IMPORTANCE OF A WELL-ALIGNED BITE

A well-aligned bite has lifelong benefits. It not only enhances your smile but also improves overall oral health. Proper tooth alignment allows you to chew and eat properly and helps prevent temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. The good news is that it’s never too late to align your bite. At Texas Dentistry and Braces, we offer a range of orthodontic treatments for both adults and children. Our experienced team will help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted. Whether you or your child needs traditional braces, clear aligners, or other orthodontic devices, there are many options for treatment. Your dentist will do a thorough evaluation and take the time to understand your smile goals before creating a customized treatment plan. We use the latest orthodontic technology and treatments available so you and your family can enjoy the benefits of a well-aligned bite.

The Evaluation

WHAT TO EXPECT

During your orthodontic evaluation, our team will first perform a comprehensive assessment of your bite and overall oral health. We use advanced imaging techniques and photographs to thoroughly evaluate your teeth and jaws. This helps us to determine the most suitable treatment options for you. We will then discuss treatment recommendations, the orthodontic process, and the total cost. Our goal is to provide you with all the information you need so you are empowered to make informed decisions about your care.

Texas Density and Braces Mesquite is one of the best! I first started going there when I was 5 just going for cleanings, and now I’m almost about to be 20 now going for braces, and ever since I have had the most amazing experience with everyone!

When to Start Orthodontic Checks

WHY EARLY EVALUATIONS ARE IMPORTANT

Children should have their first orthodontic evaluation around age 7. At this stage, the jaw and facial bones are still growing. This makes it an ideal time to find and address any orthodontic issues. By evaluating the child’s dental and skeletal development, your orthodontist can detect crowding, misalignment, or other bite irregularities. Early intervention allows for timely treatment that helps guide the growth and development of the jaws, creating space for permanent teeth. It also minimizes the need for more extensive (and expensive) orthodontic treatment in the future.

Traditional Braces

SETTING UP FOR STRAIGHTER TEETH

Traditional braces have long been a trusted method for achieving straight teeth and a well-aligned bite. At Texas Dentistry and Braces, we offer traditional braces as part of our orthodontic treatment options. Traditional braces consist of metal brackets and wires that gradually move teeth into the desired position. Our experienced orthodontic team performs regular adjustments to ensure the teeth are progressing as they should. Traditional braces are a reliable, time-tested option for various orthodontic concerns, including crowding, gaps, and crossbites. Rest assured that our team will provide you with all of the information you need to make the most of your braces so that you achieve the smile you’ve always dreamed of.

Clear Aligners

A DISCREET STRAIGHTENING METHOD

If you’re looking for a discreet and convenient way to straighten your teeth, clear aligners are the ideal solution for you. At Texas Dentistry and Braces, we offer custom-made clear aligners that fit snugly over your teeth. This series of removable aligners gently guides your teeth into proper alignment. They provide a discreet and comfortable alternative to traditional braces. With no brackets or wires, you can keep smiling confidently, brush and floss easily, and continue enjoying your favorite foods.

Retainers

KEEPING YOUR STRAIGHT SMILE IN PLACE

Retainers maintain the results achieved through other orthodontic treatments, such as braces and clear aligners. Wearing your retainers as directed will keep the teeth from shifting out of line. Our team will guide you on how often to wear your retainers and how to properly care for them so you can enjoy the lasting benefits of a beautifully aligned smile.

Interceptive Orthodontics

WHAT IT IS AND HOW IT HELPS

Interceptive orthodontics is a proactive approach to orthodontic treatment. It focuses on the identification and treatment of orthodontic issues early in a child’s life. Typically, interceptive orthodontics begins between the ages of 7 and 10. Treatment may involve the use of various appliances, including palatal expanders and space maintainers. These devices help to guide the growth and alignment of the jaws and create sufficient space for permanent teeth. Interceptive orthodontics enables optimal dental development and more-efficient treatment, preventing the need for invasive surgeries later in life.

Texas Dentistry and Braces provides orthodontic services to both adults and children.
