How A Rockville MD Dental Office Helps Straighten Teeth

People who are self conscious about the appearance of their teeth often have a hard time in life. They may not smile at all or cover their mouths to hide the problem. Your Rockville MD dental office works every day to provide patients with new confidence and better oral health. Children can be especially cruel when it comes to taunting peers who have crooked, uneven, or cracked teeth.

A lot of these children dread braces because they think of them as unsightly wires glued onto their teeth. Kids often find this type of corrective measure uncomfortable. They know there will be an extended period when favorite foods like candy, pizza, and gum will be prohibited. Popcorn, taco shells, and pretzels are difficult to manage with braces as well.

If the child ate forbidden food anyway, it often got stuck to the brackets and was difficult and frustrating to remove. In addition, braces, like uneven teeth, could be a source of teasing and bullying by other school children.

Today, people have more options than just traditional braces. Orthodontists can apply aligners that are clear and easy to remove. They are not particularly noticeable when they are worn, and having the ability to take them off means children can eat what they want.

They do require some care - dentists recommend limiting coffee, red wine, and tea, as they can stain the aligners - at which point they are not invisible any more. They also should not be washed with toothpaste, but rather mild soap, as toothpaste can also stain them. However, that is much better than having to give up pizza for one to three years.

You and your children don't have to accept the misfortune of crooked, discolored, or unevenly spaced teeth. You also don't have to spend years with bulky, unsightly braces. Today a wonderful, white smile can be created discreetly and comfortably with the help of modern technology.
