Expert Homewood Orthodontists For Complex Orthodontic Conditions
Treating Orthodontic Conditions for Confident Smiles
Orthodontic conditions, such as a bad bite, can impact the way we feel about ourselves. These problems can affect the alignment of the teeth and jaw, making it hard to maintain optimal oral health. By seeking orthodontic treatment options like braces, 3M clear aligners, and ceramic braces, you can treat your smile with the care it needs. If you suffer from the following conditions, know that our Homewood orthodontists have the solution to help you achieve a straight smile.
Overbite
An overbite is a result of poor childhood habits or due to a genetic trait, where the upper front teeth overlap significantly over the lower teeth. This can cause issues in your oral health involving gum diseases or infections. Addressing an overbite with orthodontic treatment can help prevent the risk of costly and complex orthodontic treatment in the future.
Crowding
Crowded teeth are a common orthodontic condition, one that our orthodontists in Homewood see often. It is when the teeth overlap improperly due to insufficient space along the jaw. Orthodontic treatment through affordable braces or 3M clear aligners can help align the position of the teeth, helping you achieve optimal oral health.
Gapped Teeth
Spaces in the front two teeth or along the jaw result due to the size of the teeth or due to abnormal loss of teeth, causing the others to spread out unevenly. To treat these gaps, 3M clear aligners or alternatives to Invisalign can be used to achieve a straight-aligned smile.
Crossbite
A common sign of a crossbite is when the lower teeth sit outside of the upper teeth which can lead to tooth decay, gum diseases, and a variety of dental problems. Treatment through affordable braces or 3M clear aligners can help achieve alignment and enhance oral health.
Open Bite
An overbite can be categorized when the upper and lower teeth do not align or bite in the correct position. For open bite correction, braces or 3M clear aligners can help balance the bite by pushing the teeth into proper alignment.
