wire in their mouth."
After having a large gap in between my front teeth for 18 years, I figured it was time to visit a
dentist. I chose Dr. Prager simply because he did WHAT I WANTED! Other dentists wanted
to straighten my top and bottom teeth…even though I didn’t want my bottom teeth
straightened; I didn’t feel the need. Dr. Prager gave me Invisalign and after that I could feel
and notice a difference after the first week, but the cool thing was, nobody could see them. I
would recommend Invisalign to anybody who wants straight teeth without metal wire in their
mouth. It’s really easy and for the most part painless.

"It was much faster and easier than I expected. …I am very pleased with the results."
I am on the last leg of straightening my lower teeth with the Invisalign method. For my teeth
the process took 9 months. It was much faster and easier than I expected. …I am very
pleased with the results. For the first time my lower teeth are not crooked. Now I have a
complete smile.

"I recommend this procedure to anyone who wants to improve their smile."
My experience with Invisalign was very pleasant. I wore braces for three years when I was
younger, so I have an experience to compare it to. Braces were so uncomfortable and
painful for me. The Invisalign aligners were very comfortable in comparison. I am absolutely
impressed and satisfied with the final results! I recommend this procedure to anyone who
wants to improve their smile.

"The (Invisalign) aligners were comfortable, unnoticeable and easy to maintain."
I could not have been happier during the process or more satisfied with the end results. The
aligners were comfortable, unnoticeable and easy to maintain. The overall process from the
initial screening to the final retainer seemed to move effortlessly. I would strongly
recommend using Invisalign aligners to anyone interested in an alternative method for
straightening their teeth.

"We just wanted to get close to see if your teeth are real because they look so
perfect."
After completing my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Prager, I happened to be giving a speech
to a large group of women. At the end of the session, people were invited to come to the
front and ask questions. The first two women said ‘We don’t want to ask you anything – we
just wanted to get close to see if your teeth are real because they look so perfect.’ I
answered them that my teeth were ‘real,’ but perfect thanks to Dr. Prager’s expertise and
Invisalign.

"I can honestly say that Invisalign braces were much easier and made a bigger
difference than I ever anticipated."
Invisalign changes large and small
I can honestly say that Invisalign braces were much easier and made a bigger difference
than I ever anticipated. Wearing the braces is truly invisible and very few people noticed
during the 18 months I wore them. There were also a couple of unanticipated side effects.
First, I always had difficulty flossing my teeth like I knew I should. Taking out the liners to
eat, however, really motivated me to clean and floss my teeth every single time before I put
them back in. Now I can’t imagine not flossing before I put the retainer liners in every night.
Also, wearing the liners kept me from snacking because it was too much trouble to remove
the braces, eat a piece of candy of something I shouldn’t have eaten anyway, clean my
teeth, and put the liners back in. So Invisalign was a good diet control for 18 months, and it
remains easy for me not to eat between meals.
It probably goes without saying that Invisalign braces resulted in a change for the better in
my appearance. Even half way through the process, everyone noticed the difference when
we got together for a big family reunion. And I loved the photos (for a change).
Now I am finished with the actual liners and people who haven’t seen me for a long while
always comment on how nice I look. I’m not sure they realize it is because my teeth are
straight now, but it’s obvious I look better than they remembered me! Those who see me
everyday have got used to how I look, but there are a few little things I still notice. I can take
a bite of an apple or a sandwich with my front teeth, and don’t have to bite from the side of
my mouth any longer. Also, I no longer have to take my glasses off when I eat sweet corn
because little bits of corn don’t splash up onto my glasses with each bite. I still notice the
nice, straight bite marks whenever I do bite something with my front teeth. Gone are the
jagged pointy bites. And I am much more happy to have my picture taken now that I can
smile with confidence.

"Before starting Invisalign, I always had closed mouth smiles since my teeth were very
crooked. Smiling and taking pictures was something that I dreaded."
I would like to thank Dr. Jeffrey Prager for making it possible for me to finally have the smile
that I have always wanted. Before starting Invisalign, I always had closed mouth smiles
since my teeth were very crooked. Smiling and taking pictures was something that I
dreaded. The older I got, the more it was bothering me until one day I decided to do
something about it. I researched Invisalign for months before I finally went in for a
consultation. Dr. Prager was very up-front about how Invisalign works and what I could
expect during treatment. I put my first aligners on my teeth on February 27, 2007. It took a
few weeks to get used to having them on my teeth, but now I am so used to them that I
sometimes forget that I have them on. My treatment is almost complete, in fact, my bottom
teeth are and I am wearing the retainer. During my treatment sessions, Dr. Prager would
give me the suction while he would work on my teeth, which I loved since it made me feel like
I was helping him out.
Dr. Prager, thank you so much for everything you have done for me and my teeth! Without
you, I may still be smiling without showing my teeth!
