Orthodontics
in Encinitas, CA

Orthodontics are about more than just straightening your smile for cosmetic reasons. While a beautifully aligned grin can certainly boost your confidence, a straight smile is also a healthy one! When your teeth are properly aligned, it's easier to keep your grin clean, which minimizes your chances of developing bacteria buildup, decay, or gum disease. Orthodontics can make it easier to enjoy your favorite foods, reduce jaw pain, and can even improve your airway for easier breathing and more restful sleep.

Braces

Properly aligned teeth have more benefits than their aesthetics alone! While a beautifully straight smile will certainly boost your confidence, it will also make taking care of your oral health easier. Crooked teeth can create hard-to-clean areas that allow bacteria to thrive and cause decay. Misaligned teeth also contribute to a higher risk of premature wear, TMJ/TMD, and other conditions. Braces are a reliable, versatile way to improve your bite and straighten your smile. If you're interested in how braces could help you, get in touch with us today to schedule a consultation.

Early Interceptive Orthodontics

Orthodontic care for your child might seem extreme, but it can save time and money in the future. The sooner you get treatment for your child, the better. Being proactive early can correct problems while your child's teeth are still growing, eliminating the need for complex procedures as they get older. Phase 1 orthodontics is a great way to simplify future treatments. If you are interested in learning more about phase 1 orthodontics, get in touch with us today.

Ceramic Braces

Ceramic braces are clear, wire-based appliances that orthodontists use to correct crooked, gapped, or crowded teeth and create an aligned smile. Similar to traditional braces, ceramic braces gradually apply pressure over time to straighten teeth but use clear or colored brackets and wires that match the shade of your own teeth. Due to their translucent appearance, ceramic braces are an attractive alignment option for patients looking for a less noticeable alternative to metal braces.

Orthodontics

Lingual Braces

Lingual braces are metal-based appliances that are very similar to their traditional counterparts. The difference? These braces are secured on the back of your teeth, making them virtually invisible. Patients looking for a discreet way to straighten minor misalignments may benefit from lingual braces.
