The Risks of Dental Misalignment
What risks will an uneven smile pose for your oral health? In addition to the impact on the appearance of your teeth, this could make thorough brushing and flossing difficult, which increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. The pressure on your jaw joints could make the onset of TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding) more likely. To avoid poor oral health and to obtain results that make you feel confident, our team can provide orthodontic treatment., We will begin by examining your smile to assess the cause and extent of your misalignment, so we can then choose the most appropriate treatment option!
Traditional Braces
For people with more severe cases of dental misalignment, our team could offer a set of braces. We will connect a metal bracket to the front of your teeth and then connect a portion of a thin arch wire to them with a band. During periodic visits to our office, we will adjust tension in the wire to help shift the teeth into proper position. For most, optimal results will take about a year.
Invisalign® Aligners
With Invisalign®, we take a more cosmetic approach. Instead of metal backrest and wires, our team will create a series of clear and custom aligners, which fit over the teeth and help shift them into proper position. You simply wear a set daily for 20 to 22 hours, over a period of about two weeks. You then start wearing the next set in the series and continue the process until you obtain optimal results. Our team can offer this for adults. But we also have a Phase One interceptive option for young children known as Invisalign® first. For older kids, we have Invisalign® Teen. If you have any questions, give our team a call!
