What Is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is dental care that focuses on the alignment of your teeth. This includes the bone that supports them, as well as your gums. At The Smile Designer of Spring, we offer a variety of straightening options to help improve both the health and appearance of your teeth.

If you are struggling with a bite problem, Dr. Idriss can employ special orthodontic appliances that work to gradually improve your bite. In some cases, crowded teeth can cause spacing issues. Dr. Idriss can safely extract the tooth or teeth that is causing the crowding.

Innovative Teeth Straightening

One of our most popular straightening options in Invisalign®. Unlike traditional braces, there are no wires or metal. Instead, clear plastic aligners gradually straighten your teeth over a period of 12 to 18 months!

This comfortable orthodontic option is not only easier to wear, but it’s virtually invisible, too. Now you can straighten your teeth with hardly anyone noticing! Invisalign aligners are made just for you.

A mold is taken of your teeth so that your aligners fit you perfectly. Several sets are created, with each set worn for two weeks. So effective is Invisalign that many of our patients notice an improvement in their teeth after only two weeks of treatment.

If you are ready to transform your smile, please call The Smile Designer of Spring, TX, today! We look forward to helping you achieve the smile of your dreams.

FAQs

What does an orthodontic do?

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that specializes in oral health. A typical orthodontic treatment involves straightening teeth by tooth straightening brackets and banding. The goal is to improve your smile, increase dental health and improve speech.

Is orthodontics same as dentist?

Orthodontics and dentists are different professions, but they can work together when needed. Orthodontists specialize in the diagnosis, planning, fitting and adjusting of orthodontic appliances to improve the facial structure. Dentists specialize in cosmetic and restorative dentistry procedures on teeth and gums.

Why should I get orthodontic treatment?

Orthodontic treatment is highly recommended. A properly aligned mouth leads to better teeth and gum health, helps improve eating habits and can prevent further problems such as crooked teeth forming during the sleep phase.

When should orthodontic treatment be started?

The best time to start orthodontic treatment is around 11 years old. However, if the smile is not right, you should ask your orthodontist about frequent and regular checkups.

How can I recognize a potential bite problem?

The most obvious way to recognize a potential bite problem is through the inspection of teeth. If you notice any abnormality on a tooth, or if there is blood or pus under the gums, this could indicate that your pet has been bitten.
