Crooked teeth can diminish your confidence and have a negative impact on your oral health. Luckily, there are many teeth straightening options that can give you the smile you want. Whether you need orthodontic treatment or a minor cosmetic revision, we can make the process of straightening your teeth as easy as possible.
When it comes to crooked teeth, it is necessary to check just how severe the misalignment is. We do this by taking X-rays, visually examining the teeth, and evaluating digital models captured by our intra-oral scanner.
If you aren’t happy with your smile, it can affect your quality of life. Sahaja Dental can help. We can correct crooked teeth using cosmetic or orthodontic procedures depending on your specific case.
That’s a question to ask both yourself and your orthodontist. Braces will have an impact on your daily routines and will be a part of your life for a year or more. It’s important to know your options, so you can make the best choice for your lifestyle.
Types of Braces
Metal Braces
Ceramic Braces
Invisalign
Metal Braces
Braces made of metal are one of the most common orthodontic treatment options and have proven to be effective for many years. Despite their durability, reliability, and versatility, these devices can be used to treat a wide range of dental issues. As metal braces are visible on the front of the teeth, some patients may be reluctant to opt for them because of their appearance. Instead, they may opt for lingual braces or Invisalign.
Ceramic Braces
Many people prefer ceramic braces over traditional metal braces because they are more discreet. In general, they are recommended for patients with moderate dental problems who can benefit from braces, but who prefer not to wear metal braces. As they are not as strong or durable as metal braces, they may not be the best option for more complex orthodontic cases. The maintenance and adjustment of ceramic braces may also require more frequent attention than those of metal braces.
Invisalign
Treatment involves wearing a series of comfortable, removable, and nearly invisible aligners. This means that while you are undergoing treatment, no one can easily tell that you are wearing them, allowing you to smile confidently.
To create the custom aligners, Invisalign uses advanced 3D computer imaging technology. With the help of this technology, our orthodontist can design a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your unique dental needs.
