School is out and summer is
here. It’s the perfect time for you and your family to visit Creekside Park
Family and Cosmetic Dentistry. The husband-and-wife team of
Dr. Christopher Anton and Dr. Angela Anton are excited to catch up with
established patients and thrilled to welcome new ones to their rapidly
growing practice. Located in Creekside Park Village Green in The Woodlands,
the team is diligently preparing for their upcoming “National Align Your
Teeth Day” event featuring Invisalign.

Exciting
Invisalign Promotional Event

The entire day of August 11 will be devoted
solely to Invisalign consultations at Creekside Park Family and Cosmetic
Dentistry for interested patients aiming to establish proper teeth alignment
as their basis for optimal oral health. Appointments will include
consultations, photos, and digital before and simulated after images to
determine if the patient is a good candidate for treatment. Patients choosing
to move forward with treatment will also receive an exam and radiographs to
check for other dental health needs that could also require
attention.

Imagine how a new and improved smile could
boost your self-esteem and improve your overall confidence. If you’re curious
to learn more, Creekside Park’s promotional event is the opportune time.
“You’ll have our undivided attention since only Invisalign appointments will
be scheduled that day,” Dr. Angela Anton said. Fun prize drawings will be
happening, and it will be a very comfortable atmosphere for everyone. “We
encourage anyone who is interested in discovering how Invisalign can improve
their smile to reserve an appointment for
August 11th, but if another day works better for your schedule
we are always available.”

What Can
Invisalign Do for Me?

There is a popular misconception that having
poorly aligned teeth is purely a cosmetic issue and many patients are unaware
of underlying problems that can result. The two most important reasons to
straighten teeth are to avoid progressive tooth wear/damage from teeth not
biting together correctly, and to decrease the likelihood of future gum
disease due to an inability to properly clean between teeth. As Dr.
Christopher Anton states, “The problems we fix every day – broken teeth,
cavities, gum disease – are avoidable if patients’ teeth were aligned
properly. It’s the number one service we can provide our patients that
prevents future dental problems. The best part is they get a gorgeous smile
in the process.”

Both doctors have undergone extensive
Invisalign training. Both recently earned their Fellowship award in the
American Academy of Clear Aligners – an accomplishment very few doctors
throughout North America have achieved to date, according to Dr. Christopher
Anton. They’ve also been selected to serve on the AACA Board of
Directors.

Safe,
Accurate Imaging with the iTero Scanner

The state-of-the-art iTero scanner emits zero
radiation and delivers an exact digital image of your teeth. It is a welcome
alternative to traditional impressions and patients appreciate scans being
quick and comfortable. They also love being able to visualize their detailed
images while the doctor or hygienist explains their current oral health.
Advanced technology allows the iTero scanner to reveal if and where teeth are
wearing, gum recession, and crooked, crowded areas. It can also simulate what
your smile could look like after Invisalign treatment is
completed.

“We perform a baseline scan on all of our
patients, followed by an updated scan every year to monitor for changes,” Dr.
Angela Anton explained. Ask the doctors to show you how your smile could be
improved by using the iTero Invisalign Outcome Simulator.

Additional
Services and Treatment Options

Routine
exams and cleanings, implant restorations, same-day crowns, dentures, bridges,
teeth whitening, and restorative fillings are all examples of
other specialized options both doctors can provide. Using CEREC technology,
crowns are designed and created in the office, allowing them to be completed
in a single visit.

Building
Lasting Relationships

While some dental practices focus on quantity
of patients versus quality of dental care, Creekside Park’s objective is to
build solid, trustworthy relationships with patients while delivering consistency
and excellence. “Consistency helps build healthy relationships,” Dr.
Christopher Anton said. “Our patients like the fact we are a husband-and-wife
team in a family-oriented practice. We’ve been established here in The
Woodlands since 2015 and will be here for the long haul, taking care of
people and making them feel comfortable.”

Dr.
Christopher Anton graduated with a Bachelor’s degree from Texas
A&M University in 1997 and obtained his dental degree from The
University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston Dental Branch in 2002.
He earned his Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry in 2020. He’s a
huge Aggie football fan, and enjoys spending leisure time with his wife and
their children.

Dr. Angela Anton attended college at Ball
State University in Muncie, Indiana, before earning her dental degree at The
University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston Dental Branch in 2000.
She completed a one-year General Practice Residency in Houston in 2001 and
earned her Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry in 2007. A true
animal lover, she enjoys time with her pets and her family.

The two doctors met in 1998 while in dental
school. They both admit working together is very convenient and provides
flexibility, especially when it comes to parenting their two girls, ages 14
and 17. Another member of the Anton family puts in hours at the family
practice. Brinkley, their two-year-old Bernedoodle, visits often, bringing
smiles and enjoyment to everyone.
