neil Warshawsky is a clinical instructor for 3M, you can feel confident in knowing that all of your questions will be answered by a knowledgeable and caring orthodontist.

 

ALL CLEAR ALIGNERS ARE NOT CREATED EQUALLY.

While full orthodontic treatment is right for some patients, sometimes it only takes a few aligners to get the teeth realigned. With the Get it Straight in-house aligner system, we offer a fast turnaround for clear aligners while also providing affordability.

We are asked frequently about the direct-to-consumer companies that create clear aligners such as Candid or the Smile Direct Club. These cases are built off a single scan. Given that there are no bonded attachments to engage the aligners more tightly, and given that these patients are unable to have contouring done on their teeth, there is a moderate to high failure rate for people who have moderate to severely spacing or crowding.

We leverage our scanning technology to scan your teeth mid-treatment to help keep your treatment on track. Within a few minutes, we know if your smile is tracking well. If it is not tracking well, we can recalibrate and re-create a new treatment path from the point of the scan that day. Efforts like this help to keep the average treatment time for a clear aligner case under a year.

Additionally, we scan all finished cases in our practice. This is very helpful if you lose a retainer. A simple phone call can set the ball in motion to print a 3D model of the finished case so that a replacement retainer may be made.  

SMILE FASTER!

Our office utilizes several different movement-accelerating technologies to help cases to track better and sometimes to finish faster. Using soft pulse technology, advanced next generation multilayer material, micro-osteo perforations, and infrared light, you can actually reduce the time it takes to complete your case. Yes, you heard that correct. You can request to expedite your care and finish faster at Get It Straight!

EXPERIENCE IS THE DIFFERENCE

Dr. Neil Warshawsky has been instrumental in helping develop several different aligner systems. A user of the Invisalign system since 1999, he garnered a plethora of experience in clear aligner therapy early on. He is an original member of their Century Club, the top 100 Invisalign® users. He used his experience with aligners to master the Essix technique—the system that Invisalign was based upon. Dr. Neil  Warshawsky taught the principles of the Essix technique for Dentsply for almost a decade.

Today, Dr. Neil Warshawsky is a key opinion leader for 3M Oral Healthcare, and speaks regularly on several topics ranging from the Clarity™ aligner system to patient-centric care.

Dr. Neil Warshawsky Recognized as a 2013 dentist of distinction

Get It Straight is proud to partner with National Children’s Oral Health Foundation: America’s ToothFairy (NCOHF) to combat pediatric dental disease, a silent epidemic hurting children.

Pediatric dental disease, more commonly known as tooth decay, is recognized as the number-one chronic childhood illness. Statistics show that 50% of children will develop tooth decay by the third grade and 86% by age 17. Suffering in severe pain from the disease, millions of children are unable to eat, sleep, or concentrate in school. Left untreated, rampant tooth decay causes pain, low self-esteem, sleep deprivation, malnourishment, and dangerous infections. Statistics show that 50% of children will suffer from tooth decay by the third grade and 86% will have tooth decay by age 17. Inhibiting a child’s ability to grow and learn, tooth decay and gum disease can also lead to lifelong health problems and limited employment potential.

Dr. Warshawsky has been recognized as a Dentist of Distinction for taking a leadership role in improving children’s oral health in his community by providing critical services to needy teens through the Tomorrow’s SMILES program.
