At your Prairie Village, KS, dental practice, we look forward to helping you unlock all of the positive aspects of a straighter smile. Because uneven teeth can lead to uneven wear and tear on your enamel, orthodontic correction can help you preserve the healthy material of your natural smile. This lessens the need for expensive corrective work in the future. If these benefits sound desirable to you, give us a call right away!
When each of your teeth do not touch neatly in your bite, you may have a condition known as malocclusion. When this happens, the teeth that do touch take a disproportionate amount of force from your bite’s impact. While your enamel is the strongest material in the human body, it may not be able to handle the increased forces from your uneven bite. As the enamel breaks down, it exposes the inner portion of your tooth to decay and infection. But by bringing your teeth into position, we can preserve your enamel and protect your smile!
At your consultation for clear aligners, we will take a digital scan of your teeth and other oral structures. This allows us to project how your teeth will appear at the end of treatment. By sending the same scan to technicians at an offsite lab, your aligner trays are created to match your specific bite. Over the coming weeks, you will trade out sets of aligner trays as they gradually bring your teeth into a straighter position.
If you would like to explore an alternative to traditional metal braces, give clear aligners a chance! To learn more about this service, please contact your Prairie Village, KS dentist’s office at 913-901-8585.
