What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a type of dentistry that aims to straighten and align teeth to give you a more attractive smile. It helps treat teeth that are misaligned, overlapping, twisted, crooked, or gapped. These tooth misalignments or bite problems may sound harmless to some people, but they can affect your dental health and cause more serious general health problems.

Orthodontics can significantly help improve your bite, which is the point where your upper and lower teeth meet. Speaking, eating, your smile’s attractiveness, and your facial features can all be improved by improving your bite. Additionally, it can reduce your risk of gum disease, cavities, and excessive wear and tear. Orthodontic procedures like traditional braces and clear aligners can help you get a better bite.

Customized Treatment Plans for Every Smile

At Blackhart Dentistry, we are proud to offer Invisalign® clear aligners and retainers to help with your bite alignment issues. Invisalign® is a brand of clear aligners that is an effective orthodontic therapy for mild to moderate cases of bite problems. These are a series of clear, custom-made plastic trays worn on your teeth like mouthguards.

You wear each tray for one to two weeks, before moving on to the next one in the set. The clear aligners will gradually shift your teeth into their correct positions. Invisalign® clear aligners are becoming more and more common popular alternatives to traditional braces because they are more comfortable to wear and virtually invisible.

After your clear aligner treatment and you’ve achieved the ideal bite alignment, you will wear retainers to “retain” your straighter, new smile. When you choose to have an orthodontic treatment at our office, Dr. Blackhart will create a customized treatment plan for you, whether you have an overbite, crossbite, gaps between teeth, or overcrowding issues.
