Introduction to Orthodontics

At Smiles Restored, we specialize in orthodontics, a branch of dentistry that focuses on correcting teeth and jaw misalignment. Improperly positioned teeth can be harder to clean, increasing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. They can also cause additional strain on the jaw muscles, leading to discomfort and issues like headaches, TMJ, and pain in the neck, shoulders, or back. Orthodontic treatment not only enhances the appearance of your smile but also contributes to better long-term oral health and teeth that are more likely to last a lifetime.

Clear Aligners

Our practice exclusively offers clear aligners, a discreet, comfortable, and removable solution for patients seeking minor to moderate dental corrections. Clear aligners are customized to your specific needs, providing a nearly invisible option that is easy to maintain and fits seamlessly into your daily life—without the visibility or discomfort of metal braces.

The Orthodontic Treatment Process

Our clear aligner treatment process is designed to help you achieve a straight and healthy smile:

  • Initial Consultation: Our orthodontist will assess your teeth and discuss your treatment goals.
  • Diagnostics: We take X-rays, photos, and digital impressions to create a personalized treatment plan.
  • Aligner Application: Your custom aligners are created and provided for you to start treatment.
  • Follow-up Visits: We monitor your progress and provide new aligners as your teeth shift.
  • Retention: After treatment, retainers are provided to maintain your newly aligned smile.
