Your child is just like you, whether you want to admit it or not. And well, just like you, they need to be able to brush each surface of every tooth in order to keep their smile safe. A toothbrush is only effective in areas it can reach, which unfortunately means that, if they struggle with their oral health maintenance, their alignment might be to blame. If they can’t scrub their enamel, bacterial buildup of plaque and tartar is likely going to start there.
With our orthodontic team at Riverside Dental Group, your child’s got an oral health resource. Our team makes it our business to provide excellent orthodontic care to the people of the Inland Empire. From traditional braces with ceramic brackets to nearly invisible clear aligner solutions, our office is built to help people just like your teen. Let’s talk about ways to improve their smile with affordable, effective options.
A straighter smile can help them brush better. Schedule a time to meet with the orthodontic team at Riverside Dental Group.
How Does Alignment Affect Oral Health?
A healthy smile depends on balance to stay safe, otherwise there can be problems. One of these issues is that overcrowded or overlapped teeth can be truly difficult to keep clean with regular brushing and flossing. A toothbrush is a brush, after all, so its bristles need to be able to scrub the surface to remove plaque. Well, when it struggles to do that, your child might have a tough time avoiding tooth decay and periodontal disease in those spots.
If you’ve got questions about how their oral health is affected by their alignment, bring it up at their next dental checkup. Their provider will be able to tell if there are areas that they struggle to maintain.
Exploring Their Orthodontic Options
When you want to know more about orthodontics for your teen, a consultation can give them (and you) some much-needed information. A trained orthodontist can tell you about concerns that they have and also let you know about different treatment possibilities. We’ve got a few of them, too. Our office offers a full range of orthodontic options, including traditional braces with ceramic brackets, nearly invisible clear aligner trays, and more.
