What Can Braces Help With?

Gum Disease

Gum disease, already a concerning problem in Americans, is prevented by braces in the long run. Braces will move your teeth into proper positioning for easy flossing and brushing. Without their efforts, food is much more likely to become stuck in crevices in the mouth and cause issues over time.

Bone Erosion

Bone erosion is a less common dental problem in America, but it’s still something prevented with the good implementation of braces. Long-entrenched bacteria or frequent oral grinding will wear away at the jaw. This can cause strain injuries, protruding teeth, and even cracks. Accidents only compound the bad outcomes; people with bad jaws and misaligned teeth are more likely to be harmed by impact-related accidents like falls.

Chewing Difficulties

Braces will slowly help with aligning the jaw, especially in populations like children who are still undergoing the process of jaw development. By rebalancing the teeth and encouraging proper bone directional growth, will also prevent bad bite patterns and malocclusions that make chewing food thoroughly difficult. As chewing is essential to the digestive system’s later work, making sure that it can be done easily and without pain is a must.

Tooth Decay

Tooth decay is also a common problem that is addressed by braces. Since we believe in preventative oral health, protecting the enamel layer on your teeth is our primary concern when preventing tooth and gum rot. There is only so much dense enamel on each tooth before it is permanently eroded. Braces will prevent the buildup of excess acids and harmful bacteria that enjoy malaligned teeth and snug places.

Self-Esteem

People getting braces in Gonzales have elevated their self-image, too. Although challenging to talk about for some, sporting a crooked smile can put a damper on wanting to smile at all in the first place. This can lead to a disproportionately aligned jaw, especially in younger people, if left untreated.

I started the treatment process for Invisalign about 1 year ago. My experience with staff upon arrival to do the initial scans, pictures, evaluation, and consultation in efforts to straighten my smile was very smooth, educational, and accommodating in every area. When I met with my treatment coordinator, Becky, she went over all payment options, treatment timeline, and effectively gathered any and all of my personal preferences in terms of my goals. Dr. Jim later joined us and efficiently explained...
