(MUSIC) GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY AND
WELCOME TO THE BALANCING ACT.
WE ARE SO GLAD YOU JOINED US THIS
MORNING.
I'M JULIE MORAN.
AND I'M OLGA VILLAVERDE.
OK WITH ALL THE CELEBRATING WE'VE BEEN
DOING RIGHT...
THAT'S RIGHT.
LOTS TO CELEBRATE.
NOW MIGHT BE A GREAT TIME TO CONSIDER
STARTING A NEW...
UMMM HMMM I AGREE.
A NEW YOU.
AT LEAST WHEN IT COMES TO THE BODY.
WE'VE GOT SOME GREAT INFORMATION ON HOW TO
CLEANSE OUR SYSTEMS.
REMEMBER WHEN TOM CRUISE, GUYS DO YOU REMEMBER THIS, HE WORE
THOSE INVISIBLE BRACES?
WELL THEY'RE NOT JUST FOR
CELEBRITIES.
SO GET READY TO IMPROVE YOUR SMILE.
AND YOU'VE GOT A GREAT SMILE.
AWWWW.
AND SOME GOOD ADVICE WHEN IT COMES TO COLD SORES.
THE BALANCING ACT STARTS RIGHT NOW.
RIGHT NOW.
(MUSIC) THEY CAN BE EMBARRASSING AND
ALSO PAINFUL.
I'M TALKING ABOUT THE DREADED SKIN CARE ISSUE,
COLD SORES.
COLD SORE SEASON IN HERE BUT YOU HAVE THE POWER TO
FIGHT BACK.
THIS MORNING WE ARE GOIN TO DISCUSS A WAY TO HELP
YOU SAVE FACE.
JOINING US WITH SOME GREAT SOLUTIONS IS DR.
HEATHER WOLLERYLOYD DIRECTOR OF ETHNIC SKIN CARE AT THE
UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI.
GOOD MORNING.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE THIS MORNING.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
SO LET'S TALK AOBUT THIS BECAUSE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP I'D HEAR
COLD SORES YOU'RE GETTING AN INFECTION, YOU MIGHT BE GETTING
A COLD, LET'S CLEAR UP THE AIR HERE.
WHAT IS A COLD SORE AND WHAT CAUSES THEM TO APPEAR.
WELL COLD SORES ARE BLISTER LIKE SORES THAT CAN OCCUR ON THE LIP
OR FACE.
AND THEY'RE CAUSE BY A VIRUS CALLED THE HERPES SIMPLEX
VIRUS ONE.
AND UNLIKE THE VIRUSES THAT CAUSE COLDS OR FLUS
THAT VIRUS STAYS IN YOUR BODY FOR LIFE.
SO WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE ANY SYMPTOMS IT'S CALLED LATENT.
UMMMHMMMM.
BUT SOMETIMES IT BECOMES ACTIVE AND THAT'S WHEN YOU SEE THE COLD
SORE.
AND WHEN YOU HEAR THE WORD HERPES AGAIN, IT CAN BE AN
ALARMING WORD FOR SOME PEOPLE AND YET SOMETIMES YOU THINK TO
YOURSELF IT REALLY SHOULDN'T BE.
IT SHOULDN'T BE.
THERE'S REALLY NO REASON TO BE ALARMED.
IN FACT UP TO SEVENTY PERCENT OF ADULTS
IN THE UNITED STATES.
OHH WOW.
HAVE THE HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS.
AND OF THOSE 15 TO 40 PERCENT EXPERIENCE SYMPTOMS OR COLD
SORES.
AND WHO GETS COLD SORES?
SO IT CAN OCCUR IN ALL AGES BUT IT IS MORE COMMEN IN WOMEN AND
IT DOES INCREASE AS YOU GET OLDER THE RISK OF GETTING A COLD
SORE.
AND BASICALLY IT'S TRANSMITTED ONCE YOU HAVE DIRECT
CONTACT WITH THE HERPES LESION IN SOMEONE WHO HAS ACTIVE
INFECTION.
SO THAT'S HOW YOU GET THE COLD SORE VIRUS.
SO WHY IS IT MORE PREVALENT IN WOMEN?
