Patient Testimonials

The following reviews are actual testimonials from patients of StarBrite Dental in Rockville, Maryland.

“I have been going to see Dr. Seifi at StarBrite Dental for years. She has helped me through numerous dental issues, and of course I love CJ for the cleanings- the best in the world.

But my service really began to shine when I was signed up for Invisalign. Initially it was done as my front teeth were chipping and I felt like I couldn’t smile anymore.

In fact I’m in Dental Marketing and I deal with a lot of dentists daily and I had gotten so self-conscious of it that I felt I had to cover my teeth when I talked it. It wasn’t even that I was neglectful of my teeth, I was just busy.

So on a late evening my schedule had unexpectedly freed up and I was able to call in and schedule for a last minute appointment that same night to get the chipped teeth fixed. At that appointment I was told about Invisalign and how it could help avoid future chipping and also possibly help with some TMJ issues I was having. I was found to be an ideal candidate and I started that same night.

That was over 10 months ago, and now I’m at the end of my treatment and doing an adjustment for the final step. It’s going well cosmetically, and my teeth are very straight and no longer chip. I smile confidently and big!

But there was a very unexpected health benefit that happened too. I have for some time suffered from jaw/TMJ spasms, the jaw would shudder out of control for 20-60 seconds at a go. I have done Chiro adjustments, vitamins, etc. and though it has all helped, the issue has continued. This was actually a major part of why I wanted to do Invisalign. And what I got out of it was so much more than expected! The TMJ issue is gone. No more spasms, or head problems connected with my jaw. I feel great and smile great and feel I am really taking care of my oral health, as not only am I in Invisalign but I’m doing my regular hygiene appointments as well. It just made it real to me how important my teeth were, and now I’m taking care of them and feel great about it.

Another convenient thing about the service was I work long hours during the week, so having weekend and evening hours is great for me as that’s when I can do most of my appointments for Invisalign. All said, I rate StarBrite Dental and Dr. Seifi as one of the best!” -H.H.

“I started Invisalign initially as I had teeth that were chipping due to how crowded my teeth were and the way my bite came together. Every time I came for a cleaning, I was shown how my lower right tooth specifically was cracking more and more from the stress, and that meant I would end up needing a crown.

I also had several other things going on with my teeth/jaw- these were things I hadn’t put together as having anything to do with my teeth crowding or my bite. I was seeing the hygienist every 3 months for cleanings as I had signs of gum disease developing. I would grind my teeth at night and wake up with jaw aches. I would actually wake my husband up and he used to tell me all the time I “chomp my teeth in my sleep.” I used to get migraine headaches regularly – sometimes every couple weeks. I used to get jaw tightness and pains and every so often had troubles actually opening my mouth without getting severe pain.

My Invisalign process took me roughly 1 ½ years. About a year into it, our hygienist put me on regular 6 month cleanings and told me my gum pockets were now 1’s and 2’s (in regular terms – that means my gums are now perfect and healthy and I am NOT going to need any treatment for gum issues).

I also realized recently that it has been over a YEAR since I have had any migraine headaches. A major plus that I was not expecting.

My jaw pains and tightness ceased almost immediately and I have not had any TMJ issues since starting Invisalign.

And last– the results are just awesome. When the staff took my pictures today to show the before and after shots I was amazed. Along with all the above health aspect benefits, my smile actually looks amazing!

Thank you Doctor Seifi! I see all the miracles you produce every day and am so glad I have had the benefit of being one of them.” - K.
