An Overview of Orthodontic Treatment
Many achieve a more beautiful, healthy smile through orthodontics, and having a general understanding is helpful when deciding if treatment is appropriate. Orthodontics is a form of dentistry that focuses primarily on improving the alignment of the jaw and teeth to provide cosmetic, oral health, and functional benefits.
Orthodontics is available at Colorado Precision Dentistry & Orthodontics in Highlands Ranch and the surrounding area. The process starts with a simple and easy consultation visit, during which we help the patient make an informed decision about the best orthodontic treatment for a better smile.
General Dentists Can Perform Orthodontics
As defined by MedLine Plus, Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that deals with abnormalities of the teeth and jaw. It is performed by dental professionals who have completed a four-year undergraduate degree, a dental school post-graduate program, and received the necessary training to become licensed. General dentists who offer orthodontics choose to focus on the alignment of jaw and teeth, although they may also provide other services as well.
Orthodontics Can Fix a Range of Issues
Anyone who wants to improve the appearance and health of their smile through better jaw and teeth and jaw alignment should consider the benefits of orthodontics. Several issues orthodontics commonly fixes include:
- Crooked Teeth. Patients who have teeth that do not align appropriately with surrounding teeth, causing a cosmetic or functional concern, may benefit from orthodontics.
- Spacing issues. Orthodontic treatment improves spacing between teeth. This includes issues such as overcrowding and gaps between teeth.
- Bite complications. Issues with bite include underbites, overbites, crossbites, and other jaw or teeth issues that do not allow for an ideal alignment while the mouth is closed.
The best way to determine if treatment is appropriate is to consult with us today to schedule a time for an initial consultation.
Achieve a Better Smile With Orthodontics
One of the more notable benefits of orthodontics is an improved appearance while smiling, which provides many patients with increased confidence each day. Additionally, orthodontics often helps with oral health as well by making it easier to access harder to reach areas of teeth. Many also find it easier to eat and talk through improved jaw and teeth alignment.
How to Keep Good Oral Health During Treatment
It is essential to practice good oral hygiene during treatment to reduce the risk of oral cavities, oral infections, stained teeth, and other oral health concerns. Good oral hygiene during orthodontics starts with a high-quality and consistent daily oral care routine. Your routine should include brushing daily, using mouthwash as directed by the dentist, flossing after each meal, and keeping retainers and other dental devices clean through proper cleaning and storage. It is also essential to visit the dentist regularly to check for signs of any oral health complications that may develop and to ensure there are no setbacks during the treatment process.
