Making the decision to correct spacing problems with the alignment of your teeth requires knowing what options are available for your orthodontic treatment. Because issues with spacing span in level of severity, different procedures are available to treat your specific degree of malocclusion. By learning about each treatment, you can select a service that improves the function of your bite while best serving your esthetic goals as well. At Lake Country Orthodontics, your Fort Worth, TX orthodontist places a premium on discretion throughout the treatment process. Custom materials allow our appliances to straighten your smile while being difficult to notice in your mouth. This empowers you to let others know about your orthodontic solution on your own terms!
Alternative Solutions To Traditional Metal Braces
While traditional bracket-and-wire metal braces provide desirable cosmetic and functional results for straightening your teeth, they can make certain patients feel rather self-conscious. Because they are noticeable whenever you smile, speak, or laugh, some people may avoid corrective work because of their appearance during the treatment period. For those patients, we are proud to provide multiple orthodontic solutions that address the same concerns while drawing less attention in your professional and social lives. You should not have to sacrifice your appearance in the near term to optimize your long-term oral health!
Invisalign® Clear Aligners
Pursuing orthodontic treatment with Invisalign® clear aligners can straighten the spacing of your teeth in a discreet manner that avoids certain complications of traditional solutions. This service brings your smile into alignment with a series of multiple trays that are customized to your specific bite. Each tray gradually shifts your teeth until they are in the proper position at the end of treatment. Because they are removable, Invisalign® allows you to easily brush and floss your teeth to maintain your oral hygiene over the treatment period. You will not have to worry about food sticking to your appliance as it may be taken off at mealtime as well.
Tooth-Colored Brackets
If your degree of malocclusion is best served by a bracket-and-wire appliance, we can provide tooth-colored brackets to minimize their appearance in your mouth. Because they are made with a custom ceramic material, tooth-colored brackets correct the same orthodontic issues as metal brackets while being less noticeable. The bracket will match the shade of your natural enamel for inconspicuous treatment during tooth realignment.
