Orthodontics
Do you wish you had straighter teeth? Has crowding continued to get worse as you’ve gotten older? Or do you wish you could smile without any gaps? Why wish for it when you can do something about it!
Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that corrects teeth and jaws that are positioned improperly. Crooked teeth(teeth that do not fit together correctly are harder to keep clean and are at risk of being lost early due to tooth decay and periodontal disease, and can cause extra stress on the chewing muscles that can lead to headaches, and neck, shoulder and jaw pain. Teeth that are crooked or not in the right place can also have a major impact on your confidence to smile and speak.
The benefits of orthodontic treatment include a healthier mouth, a more pleasing appearance, and teeth that are more likely to last a lifetime.
Many different types of appliances, both fixed and removable, are used to help move teeth, retrain muscles and affect the growth of the jaws. These appliances work by placing gentle pressure on the teeth and jaws. The severity of your problem will be determined by our orthodontist and the best and most effective approach will be applied.
How do you know if you need an orthodontist?
Only your dentist or orthodontist can determine whether you can benefit from orthodontics. Based on diagnostic tools that include a full medical and dental health history, a clinical exam, plaster models of your teeth, and special X-rays and photographs, an orthodontist or dentist can decide whether orthodontics are recommended, and develop a treatment plan that’s right for you.
If you have any of the following. you may be a candidate for orthodontic treatment:
- Overbite, sometimes called “buck”.
- Underbite – A “bulldog” appearance where the lower teeth are too far.
- Crossbite- When the upper teeth do not come down slightly in front of the lower teeth.
- Open bite- Space between the biting surfaces of the front and/or side.
- Misplaced midline- When the center of your upper front teeth does not line up with center of your lower front teeth.
- Spacing- Gaps, or spaces, between the teeth.
- Crowding- When there are too many teeth to accommodate in your.
