All jokes aside, you don\u2019t have to live every day embarrassed by your own smile. Orthodontic treatments<\/a> today are much more desirable than those of yesteryear. There are a lot of good reasons to straighten your teeth, both functional and aesthetic. And there are a lot of good times in your life to commit to a treatment \u2013 like now! But how do you decide among all of your options for teeth straightening?<\/p>\n Dr. Barganier, Dr. Zuffi, Dr. Williams, and Dr. McAdams<\/a> are experienced dentists in Goose Creek and can help you understand your options.<\/p>\n In an ideal world, your top teeth should rest down and in line with their opposing tooth on the bottom. This helps you smile, chew, and speak smoothly. If you have any problems with this, like a crooked tooth or odd spacing between teeth, you\u2019ve got an improper bite. Improper bites (also called malocclusion) can cause overbite, underbite, and crossbite. An improper bite can make you self-conscious of your smile and can cause excessive stress and forces on your teeth and jaw joint (TMJ).<\/p>\n Orthodontics is a dental treatment that slowly moves your teeth and jaw to help your teeth line up better. The metallic \u201ctrain tracks\u201d found on nearly every middle schooler, and the removable retainer likely gathering dust in your medicine cabinet are both types of orthodontic appliances.<\/p>\n If you\u2019d like the benefit of a smile makeover without the metallic dramatics, you\u2019re in good company. Many people are interested in Invisalign\u00ae and Six Month Smiles\u00ae for all of the orthodontic benefits and none of the obvious metal mouth.<\/p>\n Only you can decide which option is best for you. But don\u2019t make your choice without a professional opinion. Carolina Complete Dental provides professional orthodontic treatments as well as whitening<\/a> and cleaning to truly give you a healthy, beautiful smile.<\/p>\nA Healthy Bite<\/h3>\n
