Get professional advice with orthodontics in Berkshire
Every child at around the age of 7 or so can benefit from a consultation for orthodontics in Berkshire to ensure that their bite and teeth are properly aligned so that they will not experience any pain or discomfort should they be misaligned.
This consultation may happen progressively over the next few years, as professional orthodontics in Berkshire are able to determine the growth of the mouth and the alignment of the teeth and jaw.
This is so important for a child’s health and wellbeing, as having an incorrect bite can cause eating issues, growth problems, speech defects, as well as impact their self-esteem and confidence. This is not only because of the aforementioned issues, but also because misaligned teeth can impact on how they feel about themselves.
Once most or all of their adult teeth have come through, then they can begin to embark on their journey to correct these misalignments with orthodontics in Berkshire.
The treatment options are varied and it will be up to the dentist, the child and their parent what option is believed to be the best course of action. There are many different models available today of teeth straightening devices which can boost self-confidence, shorten treatment times and allow a person to express themselves.
We hope that the teeth straightening journey is a pleasant one and will do everything we can to make this so. What needs to happen is constant and honest communication between every party so that we can address issues that can come up and work through any setbacks or problems together, to allow the procedure to continue on as smoothly as possible.
What are some of the devices available?
Depending on the complexity of the dental situation, we can offer fixed or removable devices to realign a smile. Traditional fixed devices are often used for more complex cases, as they allow us more control over the movements that we want teeth to make. However, with advances in technology, we are not restricted to this and can rely on very advanced digital scanning technology and software to pinpoint the movement of teeth for optimal movement.
Our goal is to offer you the best results in the shortest amount of time in the most comfortable way possible. As every one of our patients differ, we know that what is best for one person may not be for another and that is why we need to talk through the options so that you can determine what is the most suitable treatment for yourself or your child.
Everyone deserves to have a healthy, strong and beautiful smile. We are thankful that in this modern age, we can provide this to our patients and to their children. We urge you to take advantage of this and to speak with one of our dentists as quickly as possible if you have any concerns regarding your or your child’s bite, or the alignment of teeth.
The quicker that we can act, the faster the solutions will be and the longer you have to enjoy that stronger and healthier smile.