WHY IS IT THAT WE (LAUGHTER)
IT'S ALWAYS WOMEN (LAUGHTER)
WE REALLY DON'T KNOW THAT ACTUALLY BUT IT IS MORE COMMEN
IN WOMEN.
WE DO KNOW THAT AND REALLY IT'S JUST A VERY COMMEN
THING.
AND I REALLY TRY TO EMPHASIZE TO MY PATIENTS IT'S
NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF...
RIGHT.
IT'S QUIT COMMON AND THE VAST MAJORITY OF ADULTS IN THE UNITED
STATES HAVE THE COLD SORE VIRUS.
SO WHAT TRIGGERS A COLD SORE?
DO WE KNOW?
YES, THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT TRIGGERS.
IT CAN BE TRIGGERED BY SUN LIGHT, IT CAN BE TRIGGERED
BY A COLD OR A FLU, UM EMOTIONAL STRESS...
UMMHMMM.
CAN IT BE SEASONAL ALSO CAUSE SOMETIMES I'VE HEARD THE
COLD WEATHER REALLY?
ABSOLUTELY, WE DO SEE IT MORE DURINTG THE WINTER MONTHS WHEN
WE HAVE MORE COLDS AND FLUS.
EVERYONE HAS THEIR DIFFERENT TRIGGERS AND FOR ME AS A
DERMATOLOGIST IT CAN ALSO BE TRIGGERED BY PROCEDURES SO IF
YOU'RE DOING A LASER PROCEDURE ON THE FACE OR EVEN ORAL SURGERY
CAN TRIGGER A COLD SORE.
AND OBVIOUSLY STRESS THAT'S LIKE NUMBER ONE.
DEFINITELY.
NUMBER ONE.
NOW, HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO GET A COLD SORE.
ARE THERE SYMPTOMS IS THERE
SOMETHING TO WATCH OUT FOR?
THERE ARE SYMPTOMS IN FACT MOST PEOPLE EXPERIENCE SOME TYPE OF
TINGLING, STINGING, BURNING, ITCHING AND SOME PEOPLE MIGHT
EXPERIENCE A LITTLE MILD PAIN.
SO THERE'S A PRODRUM, WE CALL THAT THE PRODRUM BEFORE THE COLD
SORE COMES OUT AND THAT'S THE BEST TIME TO START YOUR
TREATMENT.
AND THAT'S PROBABLY THE BEST TIME ALSO TO GO SEE A DOCTOR AND
I KNOW THIS FOR A FACT THAT MANY PEOPLE WHILE EITHER MAYBE PUT
SOME MAKEUP ON.
WOMEN OF COURSE...
YES.
AND A OR MAYBE SOME COLD PRESSES...
YES.
ICE.
DOES THAT WORK?
WELL THE COLD PRESS MIGHT CAUSE SOME TEMPORARY RELIEF BUT
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO SHORTEN THE DURATION OF YOUR COLD SORE.
SO IT'S MORE IMPORTANT I THINK TO
USE A PRESCRIPTION CREAM BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE YOU'LL SEE THE
RESULTS.
SO TELL ME ONE THAT YOU LIKE THAT WORKS FOR YOU.
WELL THE TREATMENT THAT I LOVE AND PATIENTS WITH COLD SORES IS
ACTUALLY DENAVIRE.
THIS IS ONE OF THE, THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS
LIKE.
AND DENAVIRE IS PENCICLIVRE ONE PERCENT CREAM
AND IT CAN BE APPLIED DURING THE PRODRUM PERIOD WHERE YOU'RE
HAVING THE TINGLING OR THE STINGING SENSATION PRIOR TO THE
COLD SORE.
AND IT CAN ALSO BE APPLIED DIRECTLY TO THE COLD
SORE AND IT'S BEEN PROVEN TO SHORTEN THE DURATION OF THE COLD
SORE AND SHORTENING THAT DURATION MAKES A BIG IMPACT ON
SOMEONES QUALITY OF LIFE.
NOW, I ALWAYS ASK IN TERMS OF SIDE EFFECTS.
ARE THERE ANY THAT ONE SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT?
