Orthodontics is defined as the treatment of improper bites and crooked teeth (especially of alignment and occlusion) with the use of braces. Most people seeking to straighten their teeth have been self-conscious about their smile. Others are experiencing the consequences of a poor bite. Regardless of their reasons, having braces will usually improve the way they look and feel. When your treatment is complete, you will have the smile you have dreamed of as well as the confidence to show it off.
