If you are searching for a way to straighten your smile, but you’d rather not wait a year or more, meet accelerated orthodontics, the newest concept in orthodontic treatment. Accelerated orthodontics is pretty much just what it sounds like — a way to achieve straightened teeth in a short amount of time. The great thing is, you don’t have to compromise your smile results. With the right cosmetic dentist, you can get the look you want in a shortened time frame, at a reasonable cost.
The Benefits of Straightening
The purpose of seeking out ways to straighten your teeth should go far beyond simply having a beautiful smile. Straightening your teeth helps create a balanced and healthy bite by encouraging proper jaw alignment. Not only that, but straight teeth are easier to clean, making it harder for bacteria to hide. Teeth that are crooked or crowded tend to have more problems with decay and damage. Crooked teeth on the top may not be lining up with their counterparts on the bottom, and vice-versa. This can cause a number of problems from accelerated tooth wear to chewing or speaking problems to TMJ and neuromuscular problems . In many cases, those with crooked teeth may actually end up spending far more to treat dental problems related to their crooked teeth than they would have spent to straighten them!
What are some signs that braces may be necessary?
You may be a good candidate for accelerated orthodontics if:
• You have several crooked teeth
• You experience overcrowding
• You have a prominent overbite or underbite
• Your upper and lower teeth that do not meet
• Your front upper and lower teeth are not in alignment
• You have difficulty chewing or speech problems
• You have uneven or rapid enamel wear
• Have gaps in teeth
The Fast Track
Accelerated orthodontics can offer the benefits of a comprehensive, traditional braces treatment without the wait. This means fewer office visits and quicker visible results. Traditional braces, the wait can be anywhere from one to three years. By going the accelerated route, you can see results in three to eight months. This method can be used to address all of the problems listed above using modern, safe orthodontic techniques. Patients with minor straightening needs may benefit from porcelain veneers, dental bonding, tooth contouring, or porcelain crowns as alternatives to orthodontic treatment.
Talk to your dentist to learn more about accelerated orthodontics.
