About

Dr. Jessica Chung-Levy practices Orthodontics in Fort Lee, NJ. She is an Invisalign provider with the elite status of Platinum+ with over 1000 Invisalign adult, teen and child patients. She also provides comprehensive orthodontic treatment involving metal wires that are inserted into orthodontic brackets, which can be made from stainless steel or a more aesthetic ceramic material. The wires interact with the brackets to move teeth into desired positions.

  • Is it normal to leave Invisalign in all the time?

    Absolutely. In fact, the more time the aligners are on, the more time the teeth are effectively being straightened and thus the sooner you will complete your treatment. READ MORE

  • Should my teeth hurt after wearing a nightguard?

    If it is a single tooth and a few teeth in one region, that would indicate that there is more pressure placed on these teeth as compared to the rest. The mouthguard should be adjusted to distribute or even out pressure throughout all the teeth. Additionally, the teeth should be evaluated to determine if there may be another underlying reason for hurting that may not be related to the mouthguard. READ MORE

  • Can you get braces if you have a missing tooth?

    Yes, you absolutely can get orthodontic treatment when you have a missing tooth. In fact, many times, the orthodontic treatment will help place all the teeth into a healthier or more stable position. READ MORE

  • Is removing teeth necessary for braces?

    Hello. This is a great question. The decision to extract teeth or not depends on many variables. To give you just a few criteria, it may depend on the degree of crowding, the position of the teeth within the dental arch and also your lip posture and facial profile. Hope this helps. READ MORE

  • Can you close a gap without braces?

    Hello. Depending on the size of the gap and your overall bite, it may be possible to close your gap with clear aligners, such as Invisalign. READ MORE
