At Karma Dentistry, we want each person to have a vibrant and confident smile. We recognize that it is possible for family members of all ages to achieve well aligned and functional teeth through our orthodontic services that are provided in an unobtrusive manner.
Our focus ranges from resolving and treating difficulties associated with underlying dental troubles to ensuring you have a beaming smile for cosmetic reasons—professional orthodontic care will always be tailored towards your aspirations and lifestyle.
Crooked teeth or a noticeable overbite may be embarrassing. However, aesthetics is not the only reason to treat orthodontic problems.
Crowded, rotated, or crooked teeth are difficult to clean. Tight spaces where your brush and floss won’t reach provide a breeding ground for the harmful bacteria that cause decay.
Bite misalignment can cause jaw pain and chewing difficulty. It can lead to TMJ dysfunction, which has symptoms including migraines and hearing problems.
When the alignment and position of teeth are less than ideal, biting force is unevenly distributed. This can cause some teeth to wear down quickly, or even increase the risk of fractures
Braces help avoid or correct problems as the oral structure is developing. With age, the bone structure becomes denser. Therefore, we monitor orthodontic development of our young patients very closely. If we detect any problems, we strongly recommend braces, which can help your child avoid a lifetime of oral health problems.
Although braces are more effective for children, it is never too late to improve your smile. A growing number of orthodontic patients are adults. In some cases, adults wear braces to treat severe alignment issues. However, many people seek orthodontic treatment for cosmetic reasons. In some cases, these cosmetic goals can be accomplished without braces, by using treatments such as porcelain veneers to cover crooked teeth or tooth bonding to close gaps.
Aesthetics apart, misaligned and crooked teeth interferes with professional oral hygiene practices. The most common orthodontic concerns are:
Proper treatment options can aid elimination of rampant tooth wear; difficulty in cleaning mouth—heightened risk of cavities—due to poor oral hygiene as well as facial pain resulting from TMJ disorders. Better long term maintenance of oral health becomes easier after other existing conditions are treated with orthodontics.
These days it is not necessary to only wear large bulky braces anymore; effective modern options are available which we offer at Karma Dentistry including:
Clear aligners (eg Invisline®) make use of near invisible trays that shift teeth diligently into proper positions as required.
Braces that are less visible and tooth-colored: Considered for patients who require more complex treatment.
We’ll conduct a comprehensive assessment to fit your requirements, age, and lifestyle and collaborate on the ideal solution with you.
Your smile is one of a kind, which means that your orthodontic strategy should be one of a kind too. Your journey begins with the initial consultation where we ensure every adjustment feels effortless in addition to being precise so that your experience is not only smooth but also comfortable and effective throughout.
Improve the alignment of your smile together with boosting confidence by calling Karma Dentistry today to schedule an orthodontic consultation. The team at Karma Dentistry will provide support throughout each step of this transformation because teeth that are aligned harmoniously will result in smiles that shine.
