Orthodontic treatment significantly improves oral health by aligning the teeth and making them easier to clean. Crowded or overlapping teeth can be hard to clean thoroughly, increasing the risk of cavities and gum disease. By straightening the teeth, orthodontics helps prevent these issues and promotes healthier gums and teeth.
A straight, beautiful smile can boost a teenager's self-esteem significantly. It can make them feel more confident in their social interactions, which is particularly important during the formative teen years. The positive impact of orthodontic treatment on a teen's appearance and self-confidence cannot be overstated.
Orthodontic treatment in the teen years can prevent future dental problems. Misaligned teeth and jaws can lead to uneven wear of tooth surfaces, difficulty in speaking and eating, and increased risk of injury to protruding teeth. By addressing these issues early, orthodontic treatment can save time, discomfort, and expense in the future.
The first step in the orthodontic process is an initial consultation. During this appointment, our dentists will examine your teeth, take X-rays, and discuss your orthodontic goals. This is your opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the treatment process.
Based on the initial consultation, our dentists will develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan will outline the type of orthodontic appliance to be used, the estimated duration of treatment, and any necessary preparatory work.
Once the orthodontic appliance is in place, regular adjustments will be necessary. These appointments allow our dentists to monitor progress and make any necessary changes to the appliance to ensure optimal results.
We can't wait to see you!
