What could be the reasons for me needing orthodontic treatment?

If your teeth are misaligned, overlapping, or crooked, orthodontic treatment may be necessary to improve their alignment and appearance. This treatment can also address issues such as crowded jaws and correct tooth alignment. An overbite, where the upper front teeth excessively overlap the lower front teeth, can cause jaw discomfort, speech problems, and potential tooth damage. Fortunately, orthodontic treatment can resolve this issue. Furthermore, orthodontic treatment can address functional problems like difficulty chewing or speech issues resulting from an improper bite or misaligned teeth.

Orthodontic Aligners: Efficient, Safe, and Hygienic Teeth Straightening

Orthodontic aligners offer a fantastic alternative to traditional braces for teeth straightening. These clear aligners have been proven effective for millions of patients. It's important to consider the advantages and disadvantages. One benefit is the reduced risk of tooth damage thanks to their precise movements. They also save time by requiring fewer orthodontist appointments, as multiple trays can be provided at once. Moreover, they support better oral hygiene since they can be easily removed for thorough brushing and flossing. These aligners can also serve as whitening trays and a night guard, offering additional protection for your teeth during and after treatment.

Traditional braces

Traditional braces are an effective option for gradually straightening teeth over a period of approximately 2 years. The duration of treatment may vary depending on the individual case. It is advisable for children to undergo an orthodontic assessment once their permanent incisors have erupted, typically between the ages of 7-9. Early intervention with braces can enhance alignment, guide emerging teeth, and capitalize on the child's growth and development.
