Why Consider Orthodontics?
Orthodontic treatment can address a variety of concerns, including:
- Crowded teeth: When there isn't enough space for all teeth to align properly.
- Gaps between teeth: Spaces that can affect appearance and allow food to get trapped.
- Overbite: When the upper front teeth significantly overlap the lower front teeth.
- Underbite: When the lower front teeth extend out beyond the upper front teeth.
- Crossbite: When some upper teeth bite inside the lower teeth.
- Open bite: When the front teeth don't touch when the mouth is closed.
- Jaw misalignment: Issues with how the upper and lower jaws fit together.
Correcting your smile's alignment can improve your bite, make brushing and flossing easier, reduce wear and tear on your teeth, and enhance your overall facial aesthetics.
Our top orthodontic treatments at Acre Wood Dental in Round Rock include:
Traditional Braces
Traditional braces remain a highly effective and reliable option for correcting a wide range of orthodontic issues, from simple misalignments to complex bite problems. Modern traditional braces are more comfortable and discreet than ever before.
Traditional braces consist of small, metal brackets that are bonded to the front of your teeth. A thin, flexible wire is threaded through these brackets, and small elastic bands or ties hold the wire in place. Periodically, the wire is adjusted or changed, applying gentle, continuous pressure to gradually shift the teeth into proper alignment.
Benefits of traditional braces include:
- Highly effective: Metal braces can correct even severe misalignment issues.
- Reliable, trusted treatments: Braces are a proven method with decades of successful results.
- Precise control: Allows for intricate movements and adjustments.
- Durable treatment: Braces are made from high-grade materials designed to withstand daily wear.
Clear Aligners
For those seeking a more discreet and flexible option for their orthodontic treatment, clear aligners offer a virtually invisible way to straighten the teeth. This popular alternative to traditional braces is ideal for adults and teens who want to improve their smile without the appearance of metal brackets and wires.
Clear orthodontic aligners are custom-made, removable trays crafted from smooth, transparent plastic. You'll receive a series of aligner sets from our team, each designed to make slight adjustments to your teeth. You wear each set for about 1–2 weeks before moving to the next, gradually guiding your teeth into their desired positions.
Benefits of clear orthodontic aligners include:
- Nearly invisible treatment: The clear plastic makes them very discreet.
- Removable: You can take them out to eat, brush, and floss, allowing for easier oral hygiene and no dietary restrictions.
- Comfortable: No metal brackets or wires to irritate your cheeks or gums.
- Predictable results: Advanced 3D imaging allows us to map out your entire treatment plan from start to finish.