YES, IN THE CLINICAL TRIALS THREE PERCENT OF PEOPLE WHO
RECEIVED THE DENAVIRE HAD LOCAL SIDE EFFECTS.
AND ACTUALLY FOUR PERCENT OF PEOPLE IN THE PLACEBO
GROUP HAD LOCAL SIDE EFFECTS.
REALLY?
YES AND THOSE LOCAL SIDE EFFECTS COULD BE SKIN SENSITIVITY, A
RASH OR CHANGE IN TASTE.
NOW IN TERMS OF COST ALSO, YOU KNOW ALOT OF PEOPLE SOMETIMES
SAY I'D LOVE TO GET IT BUT I CAN'T AFFORD IT.
HOW DOES THIS COMPARE?
WELL FOR ME THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE SOMETIMES
PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS CAN BE SO EXPENSIVE.
BUT DENAVIRE HAS A CO-PAY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM.
SO FOR ELIGIBLE PATIENTS THEY PAY
NO MORE THEN FIFTEEN DOLLARS.
OH MY GOSH SO WORTH IT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANK YOU.
DO APPRECIATE YOUR TIME DOCTOR.
THANK YOU.
COME BACK WITH SOMETHING FOR PIMPLES?
MAYBE NEXT TIME.
(LAUGHTER) THAT'S WHAT I NEED.
ALRIGHT REMEMBER TO TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR
TO SEE IF DENAVIRE MAY BE RIGHT FOR YOU OR FOR MORE INFORMATION
ON DENAVIRE AND HOW IT CAN HELP YOU MANAGE YOUR COLD SORES,
VISIT OUR WEBSITE THEBALANCINGACT.COM THAT'S
THEBALANCINGACT.COM.
WE'RE ALSO ON FACEBOOK.
(MUSIC) EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE ONE
CHANCES ARE YOU KNOW FOLKS WHO HAVE AND IT'S GAINING IN
POPULARITY.
AND FOR GOOD REASON.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AN INTESTINAL CLEANSE.
MANY SWEAR BY IT BUT SOME OF US ARE SIMPLY
UNIFORMED TO IT'S BENEFITS.
AND HERE TO CLEAR IT ALL UP AND THE
MYSTERY BEHIND IT AND EDUCATE US ON WHY CLEANSING CAN BE A VERY
VITAL PART OF OUR OVERALL HEALTH IS JEFF VAN HECKE NATIONAL SALES
MANAGER FOR A COMPANY CALLED YERBA PRIMA.
A CONSUMER COMPANY DEDICATED TO GREAT INTESTINAL
HEALTH.
SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU IN THE STUDIO.
YOU CAN EDUCATE ME AS WELL THIS MORNING.
THANK YOU JULIE.
PLEASURE TO BE HERE.
GREAT TO HAVE YOU.
ALRIGHT, JEFF LET'S START WITH THE BIG PICTURE
AND WHAT EXACTLY IS A CLEANSE AND WHAT OCCURS DURING A
CLEANSE?
WELL THE FACT IS OUR ENVIRONMENT HAS BECOME CONTAMINATED AS A
RESULT OF THE OVER PRODUCTION OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS.
THESE CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS CAN BE FOUND
IN EVERYTHING FROM OUR FOOD SUPPLY TO OUR WATER AND EVEN THE
AIR WE BREATHE.
TYPICALLY THERE UHHH THEY CAN BE FOUND AS
HERBICIDES, PESTICIDES, HEAVY METAL TOXINS LIKE MERCURY, EVEN
PLASTICZERS COMMONLY FOUND IN WATER BOTTLES AND CARPETING.
WOW, YEA.
ONCE IN THE SYSTEM, THESE CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS ARE TOXIC AND
THEY REAK HAVOC IN THE BODY.
SO IT'S VERY VERY DIFFICULT TO
REMOVE THEM.
WHOLE BODY CLEANSING IS REALLY THE MOST
EFFECTIVE WAY TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT AND IT'LL DO IT THROUGH ALL
SEVEN CHANNELS OF ILLUMINATION.
THE BOWELS, THE KIDNEYS, THE LUNGS, THE SKIN, THE LYMPHATIC
SYSTEM ALONG WITH THE BLOOD AND THE LIVER.
