Crowded, misaligned, or impacted teeth can lead to many dental health issues beyond just affecting your smile’s appearance. Misalignment can make it difficult to properly clean your teeth, increasing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and tooth wear over time. Crowded teeth can also cause discomfort when eating or speaking, impacting your daily life.
At Harmon Dental Center in Louisville, KY, we understand how essential it is to have a smile that’s not only beautiful but also functional and healthy. We offer orthodontic solutions to help straighten and align teeth for a healthier, more confident smile. With our orthodontic expertise, we’ll create a custom treatment plan to correct misalignment and promote lifelong oral health!
Invisalign is a modern, nearly invisible teeth straightening solution that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually adjust teeth into place. Each aligner is custom-made for your unique smile and fits snugly over your teeth, gently guiding them toward proper alignment. Invisalign is a popular choice for teens and adults who want a discreet orthodontic treatment that doesn’t interfere with their lifestyle.
Since the aligners are removable, you can eat, drink, and brush your teeth without restrictions. With Invisalign at Harmon Dental Center, you can achieve a beautifully straight smile without the appearance of traditional braces.
Traditional braces remain a highly effective option for orthodontic treatment, particularly for patients with more complex alignment issues. Using metal brackets and wires, traditional braces apply continuous pressure to gradually move teeth into the desired position. Braces are especially effective for correcting severe crowding, gaps, and bite issues, making them a versatile option for patients of all ages.
Although they may be more visible than clear braces, today’s braces come in more comfortable, smaller designs than ever. Traditional braces are a reliable and time-tested choice for those seeking comprehensive orthodontic care.
A straight smile is more than just aesthetics; it’s about achieving a healthier mouth and better long-term oral health. Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease. Proper alignment also decreases wear and tear on your teeth, helping prevent chipping or fractures. In addition, orthodontic treatment can alleviate strain on the jaw, reducing the risk of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
At Harmon Dental Center, we believe in making orthodontics accessible to all our patients. That’s why we accept various insurance plans and partner with third-party financing providers to offer affordable payment options, helping you invest in a lifetime of better health and confidence.
