Benefits of Orthodontics

  • A great smile.
  • Improved confidence.
  • Greater feeling of acceptance.
  • Well aligned teeth that are easier to keep clean and healthy.
  • Ideally positioned teeth which lessen the chance of gingivitis and advanced gum disease.
  • Stop habits that are harmful to teeth and jaw development (eg finger sucking etc.).
  • Correction of protruding "bucked" teeth that are very prone to injury.
  • Close spaces to avoid the need for a bridge or denture.
  • Ideally positioned teeth so more structurally sound bridges can be made.
  • Better chewing and food digestion.
