Benefits of Orthodontic Treatments

When you are unhappy with your smile, it shows. You may not smile as often as others, and you may avoid speaking publicly or with new people. Our cosmetic dentist in Los Angeles can use orthodontic treatments to help you get the smile you want.

There are many benefits to orthodontic treatment, including:

1.    A healthy smile
An aligned and balanced bite is simply a healthier bite. Teeth are less prone to abnormal wear and tear, and they are easier to clean, which means less vulnerable to decay and gum disease.

2.    A comfortable bite
Teeth that align properly are easier to use, and you are not as likely to suffer from bruxism, TMJ disorders or other painful conditions associated with a bad bite.

3.    New self-confidence
A straight, attractive smile can boost your confidence and help you feel good about the way you look.You may be more committed to keeping it healthy through good dental practices, too.

Most orthodontic treatments can be completed in 12 to 18 months, and your new smile will be ready to share before you know it. Call us today to find out more or to schedule your consultation with our orthodontist in Los Angeles.
