Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating dental and facial irregularities, specifically related to the alignment of the teeth and jaws. We are trained to assess issues like crowded teeth, misaligned bites, and jaw discrepancies, and to develop treatment plans to correct these problems for improved oral health, function, and appearance – treating self esteem.

Orthodontics involves the use of various devices to align teeth and jaws, which can significantly improve a patient’s ability to chew, speak, and maintain oral hygiene. Proper alignment also helps in preventing issues like excessive wear on teeth, jaw pain, or temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
