So how do you know if you need braces?
In this video, Diamond Braces orthodontist, Dr. Douglas Palaganas, explains how you might know whether you need braces or not.
There are a lot of different uses for braces, because every mouth and set of teeth are totally unique. For a few lucky people, their teeth simply grow into exactly the right positions without misalignment. For the rest of us – which is most people – braces can help re-adjust teeth into correct positions, leading to straight teeth, a great smile, and better overall health for a lifetime!
Some conditions that require braces are very obvious – for instance, crowding is very noticeable – and some are subtle, like a mild overbite. Rather than diagnosing at home, the best way to determine your specific condition and decide whether or not to get braces is to schedule a consultation with a licensed orthodontist. Your teeth may need adjustments that you didn’t even know about, but which could have huge benefits for your health.
Whether or not your teeth appear crooked, your initial consultation is complimentary at Diamond Braces, so it can’t hurt to get your teeth examined by a licensed orthodontist!
While they are some giveaway signs, the truth is that your best bet for knowing whether you need braces or not is to go to an orthodontist.
Orthodontists study for years – beyond dental school – to master orthodontic care. There are many kinds of conditions that can be treated with braces, and they are able to identify and address each of these with an in-office consultation.
