If you have jaw problems that affect your oral functions, sleep, or wellbeing, come in for a free consultation to discuss how we can help.
Orthodontic treatment creates straight teeth that look amazing and a smile that boosts confidence. But that’s only the beginning of the benefits. Aligned teeth and a correct bite offer lifelong health improvements. Straight teeth are far easier to keep clean, which dramatically decreases tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath.
A healthy bite minimizes bone and gum loss and prevents abnormal wear of the tooth enamel. Protecting tooth enamel is important because once it’s gone, you can’t get it back—prevention is truly the best treatment.
You get just one set of permanent teeth, and protecting them with top-quality dental and orthodontic care is easier, more comfortable, and cheaper than reconstructive and aesthetic procedures down the road. Get yourself or your child on the path to lifelong oral health.
Not everyone needs jaw surgery, but it’s a life-changing option for those who do. With surgery we correct congenital jaw problems like a cleft lip or palate as well as common issues such as impacted wisdom or canine teeth, bad bites, obstructive sleep apnea, TMJ, chronic mouth breathing, or facial imbalances.
Some patients require orthognathic surgery after a facial trauma.
In addition to correcting a problem, surgery can eliminate jaw pain and improve your mouth functions, digestion and nutrition, sleep quality, and appearance. Looking better increases self-esteem and feeling better remarkably enhances your quality of life.
Impacted teeth either can’t or can only partially break through the gumline, such as wisdom teeth (which often need to be removed). Permanent maxillary canines (some call them “fangs”) emerge last, sometimes getting impacted and then developing infections.
Infections are serious because canines’ roots are the longest and these teeth are key in the dental arch and biting food.
If our methods of coaxing out the tooth aren’t enough, we will help you coordinate with a specialist so that we can work to expose the tooth and place a bracket on the impacted tooth to help move it into place.
