Orthodontics

Several factors can cause teeth to be misaligned and grow unevenly. Heredity plays an important part in how your teeth erupt and how evenly they come in. Many times they are less than perfect. In addition to being unsightly, they can cause problems with the bite, which can ultimately lead to periodontal disease or advanced tooth decay.

Orthodontists aim to not only improve the looks of the teeth, but also to help avoid problems later in life.

If you our your child's teeth are misaligned, it is important to make an appointment with your dentist to determine whether this misalignment will cause further damage.
