\"Learn<\/a>Living with crooked or misaligned teeth affects not only your appearance and confidence, but also your oral health. Crooked teeth can be hard to keep clean, which puts you at a greater risk for tooth decay and periodontal disease. Not to mention the embarrassment you may feel when you smile for the family photos. The good news is that there are many options for straightening your teeth with orthodontics<\/a> in Denton.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Traditional Orthodontics<\/h3>\n

Clear or metal brackets and wires can be utilized to apply gentle pressure and gradually straighten teeth and align bites, providing better form, function and improved oral health. You\u2019ll visit your provider every two to three weeks for adjustments to your braces, and most cases take around 18-24 months to complete. The result is a beautiful straight smile that you\u2019ll be proud to share with the world.<\/p>\n

Invisalign<\/h3>\n

For busy adults or teens who may not like the idea of straightening their teeth with bulky metal braces, Invisalign in Denton utilizes clear plastic aligners that also use light pressure to straighten your teeth. Because the aligners are clear and fit snugly, they\u2019re virtually invisible and they won\u2019t interfere with talking and smiling.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll wear your aligners for 20-22 hours per day, however they can be removed for eating, brushing and the occasional big event. This means that there are no dietary restrictions with Invisalign like there are with traditional braces, and your home care routine will never suffer during treatment. The result is a beautiful, straighter smile that you\u2019ll be proud of.<\/p>\n
