At first thought of a confident smile, we think it simply means having straight teeth. While alignment of teeth is important cosmetically, there are also health benefits to orthodontics that aren’t frequently discussed or considered. Teeth that aren’t aligned properly can cause excessive wear which then leads to tooth decay and can cause major long-term and irreversible tooth damage. In other words, when we straighten our teeth, we give ourselves the opportunity to protect and extend the life and health of our teeth.
Our office continues to stand by clear aligner therapy to align teeth. Just like it sounds, the aligners are clear and fit over the teeth as they reposition into their proper alignment. There’s virtually no change to your lifestyle, other than the commitment to wearing the aligners 24/7 with the exception of eating and brushing your teeth.
It’s not very often we can look into the future and see what the finish line looks like in life. But patients that decide to pursue clear aligner therapy will have the opportunity to envision their smiles with a computer-generated simulation, showing their projected results. They can then choose if they wish to proceed with treatment.
We are always caring for our existing patients while accepting any new patients into our practice as well. Call Elegant Edge Cosmetic & Family Dentistry at 248-852-3130 to make an appointment today.
Gain the confidence you’ve always dreamed of. And remember, your smile is the first thing you put on every day.
