Your Treatment Options With Dr. Grussmark

Traditional Braces

Traditional metal braces are the oldest form of orthodontic treatment, and they’re still the most popular. They’re comprised of metal brackets that fit over your teeth and are connected by a wire. The braces apply pressure to gradually straighten your teeth over a period of several months.

Self-Litigating Braces

Self-litigating braces work like traditional braces, but they use brackets with clips instead of rubber bands to hold the wires together. They’re a popular choice among patients because they require fewer adjustments by Dr. Grussmark. They’re also much less noticeable and easier to keep clean.

Temporary Anchorage Device

If you have a tooth that’s erupted too far into your upper jaw, you may need a temporary anchorage device. These devices are small screws that are occasionally used to apply a different force to allow for the correct treatment result.

Orthognathic Surgery

In some case, Dr. Grussmark will recommend orthognathic surgery to correct the alignment of your jaw. Surgical treatment is often used in conjunction with braces to fully correct your smile.

The Benefits of Orthodontics

Advanced orthodontic care from Dr. Grussmark will give you a gorgeous smile. It also provides a number of important benefits to your health:

  • Protecting You From Oral Diseases — Crooked teeth are difficult to clean, and they can easily build up excessive amounts of plaque and tartar. This can result in cavities, gum disease, and even tooth loss.
  • Correcting Your Jaw Alignment — A misaligned jaw can result in long-term complications, including pain while chewing and TMJ disorder.
  • Reducing Your Overall Health Risks — An improper bite affects the way you chew and digest food, limiting your ability to absorb nutrients. Poorly aligned teeth is a major cause of gum disease, which can result in life-threatening consequences such as heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and more.
