BRACES IN FORT WALTON BEACH
Today, there are numerous types of aligners, braces, and retainers for Fort Walton Beach patients to choose from. Braces are not just for young people; more and more adults are seeking orthodontic care to improve their appearance, self-confidence, and quality of life. At Brodie Bowman Orthodontics located in Fort Walton Beach and Niceville, we work individually with you and your child to determine the best possible treatment approach—one that will leave you with a great-looking smile and healthy teeth and gums.
What Can Braces Treat?
Braces are an effective teeth straightening treatment our Fort Walton Beach orthodontists offer. Braces are designed to address various dental irregularities, including overcrowded teeth, gaps, and misalignments. They can also correct bite issues such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites. By gently applying continuous pressure, braces guide teeth into their proper positions, enhancing oral function and aesthetics.
Why Choose Braces?
- Improved Oral Health: Braces contribute to better oral hygiene by aligning teeth and closing gaps where food particles can accumulate, reducing the risk of decay and gum disease.
- Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal: Orthodontics offers solutions that enhance your smile’s appearance.
- Bite Correction and Improved Functionality: Orthodontic braces and bite correction techniques ensure that your teeth align correctly, improving jaw alignment and making eating and speaking more comfortable.
- Improvement of Crowded Teeth: Addressing crowded teeth can prevent dental complications later in life, such as uneven wear and tear, by providing enough space for each tooth.
Types of Braces
Mini Diamond Braces
Clear Braces
At our Fort Walton Beach office, clear braces are crafted from composite materials that blend seamlessly with the color of your teeth, offering an aesthetic alternative to metal braces. They work in the same way as traditional braces but are less noticeable. While clear braces are more visually appealing, they require diligent care to prevent staining or breakage.
