Conditions corrected by Orthodontics

Misaligned teeth and an incorrect bite may affect more than just the appearance of your smile. The following conditions may potentially be corrected by orthodontics:

  • Speech impediments 
  • Jaw or TMJ pain 
  • Difficulty chewing and eating 
  • Sleep apnea caused by mouth breathing and snoring 
  • Grinding or clenching of the teeth 
  • Gum disease and tooth decay 
Patients experiencing any of the above symptoms should contact their dentist to determine the cause of their condition. Aesthetics do, however, play an important role when it comes to deciding if braces are right for you. Self confidence may improve for patients that have concerns with the appearance of their teeth or facial shape. Many treatment options are available for correcting the look of your teeth and smile.
We are excited about what the new year might bring for us and our patients. If you are interested in talking with someone on our staff about how orthodontic treatment is right for you please visit our website and call or fill out the request an appointment form at Straffon Orthodontics in Denver.
