Orthodontics
You may need orthodontic treatment if your teeth are crooked, crowded or misaligned.
What are Orthodontics?
Orthodontic treatment is essential in correcting the look and feel of your smile. If your teeth are crowded, crooked or if you have an underbite or overbite, you can benefit from treatment. Patients of all ages can benefit from orthodontic work if they are unhappy with their smiles. In fact, it’s not uncommon for adults to need re-treatment later in life because they never maintained their results from previous treatment.
Why are Orthodontics needed?
You may need orthodontic treatment if your teeth are crooked, crowded or misaligned. Likewise, treatment may be necessary if you have an overbite or underbite. Treatment is specific to each individual patient. Some patients will need to wear braces for only a few months while others benefit from a few years worth of orthodontics.
