Intercepting Orthodontic Problems
Offering Early Orthodontic Treatment in Peoria, AZ
Interceptive Treatment: The Specialist's Role
Intercepting developing orthodontic problems is what sets an orthodontic specialist apart from other practitioners in the dental field. You know that orthodontists straighten teeth, but what about developing problems when some permanent teeth AND primary (baby) teeth are present at the same time?
What problems need to be evaluated...early ??
- Primary (baby) teeth staying in too long preventing eruption of permanent teeth
- Premature loss of primary teeth causing other teeth to shift
- Upper teeth crossed over behind lower teeth (cross-bite)
- Skeletal imbalances of the face and jaws (Under-bite/Over-bite)
- Unusual spacing between teeth
- Teeth impacted in the jaw bone
First phase Interceptive Orthodontics coordinate the sizes, forms, and positions of the jaws. Successful first phase treatment greatly simplifies second phase orthodontic correction.
Benefits of Early Intereceptive Orthodontics:
- Alignment of the teeth and jaws reduces the need for permanent tooth extractions
- The teeth function (chew) their best, wear less, are the most stable, and have the best assurance of lasting a lifetime
- A beautiful, broad smile and balanced facial appearance is achieved
Dr. Davis & Womack's practice has been in the forefront of Interceptive Orthodontics since it started in the mid 1970's. Multi-phased combination Interceptive and orthodontic corrections of developing malocclusions provide optimum form and function. When the skeletal pattern is normal and the teeth well aligned, the face and smile look their very best.
In short, Interceptive Orthodontics and Orthodontic Specialists make your smile more than just a smile!
