What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a unique field within dentistry that focuses on correcting the position of your teeth and jaw. If your teeth are crooked, overcrowded, or your jaw doesn’t align properly, orthodontics is there to help. The ultimate goal is not just about making your smile look great but also ensuring your teeth and jaw are healthy and function properly for things like eating and speaking. This is achieved through the use of tools like braces, aligners, and sometimes other special dental appliances.

Braces

Braces are tools used by orthodontists to help move your teeth and align your jaw just right. Made of small brackets and wires, braces apply gentle pressure to your teeth to slowly guide them into the perfect position for a straight and healthy smile.
Children's Braces

Children’s Braces

Sometimes, even when you’re a kid, your teeth might not grow in straight or there could be too many teeth in a small space. That’s where child braces come in. These braces are specially designed for younger mouths, helping guide the teeth into the right spot as they grow. It’s kind of like giving your teeth a roadmap to where they need to go! And the best part? You get to pick cool colors for your braces bands!
Adolescent Braces

Adolescent Braces

Being a teenager is all about change, and sometimes that includes getting braces. It’s pretty common, and it helps to align your teeth just right, especially after all of your permanent teeth have come in. The adolescent braces work to straighten things out, ensuring you’ve got a perfect smile for all those selfies. They might feel a bit weird at first, but you’ll quickly get used to them, and the end result is worth it!
Adult Braces

Adult Braces

Who says braces are only for kids or teenagers? Adults can need them too! Maybe you didn’t get braces when you were younger, or your teeth have moved over time. Whatever the reason, adult braces are here to help. They work pretty much the same way as other braces, guiding your teeth into the best position for a healthy and great-looking smile. Plus, there is no embarrassment with clear or ceramic braces.

Invisalign

Invisalign Treatment by Atlantic Dental Group

Invisalign is an excellent solution for re-aligning teeth — without the need for braces. Adjusted every two weeks, individually-made clear plastic aligners move the teeth into the correct position. Final result? A beautiful smile. The best part? Most cases can be treated in half the time required with traditional braces.
