WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Testimonials
This dentist is the best I've been to. All of the staff are very helpful and involved in your needs. It's nice to see people that take their job seriously. I came in for an X-ray and cleaning, and after a detailed checkup I decided to get treatment here as well. I had six cavities filled and a deep cleaning, which helped with my gum recession. The prices are affordable and if you need major work, they will work out a payment plan. I am satisfied and will keep recommending Smile Boutique and coming back to Dr. Borzoo. Thank you!
Vladislau P.★★★★★
The quality of care and service you will receive from the staff at Smile Boutique is priceless. Like any major procedure, the process of getting veneers was unknown to me. Upon reviewing different cosmetic dentists, I was convinced to proceed with Smile Boutique because of the reviews and quality of work they presented on their site; this was the best decision I made.
From the beginning, the receptionist team answered the majority of my questions and invited me offer for a free consultation.
Marilyn R.★★★★★
I had 4 wisdom teeth removed recently and it was a painless experience thanks to Smile Boutique. Thank you Dr. Fukui for your awesome work. Although a dentist trip is not a good time, they made it as effortless as possible for me. The surgery went smoothly and I was sedated the whole time. I recovered very quickly, much better then expected. My teeth don't hurt anymore, the crowding in my jaw is gone. No more discomfort or pain. I trust these doctors and will be coming back here in the future.

Clear Braces
For Adults
Today, an increasing number of adults are choosing to wear clear braces to straighten their teeth and correct malocclusions (bad bites).
Clear braces are a great alternative to metal braces. They are less noticeable than metal braces and are perfect for teens and adults who don’t want metal to mar their smiles.
Clear braces are the same size and shape as metal braces, except that they have tooth-colored or clear brackets that blend into teeth. Some even use tooth-colored wires to be even less noticeable.
Causes of
Teeth Misalignment
Poorly aligned teeth often cause problems speaking, biting and chewing. Most irregularities are genetic or occur as a result of developmental issues. Conversely, some irregularities are acquired or greatly exacerbated by certain habits and behaviors such as:
- Mouth breathing
- Thumb or finger sucking
- Prolonged pacifier use
- Poor oral hygiene
- Poor nutrition
How
Orthodontic Treatment Works
Orthodontic braces, clear and metal braces are predictable, versatile and incredibly successful at realigning the teeth. Braces work in the same way regardless of the age of the patient, but the treatment time is greatly reduced in patients who are still experiencing jaw growth and have not been affected by gum disease. In short, an adult can experience the same beautiful end results as a teenager, but treatment often takes longer.
Braces consist of bands, wires and/or brackets. Bands are fixed around the teeth or tooth and used as anchors for the appliance, while brackets are bonded to the front of the tooth. Arch wires are passed through the brackets and attached to the bands. Tightening the arch wire puts tension on the teeth, gradually moving them to their proper position. Braces are usually adjusted monthly to bring about the desired results, which may be achieved within a few months to a few years. Today’s braces are smaller, lighter and show far less metal than in the past.
We usually recommend braces to improve the patient’s:
- Crooked teeth
- Crowded teeth
- Uneven spacing
- Undesirable gaps between teeth
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Protruded teeth and/or jaw
- Lack of symmetry of the face
- Headaches
- TMJ symptoms
- Breathing problems
When children and teenagers are treated, we plan the final outcome to be one of great stability. Many of our patients undergo treatment without the need of extractions, providing a beautiful smile, versus one that is collapsed as seen in treatments done in past decades. This allows for their jaw to have great balance and avoids locking of their jaw. This, in the long run, avoids the occurrence of TMJ problems.
Neuromuscular Orthodontics
Orthodontics can do so much more than just straighten your teeth. It can help in the treatment of headaches and TMJ problems. Both of these are mainly due to bite irregularities and severe wear, causing many of the muscles of the head to overwork themselves. The consequence is the onset of headache symptoms. Many patients contact us as a last resort to address their problems. As the patient’s bite is reorganized into the right position, muscle strain is alleviated, therefore correcting the source of the headaches.
