Straighter Teeth, Better Oral Health with Clear Aligner Therapy

Whether you’re struggling with crooked or uneven teeth, overlapping teeth, a bad bite, or unsightly gaps between teeth, you can transform your smile’s appearance with clear aligner therapy. Clear aligners straighten your smile with greater comfort and ease. Like traditional braces, the aligners place controlled pressure on your teeth to gradually shift them into proper alignment. In addition to beautiful esthetics, straightening your grin has oral health benefits. At Dynamic Dental in Sacramento, California, we offer clear aligner teeth straightening services to improve your smile’s esthetics and oral health.

Straighten Your Smile, Improve Your Oral Health 

What people look forward to the most from orthodontics is a perfectly aligned smile that’s aesthetically pleasing. And there’s nothing wrong with that! Through clear aligner therapy, Dr. Ricardo Andrade can give you the straight, uniform smile you’ve always wanted. On top of a beautiful smile, you gain oral health benefits to contribute to your smile’s long-term health and beauty.

Here are a few ways clear aligner therapy can boost your oral health:   

• Less Wear on Your Teeth: Orthodontic issues like crooked teeth, malocclusion, uneven spacing, and overcrowding can impair proper chewing. Improper chewing can weaken your teeth or cause undue wear and tear. If your pearly whites clash together when you chew, it can eventually lead to chipped and cracked teeth. Realigning your smile puts all your teeth in their proper position to improve biting and chewing. Your teeth will bear the brunt of chewing evenly to avoid unnecessary wear and tear. Eating will be less taxing and more enjoyable.
• Reduced Risk of Cavities: Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to floss, making removing food particles from between your teeth difficult. Improper flossing can lead to plaque buildup and the risk of cavities. Decay is more likely to occur in areas your toothbrush or floss can’t reach. Straightening your smile will make it much easier to keep your teeth clean, reducing your risk of cavities.
• Better Gum Health: Uneven gaps or spaces between teeth can become breeding grounds for plaque and harmful bacteria, leading to gum disease. Red, swollen, tender gums are early warning signs of gum disease. Advanced gum disease can cause your gums to bleed and recede. Wide gaps in your smile also make it hard for your gums to attach to your teeth properly for support. By correcting spacing issues, clear aligner therapy can improve your gum health and reduce your risk of gum problems in the future. 
• Fewer Issues with TMJ: Clear aligner therapy helps correct bite issues that can trigger TMJ symptoms. TMJ dysfunction can stem from a bad bite, which puts undue tension and stress on jaw muscles and joints. Correcting your bite takes the pressure off your jaw to relieve jaw pain, improve chewing, and keep your temporomandibular joints (TMJs) working smoothly.
