Why Is Orthodontics Important?

An attractive smile and improved self-image are just a couple of the benefits of orthodontic treatment. Alleviating and preventing physical health problems is just as important. There are recent studies that link poor dental health to overall poor physical health. Without treatment, orthodontic problems can lead to tooth decay, gum disease, bone destruction, chewing and digestive difficulties, speech impairments, tooth loss and other dental injuries. If your teeth are causing you to have a negative self-image, or you desire to correct your malocclusion, please contact our office for more information.
