Jacksonville Orthodontic Services

Orthodontic treatment refers to a dentistry specialty that diagnoses, prevents, and manages the correction of misaligned teeth and jaws, making an improvement in any smile. Medically necessary or cosmetic orthodontic treatment may be appropriate and recommended. Some common problems that may require orthodontic treatment are crowded and misaligned teeth which cause teeth to not fit well together. Crowding and misaligned teeth can make it harder to keep teeth clean which can lead to unnecessary wear and tear on good teeth resulting in more costly dental work. Improper alignment can also lead to TMJ and jaw related issues. There are many different options that will fit even the most busiest adult or teen.

What Issues Can Be Corrected With Orthodontic Care?

Overcrowded and Unevenly Spaced Teeth

It isn’t uncommon to have overcrowded teeth or gaps between teeth, and it is the most common problem that braces are used to correct. Braces can help to straighten and space your teeth properly by applying a gentle yet effective pressure to the teeth and moving them into a more aligned position.

Overbites and Underbites

Overbites and Underbites, known as malocclusions, are another common problem that can typically be solved with orthodontic care. Many patients are surprised to learn how easy and affordable it is to fix their overbite or underbite with ClearCorrect braces.

Jaw Misalignment

When teeth do not align correctly, the misaligned or crooked teeth can also cause a misalignment of the jaw. When the jaw doesn’t align correctly while biting or chewing, it can eventually lead to pain or discomfort in the jaw. In some cases, it can cause issues with your temporal mandibular joint (TMJ) - leading to more pain and additional complications. Orthodontic procedures are often the most effective way to fix this kind of jaw misalignment. By correcting the crooked teeth, the jaw can again align correctly, and the pain and discomfort is eliminated.
