What is Orthodontics?
Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry dedicated to diagnosing, preventing, and treating tooth alignment problems and malocclusions (bad bites) in both children (by correcting jaw growth and bite issues and making room for permanent teeth to come in properly) and adults (by resolving tooth alignment issues). If left untreated, misaligned teeth and jaws can lead to problems like difficulty chewing, speech issues, and an increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Orthodontic treatments help prevent and effectively treat these problems by aligning and straightening the teeth.
Treatments include Invisalign® aligners and traditional braces. These orthodontic appliances are worn over your teeth and work by applying gentle, continuous pressure to gradually move them into the desired positions. The bone surrounding the teeth responds by remodeling itself to accommodate the new tooth positions. Invisalign® aligners are typically replaced every few weeks, while braces require regular adjustments by the orthodontist.
More Convenient, More Comfortable
Patients often worry about the inconvenience and discomfort of orthodontic treatments, but modern advancements have made these treatments much more comfortable and easier to manage. Invisalign® aligners are almost invisible and can be taken out whenever needed. Traditional braces have also become more comfortable and less obtrusive than they used to be. At our practice, we are dedicated to providing personalized orthodontic care that enhances your smile and promotes overall oral health. Our team in Lasing is here to guide you through every step of your orthodontic treatment.

Invisalign® Aligners
Invisalign® aligners are a modern, discreet alternative to traditional braces. These clear, removable trays are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired position. Ideal for both teens and adults, Invisalign® offers a comfortable and nearly invisible way to achieve a straighter smile without the hassle of metal brackets and wires.

Braces
Traditional braces can help correct a variety of orthodontic issues, including severe misalignments, overbites, and underbites. Braces involve attaching brackets to the teeth and connecting them with wires, which are periodically tightened to gradually move the teeth into the desired position. This orthodontic treatment is effective for patients of all ages.

Retainers
Both children and adults experience changes to their dental structure over time. Retainers help keep teeth aligned as facial structures grow and change. Retainers are also often used after orthodontic treatments. They fit perfectly over your teeth and are worn after your braces or aligners come off to prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original positions.

At our dental office in Lansing, MI, we provide early orthodontic treatment for children to promote optimal dental development and health. Early intervention in orthodontics can be crucial in addressing and correcting malocclusions such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites, as well as dental crowding, spacing issues, and misaligned teeth. By initiating treatment at a young age, we can guide the proper growth and development of the jaw, ensuring that permanent teeth emerge in their correct positions. This proactive approach helps to prevent more severe dental problems in the future, reduces the need for more extensive treatments later on, and can improve overall oral function and aesthetics. We’re committed to making sure your child feels comfortable and cared for throughout the entire process.

To determine if braces or Invisalign are the best options for you, schedule a consultation with our dentists. During your visit, our dentist will thoroughly examine your oral anatomy and dental health, addressing your primary concerns. We will take digital X-rays, photographs, and impressions of your teeth to assess their alignment. If you are considering Invisalign, we will send your records to the Invisalign lab to create a digital representation of your expected results. If you choose traditional braces, treatment can typically begin immediately.
