Orthodontics is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on aligning the teeth and jaws, promoting not only an attractive smile but also a healthy, well-functioning bite. At our dental office, we offer a variety of orthodontic treatments to help correct issues such as misaligned, crowded or widely spaced teeth. Whether you are seeking a solution for yourself or for a family member, our dentists and team will work with you to ensure that your treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs.
When teeth are misaligned, several common issues can arise, including crowding, gaps and bite misalignment. An improper bite can lead to further problems, such as overbites, underbites, crossbites or open bites, each of which may affect your ability to chew, speak and maintain good oral hygiene. Left untreated, these issues can increase your risk of developing conditions like tooth decay, gum disease and jaw pain.
Today’s orthodontic treatments have evolved, offering more comfortable, discreet and efficient options than ever before. We provide a range of choices to meet our patients’ preferences and lifestyles, including traditional metal braces, clear aligners and other advanced orthodontic devices. Our team is skilled in assessing which treatment best suits your individual circumstances, whether you need mild adjustments or more extensive realignment.
Orthodontics does more than just enhance the appearance of your smile — it contributes to overall oral health by properly positioning teeth, making them easier to clean and reducing wear and tear from misalignment. Straight teeth are less prone to plaque buildup, which helps to prevent cavities and gum issues. Furthermore, properly aligned teeth reduce strain on the jaw, which can alleviate tension headaches and jaw discomfort that often accompany bite problems.
We understand that orthodontic treatment is a commitment, and our team is here to support you every step of the way, from initial consultation through to your final results. Orthodontics is an investment in your long-term health and confidence, and our goal is to make your experience as smooth and rewarding as possible.
To learn more about our orthodontic services and discover which options are best for you, we invite you to contact our office today. Let us help you achieve the smile you have always wanted — healthy, functional and beautifully aligned.
FAQ
What age is best to start orthodontic treatment?
Orthodontic treatment can begin at various ages, depending on individual needs. While some orthodontic issues are best addressed in children or teenagers, adults can benefit significantly from treatment too. For children, an initial evaluation is typically recommended around age 7, as this is when permanent teeth start to emerge. Early assessment allows for timely intervention, but many cases do not require treatment until the teenage years or adulthood.
How do I know if I need orthodontic treatment?
Signs that you may benefit from orthodontic treatment include difficulty biting or chewing, noticeable crowding, spacing or shifting teeth and jaw discomfort. If you have an overbite, underbite or other bite misalignment, you may also experience uneven wear on your teeth. Regular dental checkups can identify these issues, and our team can provide a thorough orthodontic assessment to determine the best course of action for your needs.
Are there different types of braces available?
Yes, we offer a variety of orthodontic options to suit diverse preferences and lifestyles. Traditional metal braces are effective and reliable, while clear ceramic braces provide a more discreet alternative. We also offer clear aligners, which are popular for their nearly invisible appearance and removability. Each option has unique benefits, and our dentists can help you select the one that aligns best with your treatment goals.
How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?
The duration of orthodontic treatment varies based on individual needs and the type of correction required. While mild adjustments may take less than a year, comprehensive realignment can span from 18 to 24 months, and sometimes longer. Following your personalized treatment plan and maintaining regular visits can help ensure optimal results within the estimated timeframe. Our team will keep you updated on your progress at every stage.
