Offering Quality Care in a Friendly and Caring Atmosphere
Q. Why is "early treatment" recommended for some children?
A. In
some cases, preventive or interceptive care can guide the jaws and erupting
teeth into more favorable positions, improve the growth and alignment of
the jaws, preserve space for the permanent teeth, and/or reduce the likelihood
of fracturing protruded front teeth.
Q. Why is the adolescent growth spurt
so important in orthodontics?
A. This
is a time when much of the growth of the face occurs. Treatment during
this period provides an opportunity to favorably influence the facial
profile in a growing child. Once growth of the facial bones is complete,
correction of jaw discrepancies usually requires surgery. For this reason,
early treatment may save considerable time and
money.
Q. What can we expect from your practice?
A. You
can expect a unique combination of art, science, and experience. Our
goal is to provide the highest level of orthodontic therapy possible
in a caring, friendly environment. We intend to treat you so well personally
and technically that you will feel comfortable in recommending us to
your friends and family.
Q. When is an adult too old for braces?
A. For
those who can benefit from orthodontics, age is not a factor. Adults
who have teeth and healthy supporting structures are never too old.
Increasing numbers of adults are taking advantage of the lifelong benefits
of orthodontics. These are people who've made the choice to spend the
rest of their lives with an attractive, healthy smile and the confidence
that it brings.
It has been shown that one's sense of self-worth is linked to his or her appearance. While many patients want straight teeth, they are embarrassed to wear traditional braces. This can be due to a social stigma or lack of awareness.
Many simply cannot afford the expensive aligners worn by entertainers and professional athletes. Reflections® is a "clear choice" for affordable aesthetic orthodontics.
