Orthodontics: Orthodontic care not only straightens teeth, but puts them into a more harmonious relationship with each other. This allows for easier brushing and flossing (helping prevent cavities and periodontal disease), and easier mastication. Better speech, appearance, and self-esteem follow.

Orthodontic Care: Whether braces, clear Aligners, removable appliances, or other treatment modalities, treatment can straighten teeth, change jaw configuration in children, improve occlusion, improve stability, facilitate oral hygiene, improve self image, etc. see a qualified Orthodontic Specialist for (usually free) initial examination and discussion of your malocclusion and treatment options.
