Your Options For Orthodontic Care

Having a straight smile is more than just cosmetic care. A properly aligned smile can help improve your confidence, improve your speech, and even protect your teeth from damage in the future. While traditional orthodontics can be effective, treatment can often take a few years to finish, and metal braces may not be an ideal option for all patients. Luckily, your team at Grand Avenue Dental in Gainesville, TX, offers alternative treatments that can fit your needs.

Accelerated Orthodontics For Faster Treatment

Traditional braces can take around two to three years to complete. While this method is, of course, highly effective, it can be frustrating to wear your brackets, wires, and bands for several months on end. They can be uncomfortable and distract from your smile, but there is a way to speed this up. With our accelerated orthodontics option, you may be able to have a straight smile in just about eight months. That is just a fraction of the time of traditional orthodontics with the same results. To find out if this rapid method meets your needs, schedule a consultation with our team today.

Discreet Lingual Braces

What are your options for braces if you cannot get clear aligners but do not want to wear highly visible metal brackets and wires? In some cases, you may be able to go through treatment with lingual braces. This is a unique treatment because instead of brackets on the front of your pearly whites, we’ll put the brackets behind your teeth. Like traditional orthodontics, this treatment helps gradually shift your teeth into the correct position. Lingual braces may be an excellent choice for you if you are a working professional or have a special occasion approaching during your orthodontic treatment, as the brackets will not interfere with your appearance.

Cosmetic Services To Boost Your Smile

In some cases, your smile is symmetrical but has a few flaws that make it appear uneven. In addition to orthodontic care, we can make a plan for cosmetic treatment to improve the look of your smile. For instance, we can use porcelain veneers to enhance the appearance of uneven or misshapen teeth. Veneers cover the front of your natural tooth and can help make your pearly whites appear larger, brighter, and more even. You may be a suitable candidate for this treatment if you are in good oral health and have minimal damage to your smile. For patients with more significant damage, restorative treatments like dental crowns may be necessary instead.
