Question 1

Why would I need an orthodontist?

Accepted Answer

Orthodontists, like Dr. Dallam, are experts at fixing misaligned jaws and gaps between teeth. These dental issues not only look bad but also make it easier for teeth to decay.

Question 2

Do you really need orthodontics?

Accepted Answer

Braces or Invisalign can be necessary to fix misaligned or crooked teeth. Straightening your teeth improves your long-term oral health. Plus, improving your appearance has mental health benefits as well.

Question 3

What is the best age to start orthodontics?

Accepted Answer

Normally, the best age to start treatment is when a child has lost their baby teeth, ages 11-14. However, it is never too late to start. Adults commonly opt for braces to look and feel better.

Question 4

Is it too late to straighten my teeth?

Accepted Answer

No. As long as your teeth are mostly healthy, you can straighten your teeth at any age. Most of our patients are adults who want to look better and feel great.

Question 5

What is more effective braces or Invisalign?

Accepted Answer

The truth is it depends on the patient. Braces are better for medium or severely crooked teeth and are also better for kids and teens. Invisalign is better for adults with mildly misaligned teeth that need a clear, comfortable method for straightening teeth.
