4 Health Benefits of Straight Teeth<\/span><\/h2>\n

Because your teeth don\u2019t exist in a vacuum, what goes on in your mouth can significantly affect your overall health. We\u2019ve listed the top 4 health benefits of braces below! <\/span><\/p>\n

#1: Improved Oral Hygiene<\/span><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s not easy to work dental floss between crowded teeth — you may just feel like you\u2019re damaging your fingers or gum tissue in the process. When your teeth are side by side like they should be, it\u2019s easier to gently work the floss around them. Flossing is an integral aspect of oral hygiene, as it helps to prevent cavities and gum disease. And, considering the significant health effects of gum disease (like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and others), that can have a big impact on your overall health. <\/span><\/p>\n

#2: Better Jaw Health<\/span><\/h3>\n

The TMJ is the joint that helps you eat and speak with ease. When your upper and lower jaw do not fit together properly, your TMJ receives undue pressure every time you open and close your mouth. Over time, it can lead to the painful condition known as TMD (temporomandibular dysfunction). TMD is associated with jaw clicking, popping, the sensation of lock jaw, and other bothersome side effects. <\/span><\/p>\n

#3: Stop Teeth Grinding<\/span><\/h3>\n

When your teeth do not line up the way they should, you are also more likely to grind them at night. The condition known as bruxism can lead to weak and worn tooth enamel, an increased risk of cavities, and jaw pain. <\/span><\/p>\n

#4: Self Confidence<\/span><\/h3>\n

Here\u2019s where the aesthetics come into play. When your smile looks beautiful, you won\u2019t want want to hide it — and the health benefits of smiling are significant! From boosting endorphins to reducing stress, flashing those pearly whites just makes you feel better. And that\u2019s something you can\u2019t argue with. <\/span><\/p>\n

Invisalign: A Clear Solution<\/span><\/h2>\n

Now that you know about the health benefits of straight teeth, you may be wondering what your options are for aligning your bite. Invisalign is a wonderful option for older teens and adults — it\u2019s clear braces that you can remove to eat and drink and clean your teeth with ease. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Invisalign treatment is composed of a series of aligners made out of clear, sturdy plastic. Each aligner is customized to fit your teeth as the treatment progresses. Advance to the next one in the series after one to two weeks and, after about a year on average, you will be smiling with full confidence (and health)! <\/span><\/p>\n
