>If you have an incorrectly positioned jaw or teeth, our orthodontics office in Long Branch can help. We offer a variety of straightening techniques that can completely alter and align any dental imperfections. One of the most utilized methods we offer is traditional braces. Traditional braces are an age-old orthodontic solution that works wonders for our patients’ teeth. If you want more attractive and straighter teeth, you should consider wearing them.

The Benefits of Braces:

No guess work

With traditional braces, there is no guess work. Metal braces have been around since the early 1900s. Different types of metal were used back then, but the results were still straightened dental structures. Traditional metal braces may be more noticeable than other straightening options but are a solid straightening solution that is proven to work.

More confidence

People may not realize how negatively a set of crooked teeth can hinder one’s confidence. Many people spend their lives trying to hide their smiles due to embarrassment. Once we correct the alignment of a patient’s teeth with braces, the patient will be able to smile without hindrance. In many cases, the patient’s confidence levels will skyrocket due to the new appearance.

Less dental decay and infection

Many people struggle with periodontal disease due to their misaligned teeth. Periodontal disease is a detrimental infection of the gums and the tissues that hold the teeth in place. This type of infection can create thousands of dollars in dental bills, leading to the loss of several of the original teeth and receding gums. Do not wait until the teeth are falling out when one can fix the problem now before these issues occur.

Crooked teeth also often result in plaque buildup that can decay the teeth and require several visits to the dentist for treatment. Once we straighten the patient’s teeth, the patient will be able to properly clean every surface and between the teeth to avoid dental illnesses.

Fewer headaches

With misaligned teeth, patients will discover that it is harder to thoroughly chew food. When it requires more muscle power to chew food properly, it can result in headaches. Many people experience headaches on a daily basis without realizing it is caused by misaligned teeth. These examples are just a few of the many benefits of allowing our orthodontics office in Long Branch to treat one’s problematic teeth. With this treatment, patients will immediately notice a difference in how one feels and how easy it is to care for the teeth. It may cost time and money to get braces, but the steps will be worth it. With straight, you will have an easier time taking care of your teeth.
