Orthodontic Dentistry

Orthodontics

Orthodontic dentistry, often sought after for its cosmetic and functional benefits, focuses on correcting misaligned teeth and improving overall dental health.  The primary goal of orthodontic treatment is to straighten crooked teeth, correct bite irregularities (malocclusions), and achieve proper alignment of the teeth and jaws.  This not only enhances the smile’s aesthetics but also improves chewing and speech abilities while reducing the risk of dental problems like tooth decay, gum disease, and jaw joint disorders.

Invisalign®, a popular orthodontic treatment, offers a discreet and convenient alternative to traditional metal braces.  Invisalign employs a series of clear, removable aligners made from a comfortable plastic material.  These aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over the teeth and gradually move them into their desired positions.  Unlike braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, allowing patients to straighten their teeth discreetly.

Orthodontic treatment typically requires regular follow-up visits for adjustments and progress monitoring.  The duration of treatment varies depending on the severity of the orthodontic issues, but it generally ranges from several months to a few years.

Orthodontics Services

At Linglestown Family Dental, we begin the treatment process with a thorough orthodontic examination to determine if Invisalign is suitable for the patient’s specific needs.  Using advanced computer imaging technology, a 3D model of the teeth is created to design a customized treatment plan.  The aligners are then fabricated and replaced periodically to accommodate the shifting teeth.