WOW, THAT'S INTENSE BUT AMAZING THAT IT CAN DO ALL THAT.
AND CAN YOU DO THIS RIGHT AT HOME?
YOU CAN DO IT IN THE COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE OF YOUR OWN HOME.
IT'S VERY GENTLE IT WON'T HAVE ANY HARMFUL OR UNWANTED SIDE
EFFECTS.
UMM IT'S A THIRTY DAY SUPPLY UHH VERY EASY TO USE AND
WE'RE NOT ASKING ANYONE TO UH DO IT MAKE AND DRASTIC CHANGES TO
THEIR LIFE STYLE.
JUST USE THE PRODUCT AND GO ABOUT YOUR DAILY
LIFE.
I KNOW YOU BROUGHT SOME PRODUCTS TO OUR KITCHEN.
THEY ARE SPECIFICALLY FORMULATED FOR
WOMEN AND TELL US WHAT WE'VE GOT HERE.
WE HAVE OUR WOMEN'S RENEW WHOLE BODY CLEANSE SYSTEM...
OK.
YERBA PRIMA IS THE ONLY COMPANY THAT MANUFACTURES A WHOLE BODY
CLEANSE SYSTEM FOR BOTH MALE AND FEMALE BODY TYPES.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO IS
THAT WE'VE ADD SUPPORT NUTRIENTS FOR THE MALE AND FEMALE BODY
TYPES...
OK.
THE WOMEN'S RENEW CONTAINS TRACE TREE BERRY AND DON QUI WHICH ARE
TWO VERY GOOD FEMALE TONIC HERBS.
WE'VE ALSO ADDED B VITAMINS FOR ENERGY.
IN ADDITION TO THAT, WE HAVE OUR HERBAL
GURAD FORMULA...
OKAY.
WHICH IS ACTUALLY ARE ANTI PARASITE FORMULA.
THIS HAS TRIFOLA, BLACK WALNUT HOLES,
CLOVES, AND GINGER AND IT WILL HELP TO AIDE THE BODY IN
REMOVING ANY PARASITES.
AND THEN FINALLY WE HAVE OUR FIBER
COMPONENT WHICH IS THE PRIMA CLEANSE FORMULA.
THIS HAS ALL FIVE DIFFERENT TYPES OF FIBER.
CELENIUM, MAGNESIUM, AND CALCIUM TO HELP STRENGTHEN AND REBUILD
THE LINING OF THE COLON.
FOS OR FRUCTAL OGLA SACORIDES.
WOW.
(LAUGHTER) TO FEED AND MULTIPLY THE GOOD
BACTERIA.
AND SOME OF OUR GREAT PAINS BENTENITE WHICH IS A VERY
POWERFUL DETOXIFIER AND IT WILL AID IN REMOVING HEAVY METAL
TOXINS, HERBICIDES AND PESTICIDES.
SO VERY COMPLETE.
VERY GENTLE THIRTY DAY SUPPLY.
AND WHY SHOULD WOMEN BE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF WHOLE BODY
CLEANSE THEY'RE USING?
ALOT OF CLEANSE SYSTEMS ON THE MARKET TODAY CONTAIN HARSH
STIMULANT LAXATIVE.
HMMM.
WHICH CAN CREATE TO WHAT WE REFER TO AS A LAXATIVE
DEPENDENCY WHICH ACTUALLY SHUTS THE BODYS ON ABILITY DOWN TO
EVACUATE OR ELIMINATE.
SO YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE VERY
CAREFUL AS FAR AS WHAT TYPE OF CLEANSE YOUR USING.
AND ALOT OF OTHERS ACTUALLY REQUIRE A STRICT
FASTING REGIMEN, WHICH CAN ALSO BE VERY UNSAFE.
SO YOU ALWAYS WANT TO USE A PRODUCT THAT'S
NATURAL, TRY AND TAKE A FIBER APPROACH WHEN YOU CAN AND USE IT
OVER A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME TO WORK NATURALLY WITH YOUR BODY.
GOOD ADVICE.
YOU'RE PRODUCT LITERATURE STATES THAT YERBA
PRIMA PIONEERED THE USE OF FIBER AND WHOLE BODY CLEANSING.
