Orthodontics

GIVE US A CALL TODAY TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT.

What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of dental and facial irregularities. Orthodontic treatment involves the use of corrective appliances such as braces, retainers, and headgear to align the teeth and jaws in a more desirable position. The goal of orthodontic treatment is to create a healthy, attractive, and functional bite. Orthodontists use a variety of techniques to correct misaligned teeth and jaws, including the use of braces, which are the most common type of orthodontic appliance. Braces work by applying gentle pressure to the teeth and jaws to gradually move them into the desired position. Orthodontists may also use other appliances such as headgear, expanders, and removable retainers to help correct bite issues.

When should you come in?

It is recommended that children should see an orthodontist by age 7. Early orthodontic treatment can help guide the growth of the jaw and certain teeth, and can help prevent more serious problems from developing. If your child has any of the following issues, you should make an appointment to see an orthodontist: Protruding teeth Crowded teeth Misaligned teeth Teeth that dont meet properly An overbite or underbite Difficulty chewing or biting Speech impediments Jaw pain Teeth grinding Thumb sucking Mouth breathing Difficulty closing the lips Facial imbalance Teeth that are too small or too large Teeth that are discolored or misshapen Teeth that are missing or extra Teeth that are crooked or rotated Teeth that are not in the right position Teeth that are blocked out by the jaw Jaws that are not aligned properly Jaws that make it difficult to open or close the mouth It is important to note that even if your child does not have any of the issues listed above, it is still a good idea to have them evaluated by an orthodontist. This is because orthodontists can identify potential problems early and develop a treatment plan to prevent them from becoming more serious. In addition to children, adults can also benefit from orthodontic treatment. If you are an adult and you have any of the issues listed above, it is important to make an appointment to see an orthodontist. Orthodontists can help adults straighten their teeth, improve their bite, and correct any misalignment issues that may have developed over time. No matter what age you are, it is important to visit an orthodontist if you have any concerns about the alignment of your teeth or jaw. An orthodontist can diagnose the problem and create a treatment plan to help you achieve a healthy and beautiful smile.
