Orthodontic Treatments in Riverside

Orthodontic Treatments

Our qualified orthodontists offer orthodontic treatments. Read on to
find basic information about the types of treatment you can find at our
dental office.

Why would someone require orthodontic
treatments?

You may require orthodontic treatment if:

  • You have teeth that are visibly crooked or crowded.

  • You have missing teeth or extra teeth.

  • You have an underbite or overbite.

  • You have problems reaching some of your teeth with your
    toothbrush.

  • You have gaps between teeth.

  • You have difficulties biting, chewing, or speaking.

  • You have jaw pain.

There are several treatments that fall under the specialty of
orthodontics. Some of the most common include:

Braces

Braces gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions over
time using a combination of brackets, bands, and wires. Braces may be
fixed or removable. There are different types of braces such as metal
braces, ceramic braces, and lingual braces. Your orthodontist will
explain the capabilities and limitations of each set of braces.

Clear Aligners

When you mention clear aligners, the most popular brand that comes to
mind for many patients is Invisalign. Invisalign is the most used brand
and because of how comfortable and effective Invisalign aligners are.
They are worn discreetly unlike braces which visibly pass across your
teeth. Another brand of clear aligners is ClearCorrect. Aligners are
provided in sets, with each set moving your teeth slightly toward the
expected result.

Retainers

If you wear braces or clear aligners, you’ll need a retainer once
your orthodontic treatment ends. A retainer is a custom oral appliance
that keeps your teeth from drifting out of their proper positions.

Teeth Extraction

Teeth extraction is an orthodontic treatment if the affected tooth is
causing your teeth’s alignment to change.

To learn more about other treatment options including jaw surgery for
correcting teeth misalignment caused by the jaw, call our
orthodontists.
