Orthodontics is a dental specialty that involves correcting teeth that are improperly positioned. Dental Health International is proud to offer the most technologically relevant orthodontic services for our patients.
Our orthodontists treat malocclusions that are often called “bad bites.” This is when a client bites down and their teeth do not line up correctly. We also treat crooked teeth, or teeth that simply do not line up correctly. Orthodontists also focus on the development of the facial bones and jaw.
While orthodontics can be considered as a cosmetic procedure, it is important to fix these problems for a healthy mouth. Teeth that are crooked are the perfect place for food and bacteria to hide. Teeth that are hard to clean can lead to cavities and other problems down the line. The goal in treating problem teeth is to ensure a healthy mouth in the future. Orthodontics can also improve eating and a patient’s speech as well.
Beyond braces, we offer other orthodontic appliances to help achieve these goals. If you have any questions about orthodontics, feel free to contact us today at (617) 884-4444. We would be happy to answer your questions.
