Orthodontics in Dartmouth MA
Here at Dental Studio in Dartmouth, MA we proudly offer orthodontic treatment in the form of clear aligners to help you achieve a straighter, more attractive smile.
What is Orthodontics?
The goal of orthodontics is to straighten and align your teeth. Orthodontics can help if your teeth are twisted, overlapped, crooked, or gapped. Clear aligners like Invisalign, lingual braces, and traditional braces are common orthodontic treatments.
Your dental health is greatly influenced by how your top and bottom teeth come together, commonly referred to as your bite. Improving your bite can not only enhance the appearance of your smile and facial features but it can improve speech, and chewing, while also reducing your your risk of cavities, gum disease, and excessive wear and tear.
Who Needs Orthodontic Treatments?
Orthodontics benefits almost everyone. However, some patients require more care than others. A common reason for seeking orthodontic treatment is to improve one’s smile. In addition to its cosmetic benefits, orthodontics also improves chewing function and oral health.
You might need an Orthodontic treatment if you have teeth alignment problems including:
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Overcrowding
- Overlapping
- Crooked
Common Orthodontic Treatments
At Dental Studio, below are the common orthodontic treatments that we offer to patients:
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are popular alternatives to traditional braces. These are a series of translucent, custom aligner trays to straighten the teeth instead of brackets and wires. Before replacing them with the following set in the series, you wear each set of trays for one to two weeks. The clear aligners gradually move your teeth into their right positions.
One of the more well-known brands of clear aligners is Invisalign® which we proudly offer to our patients.
Retainers
If you wear clear aligners, you will be required to wear a retainer after your orthodontic treatment. A retainer is a specially designed mouthpiece that prevents your teeth from moving out of place. Our dentist, Dr. Khalife, will determine how often you’ll need to wear your retainer to keep the benefits of treatment intact.
