Invisalign is only indicated for certain Orthodontic problems, which means it can only work for certain cases that aren't that severe. It is NOT true that using Invisalign means no extracted teeth, it depends on how crowded your teeth are.

As for Pg Dental doing braces, their Dentist there that does braces is not a proper Orthodontist. I suggest anyone going to Pg Dental for braces ask the Dentist there if he has a Masters Degree in Orthodontics. The answer is NO. He has a 'certificate', which means he went to a few weekend classes to learn how to do braces. NO exam, NO practice on real patients. If you go to any general dentist for Orthodontic care, you are taking your chances. Ask if they are an 'Orthodontist' and do they have a Masters Degree.

A true Orthodontist has a masters degree (which takes 3 extra years at a University). A few doors down from Pg Dental is Prestige Orthodontic (Braces) Clinic. Dr. Chay is a proper Orthodontist, and does self-ligating (Damon) braces and ceramic brackets (invisible braces). You can find Prestige Orthodontics here:
