Numerous orthodontic options are available to you, such as clear aligners and adult braces, depending on your individual needs and preferences.
Children and adults both benefit from orthodontics dentistry, but treatment times are generally longer for adults. Examples of orthodontic mechanics options Alpha Omega Dental Center may recommend are:
For minor alignment irregularities, Invisalign® clear aligners can slowly shift teeth into a more desirable position. Invisalign is nearly invisible, so most people won’t know you’re wearing them. You can take aligners out to brush your teeth and eat, and you can achieve desired results in as little as six months.
Traditional braces are appropriate for more severe cases and utilize brackets, or anchors, to stabilize dental hardware in your mouth. The brackets are often clear in color to reduce the appearance of braces. Brackets are securely placed on the front or back of teeth to slowly achieve proper alignment.
Expansion and growth assistance can help children achieve the beautiful smile they desire. The Alpha Omega Dental Center team lets you know which orthodontics option will yield the best results for you or your child based on each unique situation and your preferences.=
