Orthodontics: Is It for You?
Dr Edward Kosy – Orthodontist Newcastle
Many people choose orthodontic treatment because it will make their smile look better. At ABC Orthodontics, we care about the health of your teeth and bite as much as the beauty of your smile. We believe in a holistic approach, resulting in both optimum function and appearance. Orthodontic treatment aligns the teeth and jaws to improve your oral health and the cosmetic appearance of your teeth and face. Braces and other such appliances are what we employ to achieve this goal. Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain. This can result in tooth decay, gum disease, and even tooth loss. Alignment problems can contribute to the abnormal wear of a tooth’s surface, inefficient chewing function, excessive stress on gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth, or misalignment of the jaw joints. These can lead to chronic headaches and face or neck pain. Treatment can help prevent these dental problems. Of course, the most obvious benefit of orthodontic treatment is an improved appearance. No matter what your age, you’ll feel more attractive and confident with an aligned, beautiful smile.
Removable appliances
Simple treatment may be carried out with the aid of a removable appliance (a plate that can be taken out to be cleaned). It has delicate wires and springs attached, which move the teeth using gentle pressure.
Invisalign
Invisalign is another excellent choice if you want a nearly invisible solution. In addition, Invisalign and Invisalign Teen use removable aligners.
