  • Dr. Kurtz provides the best possible service to ensure his customers get the best smile. The whole process for the Invisalign treatment from start to finish has been a very pleasant experience as the staff works diligently. They were even helpful after the treatment as I had concerns regarding my retainers.

  • I went in for a consultation and met the assistant, Shelly within a few minutes of arriving. She was very pleasant and ran some scans of my teeth and very shortly afterwards, the Dr Kurtz came in to discuss my situation. He was very professional and provided all the information I needed. I was very pleased with the entire experience.

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaw irregularities. Orthodontic treatments aim to improve the appearance and function of teeth by addressing issues such as crooked teeth, overcrowding, gaps, and bite problems (like overbites, underbites, and crossbites).

Common treatments include braces, clear aligners (like Invisalign), and retainers, which gradually shift teeth into their proper positions.

What are Some Common Orthodontic Issues?

Overbite 

An overbite occurs when your upper front teeth significantly overlap the lower front teeth. This can cause additional wear on the teeth and affect chewing or speech.

Underbite 

In an underbite, the lower teeth extend beyond the upper teeth, making biting and chewing difficult and potentially causing jaw pain.

Crossbite 

A crossbite happens when some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth, causing uneven wear on the teeth, gum issues, and possible jaw misalignment.

Open Bite 

With an open bite, the upper and lower front teeth don't touch when the mouth is closed, which can affect speech and the ability to bite into food properly.

Crowding 

Crowding occurs when there isn’t enough space for all teeth to fit properly, causing them to overlap or twist, which can lead to difficulty cleaning and an increased risk of decay.

Spacing 

Spacing issues involve gaps between teeth, which may be caused by teeth that are missing or are too small for the jaw. These issues can affect both appearance and oral health.

Delaying Orthodontic Treatment Can be Dangerous – Here’s How

Orthodontics isn’t just about cosmetic benefits—it plays a vital role in maintaining your oral health.

Misaligned teeth can lead to various oral health issues, such as:

  • Increased Risk of Tooth Decay: Misaligned teeth are harder to clean, leading to plaque buildup and a higher likelihood of cavities and tooth decay if treatment is delayed.
  • Gum Disease: Crowded or misaligned teeth can cause food particles and plaque to accumulate in hard-to-reach areas, increasing the risk of gum inflammation and periodontal disease.
  • Jaw Pain and Discomfort: Bite issues, such as overbites or underbites, can strain the jaw muscles and joints, leading to chronic pain or discomfort if not corrected early.
  • Excessive Wear on Teeth: Misaligned teeth can cause uneven pressure during biting or chewing, leading to premature wear, fractures, or even tooth loss over time.
  • Speech and Chewing Difficulties: Delay in treatment can exacerbate speech impediments or difficulties chewing food properly, impacting overall oral function and quality of life.
  • Bone Loss: Untreated orthodontic issues can cause abnormal forces on teeth, leading to bone erosion around the teeth and, over time, potential tooth instability or loss.

Clear Aligners 

For a more discreet solution, our clear aligners may be the best choice. These custom-made, removable trays are almost invisible and gradually shift your teeth into place. Clear aligners are especially favored by adults and teens seeking a less noticeable orthodontic treatment.

Invisalign Attachments 

Invisalign clear aligners, introduced in the late 1990s, offer a discreet alternative to traditional metal braces for mild to moderate malocclusion. For patients with moderate to severe alignment issues, Invisalign attachments—small, tooth-colored dots bonded to teeth—can enhance treatment effectiveness by providing extra grip and control. These attachments, designed to blend with natural teeth, allow patients with more complex alignment needs to benefit from the convenience and subtle appearance of Invisalign aligners, making it a versatile solution for achieving a straighter smile.
