Golden Grove Orthodontics: Crooked Teeth

Crooked Teeth

People go miles and do great things all in the name of looking good - surgeries, facials etc. Can you imagine having to live with a tight-lipped smile? Oh yeah, so many people today are living with this all because of crooked teeth. It's actually a harsh reality to live with. However, if you're living with this, your solution is an appointment away with a dentist and an orthodontist. Technically, today's technology makes it possible to straighten your teeth at reasonable cost.

To get your smile back, the most obvious and common choice is the use of braces which force the teeth to shift into the right place by putting pressure on them. Braces are made of either ceramics, metal or even plastic. It's however required to get them straightened every month so that they can be effective. If you prefer to have less noticeable braces, ceramic braces would do justice.

Another option is the use of a retainer for a few months after removing the braces. It prevents teeth from shifting back to the former position. If there is no room for the straightened teeth, the orthodontist may see it necessary to extract teeth to create space. However, if you don't prefer braces, you can opt for the removable aligner which squeezes teeth forcing them to get into their correct position. It's quite expensive and suitable for mild cases of crooked teeth. [article source: to read the full content of this article, click here]