CAN YOU EXPLAIN THAT A LITTLE BIT?
YES WE A WE WERE ACTUALLY THE FIRST COMPANY IN THE NATURAL
FOOD INDUSTRY THIRTY FIVE YEARS AGO TO HAVE A WHOLE BODY
CLEANSE.
THERE WERE ALOT OF OTHER COMPANIES IN THE INDUSTRY
THAT HAD STAND ALONG HERBAL INGREDIENTS OR FIBER COMPONENTS,
BUT NONE WERE REALLY PUTTING IT ALL IN ONE KIT.
YEA.
ADDRESSING ALL AVENUES OF THE ELIMINATION CYCLE.
UMM WE ALSO WERE THE FIRST COMPANY TO LAUNCH
A FULL LINE OF DIETARY FIBER SUPPLEMENTS AND BLENDS
CONTAINING NO ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS, BINDERS, OR FILLERS.
WOW.
INSURING THAT OUR CUSTOMERS GO THE HIGHEST QUALITY, CLEANS
PRODUCT AVAILABLE.
YOU KNOW FIBER WE HEAR IS SO GREAT FOR WEIGHT LOSS AND AND
REALLY HOW MUCH WEIGHT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT WITH WOMEN AND
THIS PRODUCT AND USING THIS CLEANSE?
WELL IT IS IT'S TRUE.
FIBRE IS VERY GOOD AT AIDING IN WEIGHT
LOSS AND IT VARIES BY INDIVIDUAL.
BUT WHAT FIBRE DOES IS IT HELPS TO CREATE A FEELING
OF SATIETY SO YOU FEEL FULLER LONGER...
HHHMMMM...
IT ALSO HELPS TO PROMOTE GOOD DIGESTION AND HELPS TO FEED FOOD
TRANSIT TIMES.
SO IT'S VERY VERY EFFECTIVE FOR WEIGHT LOSS.
AND AGAIN IT VARIES BY INDIVIDUAL.
THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT FACTORS THAT PLAY A ROLE IN THAT
AND IT CAN BE UHH YOU KNOW PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, EATING
HABITS, A WOMEN'S BODY CHEMISTRY.
SURE.
BUT ONE THING FOR SURE IS YOU'RE DEFINITELY FIBRE AND CLEANSING
IS DEFINITELY GOOD FOR HELPING TO LOSE WEIGHT.
YOU'RE GONNA LOSE WEIGHT.
ABSOLUTELY.
(LAUGHTER) ONE FINAL QUESTION.
WHERE CAN OUR VIEWERS FIND THIS?
YOU CAN FIND OUR PRODUCTS AT ANY HEALTH FOODS STORE THRU OUT THE
COUNTRY AND ALOT OF THESE SPECIALTY GROCERY STORES THAT
HAVE HEALTH FOOD SETS.
OR YOU CAN FIND US ONLINE AT

WHAT BETTER TIME THEN NOW TO TALK ABOUT THE LATEST IN
CREATING BEAUTIFUL SMILES.
PLEASE WELCOME TO THE SHOW THIS MORNING DR.
MARGOT BRILLIANT, A TOP ORTHODONTIST AND HER
PATIENTS, FRANCINE MISHTISH AND AMANDA STUDNICK AND RIGHT BY HER
SIDE HER MOTHER STACEY.
LADIES GOOD MORNING.
GOOD MORNING.
GOOD MORNING (IN UNISON) THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
DOCTOR LET ME START WITH YOU.
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE LATEST IN TEETH
STRAIGHTENING.
WE NOW HAVE ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCES THAT HAVE NO WIRES,
BRACKETS OR BANDS.
INVISALINE WITH ITS' CUTTING EDGE
TECHNOLOGY MAKES A SERIES OF REMOVABLE TRAYS AT A VERY LIGHT
WEIGHT PLASTIC THAT MOVE TEETH VERY GENTLY OVER TIME.
AND I KNOW THERE'S INVISALINE AND INVISALINE TEEN.
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
THERE'S A FEW CLINICAL DIFFERENCES.
ONE BEING THAT INVISALINE TEEN YOU CAN ORDER A
REPLACEMENT ALIGNER IF YOU LOSE IT.
