Dental Braces

Issues Corrected By Dental Braces

​

Braces help correct and repair problems with the alignment of our teeth. That helps your overall dental health since it makes it easier to clean your teeth, preventing the development of tooth decay and periodontal disease. Correcting severe alignment problems can also lessen stress in your jaw once you can bite down correctly.

​

Issues Corrected by Braces

​

Braces can be an option for patients with the following alignment issues.

• Overbite — The upper front teeth stick out over your lower teeth

• Underbite — The lower teeth push too far forward, or the upper teeth lean too far inward

• Crossbite — The upper teeth fail to come down in front of your lower teeth when biting

• Open bite — There is a space between the biting surfaces of the front or side teeth when your back teeth bite down

• Spacing — You have spaces or gaps in between your teeth
