Braces create beautiful smiles by straightening crooked and misaligned teeth. An attractive smile is a wonderful asset. It is a vital component to self-esteem and can contribute to social and career success.
Straight teeth are not only attractive, but they are less prone to tooth decay, gum disease, and injury. Misaligned teeth can also cause abnormal tooth wear, excessive stress on gum tissue and bone that supports the teeth, misalignment of jaw joints, and sometimes chronic headaches or jaw pain.
At Health First Dental, we use the technology of SPEED braces to correct minor tooth misalignments. As the name implies, SPEED braces work faster than conventional braces. They are also smaller, making them more esthetic and easier to keep clean.
If your condition requires extensive movement of the teeth, we will be happy to refer you to an orthodontist in the area.
