Straight Teeth & Orthodontics
Orthodontics is a dental specialty focused on diagnosing, preventing, and treating malocclusions — commonly known as “improper bites.” These issues can be caused by crooked or crowded teeth, misaligned jaws, or a combination of both.

Orthodontic care can address tooth alignment alone or include guiding and modifying jaw growth. When treatment involves influencing facial development, it is referred to as dentofacial orthopedics. Both approaches aim to create a healthy bite and beautifully straight teeth.
While many patients seek orthodontics for cosmetic benefits — such as a more attractive smile and balanced facial appearance — treatment often provides important functional improvements. A properly aligned bite can make chewing, speaking, and maintaining oral hygiene easier, while also helping to prevent future dental problems.
