What Is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry specializing in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of jaw, face, and bite irregularities. These irregularities are called malocclusions — a technical term for teeth that don't fit together correctly. Malocclusions affect not only your teeth but also the appearance of your face.

Most malocclusions are inherited, but some develop from habits such as thumb sucking and tongue thrusting. The spacing left from an extracted adult tooth or the early loss of a baby tooth can also contribute to bite problems.


Why Choose Orthodontic Treatment?

Recent years have brought many changes to dentistry. Patients today experience fewer cavities and missing teeth thanks to fluoride use and preventative care. This growing awareness of oral health has fueled interest in orthodontics — not only as a medical necessity but for cosmetic reasons as well.

Whether you need traditional braces or a custom removable appliance, orthodontics can help you achieve the healthy, straight, beautiful smile you've been waiting for.


Who Can Benefit?

Orthodontic treatment isn't just for children and teens. Adults are increasingly seeking orthodontic care to correct long-standing bite issues, improve their smile, and boost their confidence. If you have crowded teeth, gaps, an overbite, underbite, or crossbite, orthodontics may be right for you.
