Braces West Blocton, AL
If you have misaligned or crooked teeth, smiling may feel like a chore. Your oral health can suffer, too; it’s harder to completely brush and floss, and even have your teeth professionally cleaned, when they’re overlapping or crooked. Our West Blocton braces treatment is designed to straighten your teeth for a bright, beautiful, and healthy smile. We treat patients of all ages, developing a personalized treatment plan to address your unique needs.
Orthodontic treatment typically includes wearing braces for a few years. These may be traditional metal braces, which are best suited to correct severely misaligned teeth for a uniform appearance. For our patients whose needs are more cosmetic than medically necessary, we offer more subtle methods, like Invisalign aligners, to subtly shift teeth into a straighter position.
Braces use fixed brackets, attached to the teeth and connected with thin metal wires, to exert gentle pressure on the teeth, guiding them into a different position. Braces can even be used to treat jaw irregularities and overlapping bite patterns, which can relieve pain and pressure on your jaw and face. The progress is gradual and often requires regular trips to our client to adjust the position of the braces and monitor your teeth's progress. We carefully create and maintain your BRCs treatments for optimal results.
Once your braces treatment is complete, our orthodontist reviews your post-braces care plan, which usually involves wearing a retainer to keep your teeth in position and regular dental checkups to ensure they remain in their new positions. When you’re done, you’ll be amazed at how much better it feels to chew, talk, and smile!