THERE'S ALSO A BLUE INDICATOR DOT ON THE ALIGNER SO
THE DOCTOR CAN SEE THAT THE PATIENT IS WEARING THE ALIGNER
AS PRESCRIBED.
BUT THE MOST FANTASTIC THING ABOUT INVISALINE
IS THAT IT REALLY WORKS ON COMPLEX TREATMENT PLANS OFTEN
PRESENT IN TEENS.
FRANCINE, LET ME BRING YOU IN NOW.
I KNOW YOU DECIDED TO GET BRACES AS AN ADULT.
WAS IT A TOUGH DECISION FOR YOU BECAUSE I
WOULD THINK THE OLDER YOU GET THE HARDER IT WOULD BE YOU KNOW
COMPLIANCE...I DON'T KNOW...ALOT OF THINGS RIGHT?
YEA WILL I SAW MY TEETH SHIFTING SO I KNEW UM SOMETHING NEEDED TO
BE DONE AND THE INVISALINE DECISION WAS SOME WHAT EASIER
BECAUSE OF THE ADVANTAGES THAT THEY PRESENT OVER BRACES.
I HAD BRACES WHEN I WAS A KID AND UM
THIS IS TOTALY DIFFERENT METHOD AND VERY ATTRACTIVE.
SO FAR YOU IT WAS A NO BRAINER.
ABSOLUTELY NO BRAINER.
BIG DIFFERENCE FOR YOU HUH?
ABSOLUTELY.
WELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DOING IT AND DOING
NOTHING.
TOUCHE.
WELL SAID.
(LAUGHTER) AMANDA, HOW BOUT YOU.
YOU ARE HOW OLD?
SEVENTEEN.
OKAY SO WAS IT TOUGH FOR YOU TO MAKE THAT DECISION AT YOUR AGE?
YOU KNOW IT'S A TOUGH YEAR I MEAN YOUR A SENIOR?
EXACTLY, YEA.
AND GOING INTO SENIOR YEAR I'M GOING TO HAVE
ALOT OF DANCES AND PICTURES TO TAKE...
AND BOYS ASKING YOU OUT.
EXACTLY.
SO HAVING THINGS IN MY MOUTH THAT I CAN TAKE OUT WHEN
EVER I WANT TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A CLEAR MOUTH FOR PICTURES IT WAS
A REALLY GREAT THING TO KNOW.
SO I'M GLAD THAT I WENT WITH
INVISALINE.
IT MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE FOR YOU AS WELL.
A HUGE DIFFERENCE.
AND YOUR GORGEOUS JUST LET ME TELL YOU.
YOU PROBABLY HAVE GUYS KNOCKING ON THE DOOR, RIGHT MOM?
(LAUGHTER) DOCTOR LET ME ASK YOU THIS.
SINCE INVISALINE CLEAR LINERS ARE REMOVABLE, I CAN SEE HOW
EASY IT IS TO MANAGE IT.
I CAN'T EVEN TELL SHE'S WEARING IT, DOES
IT MAKE IT EASIER FOR A TEENAGER TO BE MORE COMPLIANT.
WELL TEENAGERS A VERY COMPLIANT.
THEY ARE?
THEY ARE.
REALLY WE HAVE DATA THAT SHOWS THEY DO WEAR THEM 21
HOURS A DAY.
WHICH IS NECESSARY TO GET STRAIGHT TEETH.
AND THE OTHER THING IS THAT WE REALLY
DON'T SEE MANY PEOPLE ORDERING THE REPLACEMENT ALIGNER SO THEY
DON'T LOSE THEM AS OFTEN AS YOU THINK THEY WOULD.
AND I THINK I KNOW THE ANSWER TO THIS BUT WHAT WOULD MOTIVATE A
TEENAGER TO CHOOSE THIS AS OPPOSED TO LETS SAY THE METAL
BRACES.
