Crooked or misaligned teeth are prevalent in adults and children and can affect your self-confidence. While teeth straightening is an excellent way to boost self-esteem, it is also crucial for oral health. Teeth straightening will improve blood flow, which will help keep your gums healthy and make them easier to clean, meaning less chance of bacteria accumulation.
The main tools used to achieve this tooth movement are dental braces, dental aligners (Invisalign), and teeth retainers. At Coleman County Dental Center, our dentists will examine your teeth and recommend a treatment straightening option that works best for you. If you have chosen Invisalign, we will take X-rays and photos to create custom molds for your teeth. And if you choose braces, you will need an appointment to have your dental braces fitted. After your braces or Invisalign are removed, you may need a retainer to prevent your teeth from relapsing.
No matter which option you choose, we will explain proper oral hygiene and give you tips on how to brush, floss, and adjust to your teeth straightening treatment. Give us a call
today for more information. We proudly offer cosmetic dentistry services to help get your teeth straight!
