At Dental Care of Artesia, we are dedicated to bringing you the expertise and artistry of orthodontic care.
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of dental and facial irregularities. The primary goal of orthodontic treatment is to achieve proper alignment of the teeth and jaws, resulting in improved oral health, function, and aesthetics. Orthodontists are dental professionals who specialize in this field and undergo additional training beyond general dentistry to become experts in correcting misaligned teeth and jaws.
Orthodontic treatment typically involves the use of devices such as braces, aligners, and other appliances to gradually move teeth into their desired positions. These treatments help to correct bite issues, straighten teeth, improve facial balance, and enhance overall oral health. The specific treatment plan varies depending on the individual’s needs and can take several months to a few years to complete.
Orthodontic care is not only about achieving a more attractive smile but also about addressing potential oral health problems that can arise from misaligned teeth and jaws. By improving the alignment of the teeth, orthodontics can contribute to better oral hygiene, easier chewing and speaking, and a decreased risk of dental issues in the future.
From preventive care check-ups to cosmetic and restorative procedures, our staff can provide your whole family’s complete dental care.
