Orthodontic Consultation & Braces
Orthodontic consultation is the first step in the process of correcting dental and facial irregularities, such as crooked teeth, overbites, underbites, and misalignments. During an orthodontic consultation, the dentist or orthodontist assesses your teeth, jaws, and bite to determine if braces or other orthodontic treatments are necessary. Braces are the most common form of orthodontic treatment, consisting of brackets, wires, and bands that gradually shift your teeth into better alignment over time.
Benefits
Improves Tooth Alignment: Braces help align crooked or misaligned teeth, improving both function and appearance.
Enhances Smile Aesthetics: Braces work to create a more uniform and attractive smile by straightening teeth and correcting bite issues.
Boosts Self-Confidence: With a straighter smile, many patients feel more confident in their appearance, boosting self-esteem.
Prevents Future Dental Problems: Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of gum disease, tooth decay, and even jaw problems in the future.
Improves Bite Function: Correcting bite issues can help prevent difficulties with chewing, speaking, and even jaw pain.
Long-Term Results: Braces offer lasting results, giving patients a smile that remains straight and functional even after treatment is complete.
