What is the benefit of Orthodontics?
You already know that braces straighten teeth. But what you might not know is that a beautiful smile is just one of the benefits orthodontics has to offer. Bringing teeth, lips and jaws into proper alignment not only produces a great smile, but a healthy one. Straight teeth simply function better and are easier to clean. Another benefit is the increased confidence and self-esteem that a healthy smile provides. This psychological benefit can be a significant factor in the decision to undergo treatment, and is often listed as a patient’s top treatment goal. A beautiful smile is a pleasure to own and a pleasure to see. An attractive smile is just the start. Improved oral health and general well-being are important treatment goals as well.
