Using Aligners To Fix Crooked Teeth

The problems with your uneven smile can affect more than just your appearance. If your teeth are not straightened, you can continue to struggle with difficulties connected to an uneven bite movement, including difficulties with persistent jaw pain. You can also have a harder time keeping your smile clean because certain portions of teeth are difficult for you to reach and properly clean. At our Charles City, IA dentist’s office, we can look at the current state of your smile alignment and see if you are a good fit for treatment with clear aligners. If you are, we can proceed with a procedure that offers meaningful cosmetic benefits as well as positive changes for your oral health.

Is Your Smile Negatively Affected By The Appearance Of Crooked Teeth?

Teeth that are even slightly out of position can create issues for your appearance, and may also be the reason why you have difficulties with jaw movement and other oral health concerns. Poor spacing can leave you with visible gaps or overlaps, and it can also make you less confident in the way you look because your smile looks asymmetrical. Once you start to look into treatment, you can find that there are smile-friendly and patient-friendly approaches to fixing this problem that do not require metal braces that are permanently set in place until your treatment ends. With Invisalign aligners, we can help you move your teeth discreetly!

Planning Your Treatment With Clear Aligners

To effectively plan your Invisalign treatment, we will take close measurements of your teeth and oral structures. This will help us determine how your adjustment should proceed, and it will also let us know what shape and size your aligners should be. A set of these appliances will be provided to you. With each one, you take another step closer to your completed treatment and your restored appearance. Keep them in position for as much time as possible to make sure that you reach your treatment end at the expected time. With that said, you are free to remove them whenever you eat or clean your smile.

Hiding Gaps And Overlaps With Conservative Cosmetic Work

It may be possible for us to proceed with other cosmetic dental services to address gaps and overlaps between teeth. With porcelain veneers or tooth bonding and contouring work, we can make this and other kinds of corrections possible in a surprisingly short time.
