Achieve The Smile Of Your Dreams With Montrose Braces

For decades, traditional braces have been a trusted orthodontic system used to correct a variety of bite, misalignment, and crowding issues. At Montrose Dental Group in Chicago, we recommend these braces to not only transform our patients’ smiles but their overall self-confidence, as well!

What are braces?

Braces are dental appliances composed of brackets, arch wires, and elastics that are used to correct a variety of orthodontic issues. The treatment duration varies depending on the severity of the case and can range from several months to a few years.

How do braces work?

Braces apply controlled pressure to the teeth over time, gradually shifting them into their most ideal positions. The brackets are affixed to the teeth using a safe dental adhesive, and the arch wires are threaded through them. The tension created by the arch wires guides the teeth into their proper alignment. Also, elastics may correct the bite by aligning the upper and lower jaws.

What benefits do braces provide?

Montrose Braces in Chicago can offer a remarkable transformation by straightening crooked teeth, closing gaps, and aligning the bite. This leads to an improved smile that enhances overall facial aesthetics. Straight teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of dental issues such as cavities and gum disease. Properly aligned teeth also alleviate excessive wear on tooth surfaces, reducing the likelihood of future dental problems. Misaligned teeth can affect speech patterns and make chewing difficult. Braces can correct these issues, enhancing speech clarity and ensuring efficient mastication.

Who is a good candidate for braces?

This proven orthodontic treatment can benefit a wide variety of patients with varying orthodontic needs. By improving jaw alignment and bite function, braces can correct overbites, underbites, crossbites, misalignments, and more. Montrose Braces are an effective solution for achieving a beautiful smile with long-lasting results.
