Creating Beautiful Smiles
Health Benefits - Smile with Confidence
By age 35, three out of four adults have some form of periodontal disease. Crowded teeth or improper bites often increase the difficulty of maintaining oral health.. Given time, poor dental (teeth) alignment may contribute to 
tooth decay, gum disease and even tooth loss. Orthodontic treatment can result in better dental health.
Bad bite can result in abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, difficulty in chewing and damage to supporting gum tissue. Sometimes crooked teeth and dental malocclusions contribute to TMJ pain and associated headaches.
Psychological Benefits
In today's world a premium is placed on health and beauty. The "mouth is a focus of attention because we consistently communicate and express our feelings through it."* An attractive smile can make a positive difference and create a better first impression. This can help with a child's acceptance and confidence in school or an adult's projected image in their career or perhaps even in a job interview.
An improved appearance through orthodontic treatment can greatly enhance one's self-esteem, and enhanced self-esteem can improve one's quality of life."*
