While you are probably well aware of the aesthetic element of misalignment, did you know that the spacing of your teeth affect maintenance, too? A toothbrush is a brush, just like any other, which means that it needs to be able to reach the surface to be effective. Well, when teeth crowd or overlap, they can create areas that are downright difficult to keep clean with regular brushing and flossing.
Here at Riverside Dental Group, we offer orthodontic opportunities. Our office is built to help people just like you find their way to a stronger, straighter smile, and we have advanced ways of getting there. From traditional braces with ceramic brackets to nearly invisible aligners from Invisalign®, our team is ready to help you reach a safer set of teeth.
Overlapping or crowded teeth can be really tough to keep clean. Find out more about orthodontic treatment from Riverside Dental Group.
Misalignment Can Contribute To Tooth Decay And Periodontal Disease
When your toothbrush can’t reach a spot, it can’t remove plaque and tartar. That is the honest truth, and it means that in areas where teeth crowd, it can be tough to keep things as clean as they need to be. But leaving behind bacterial buildup puts you at real risk of developing periodontal disease or tooth decay. So, when you meet with your dentist for your next biannual exam, ask if your alignment is causing you issues.
If so, then you are ready to talk to a qualified orthodontist in your area. We can perform an orthodontic evaluation to determine if orthodontic treatment is needed to help you see your best smile. Let’s talk about your smile needs to develop a plan.
Invisalign® Aligners Offer A More Private Orthodontic Option
It is important to find the oral health care that you need. But sometimes, people avoid talking to their dentist about alignment because they would rather avoid braces. We totally understand that mentality, and it is why we offer a different path through Invisalign® clear aligners.
Invisalign® uses the same trusted orthodontic principles as braces, but it does it in a different way. With this innovative treatment solution, patients receive a custom set of aligner trays. By wearing these consistently through the day, they can shift their smile close to their goals.
