Some people do everything correctly as far as their oral health is concerned. They regularly visit the dentist, practice a proper home oral hygiene routine, and have healthy smiles. However, these people may still feel dissatisfied due to having misaligned or crooked teeth. Crooked teeth may cause dental health problems such as gum disease and tooth decay. Bacteria and food particles can become stuck in places where there are crowded teeth, making it challenging to remove them, even with thorough flossing and brushing.
At Washington Dental, we transform imperfect smiles into beautiful smiles by offering orthodontic dental services to correct crooked, irregular, protruding, spaced, misaligned, and crowded teeth. We also remedy malocclusions (overbites, crossbites, open bites, and underbites).
We use various orthodontic appliances such as braces, clear aligners, retainers, palate expanders, removable or fixed space maintainers, jaw surgery, headgear, TMJ splints, and other specialized appliances to harness the body's natural capability to remodel its tissue. This is achieved by the devices exerting force on the teeth to jump-start the dental process of gradually and gently reshaping the jawbone to shift the teeth into their proper position. If your teeth are correctly aligned, it will be easier to speak, eat, and brush or floss them. Do not hesitate to call us to learn how we can help you with orthodontic services.