WELL A VERY INTERESTING STUDY CAME OUT AND SAID INVISALINE
TEEN COMMISSIONED KELTEN RESEARCH TO POLL THREE THOUSAND
TEENS AND WE FOUND THAT KIDS THAT WERE IN METAL BRACES WERE
MUCH MORE EMBARRASSED VERSUS THE KIDS THAT WORE ALIGNERS, BUT
REALLY THE BEST NUMBER THAT CAME OUT OF THE STUDY SAID THAT 68
PERCENT OF ALL TEENS WEARING INVISALINE WERE LESS LIKELY TO
BE TEASED WHICH WAS A HUGE MOTIVATING FACTOR WITH BULLYING
TODAY.
THAT'S HUGE TO KNOW.
IN TERMS OF COST IS IT COMPARABLE?
IT IS.
INVISALINE COST ABOUT THE SAME AS TRADITIONAL BRACES.
THE NATIONAL AVERAGE RIGHT NOW IS
ABOUT $5,600 IT ALL DEPENDS OF COURSE ON THE TREATMENT PLAN AND
WHERE YOU LIVE.
THERE ARE WAYS TO SAVE SOME OUT OF POCKET
DOLLARS.
ONE BEING ORTHODONTIC INSURANCE IF IT COVERS
TRADITIONAL BRACES IT WILL COVER INVISALINE.
STACEY, LET ME BRING YOU IN.
AS A MOM DID YOU SEE SOME BENEFITS
FROM HER CHOICE?
YES, ABSOLUTELY, INVISALINE FIRST OF ALL DOESN'T HAVE THE
BREAKING BRACKETS AND WIRES THAT ARE COMING OUT.
SO WE'RE NOT RUSHING FOR EMERGENCIES, WHICH
IS HUGE WITH SCHEDULES AND A MOTHER.
TWO SHE CAN EAT ANY FOODS SHE WANTS.
SHE POPS THE LINERS OUT, SHE EATS AND THEN
SHE CAN BRUSH PROPERLY.
AND THREE FOR SURE JUST THE FACT
THAT SHE CAN TAKE THEM IN AND OUT FOR CONFIDENCE, IT
DEFINITELY IS A PLUS.
MAKESE A DIFFERENCE.
DR.
BRILLIANT, IS INVISALINE GOOD FOR JUST SMALL COSMETIC ISSUES
OR DOES IT HELP WITH COMPLEX ISSUES IN THE MOUTH?
IT HELPS ALOT WITH COMPLEX ISSUES.
ADVANCES IN INVISALINE'S PATENTED TECHNOLOGY HAS REALLY
MADE US ABLE TO TREAT COMPLEX ISSUES.
WHAT WOULD SUGGEST THE AGE IS THAT WE SHOULD TAKE OUR CHILDREN
TO VISIT AN ORTHODONTIST.
DEFINITELY BY THE AGE OF SEVEN.
WOW, MY KIDS ARE 10 AND 12 AND THEY HAVEN'T GONE.
YOU'RE LATE.
(LAUGHTER) SHAME ON ME.
OKAY I'M GOING TO END WITH MY TWO INVISALINE
PATIENTS.
LET ME START WITH YOU FRANCINE, JUST YOU KNOW THE
DIFFERENCE YOU'VE SEEN, HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT CHOOSING IT.
LIKE I SAID, I MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DOING NOTHING
OR DOING WHAT'S RIGHT UM EASY TO WEAR.
I WEAR THEM ALL THE TIME.
EASY TO SPEAK WITH UM NO PROBLEM.
I HAVEN'T LOST ANY.
AND UHH I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER
AGAIN.
EXCELLENT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
AND AMANDA, YOU.
YOUR THOUGHTS?
I THINK THAT INVISALINE IMPACTED ME IN SO MANY WAYS BECAUSE NOT
ONLY AM I STRAIGHTENING MY TEETH, BUT I ALSO GET TO REMOVE
THEM AND FOR ME BEING ON THE MORNING SHOW AT MY SCHOOL...
OHHH.
YEA.
REALLY.
YOU REPORT ON THE NEWS?
I DO.
AND WHAT HAS THAT DONE FOR YOU?
WHEN I GET TO TAKE THEM OUT I JUST I CAN HAVE A CLEAN SMILE
AND NO ON HAS TO KNOW THAT I'M TRYING TO STRAIGHTEN MY TEETH.
THANK YOU SO MUCH DR.
BRILLIANT.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU.
