Crooked Teeth

California including San Diego, Encinitas and Carlsbad

Crooked teeth are a very common problem. They are also a frustrating cosmetic dental problem when an adolescent has gone through lengthy orthodontics only to have crooked teeth again as an adult. Fortunately, you can have a beautiful smile once again without repeating that process.

 

Why do I have crooked teeth now?

 

Tooth straightening for teenagers through orthodontics, usually involving braces and/or multiple orthodontic appliances, can be very valuable and worthwhile. Unfortunately many teenagers and their parents are not warned about the future and the crookedness that can return as the body continues to mature, wisdom teeth emerge, or retainers are not worn.

 

There are solutions for correcting crooked teeth as an adult that may last for the rest of your life.

 

Solutions for crooked teeth

 

In some cases Dr. Walsh-Cole will recommend “Instant Orthodontics.” That is the term commonly used for porcelain veneers when their primary purpose is to correct the appearance of crooked teeth. The beauty of this treatment is its ease and versatility. Instant orthodontics does not actually straighten your teeth, so there is no lengthy process involved, but it makes them appear straight and can cover other cosmetic flaws in the same procedure.
