The Health Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment can do more than just enhance the aesthetics of your smile—it can also play a vital role in your overall health. At Innovative Dental of Springfield, we offer advanced solutions like traditional braces and Accelerated Invisalign® to align your teeth and enhance your well-being.

Misaligned teeth can make brushing and flossing effectively more difficult, as crowded or crooked teeth may result in hard-to-reach areas where bacteria and food particles gather. This can increase the risk of developing cavities, gum disease, and other oral health problems. Straighter, more evenly spaced teeth are easier to clean, helping you maintain a healthier mouth and reducing your chances of long-term dental issues.

Beyond oral health, properly aligned teeth can also alleviate issues like jaw pain, headaches, and even difficulty speaking. When your bite is properly aligned, it reduces strain on the jaw joints and muscles, promoting improved function and comfort.

For those concerned about treatment time, Accelerated Invisalign® can significantly shorten the duration of orthodontic care. These nearly invisible aligners gently move teeth into position faster than traditional options, making it a great choice for busy lifestyles. Some patients are able to achieve results in as little as 2-3 months with this advanced technique. 

At Innovative Dental, we believe everyone deserves a healthy, beautiful smile. Whether you choose traditional braces or Invisalign®, our team can help guide you through the process to achieve optimal results. Don’t let tooth and bite misalignment hold you back—start your journey to improved health and confidence today!
