Give your children the gift of a beautiful smile!

The magic of orthodontic treatment is a confident, broad, beautiful and healthy smile. Proper alignment of teeth dictates how they work together and affects the way you look and smile. Only orthodontic treatment can move teeth into the right position.

Orthodontic treatment may focus on improving poor positioning of teeth and bite relation or, even influence the way the face shapes and forms over time. Orthodontic treatment can also be carried out for purely cosmetic reasons to improve the general appearance of a person's smile and face.

Braces will correct your bite and straighten your teeth as well. The length of time you wear your braces will depend on why and when you are getting them.

Many children have orthodontic problems, which develop at a young age. Although most orthodontic problems are best treated with traditional braces, orthodontic expanders may be necessary when braces alone are not adequate to fully correct the orthodontic problem. An orthodontic expander is a device used to widen the upper arch or roof of the mouth. Although the arch is usually expanded in 15-20 days, the appliance will remain in place for a longer period, usually six months or so, while new bone generates in the expanded arch.

Widening the mouth's palate allows the upper teeth to line up properly, giving you child a better bite. Additionally, just as a high palate and narrow arch restrict breathing passages, widening the palate, widens air passages, enabling your child to breathe more easily through the nose.
