Orthodontics is the specialty of dentistry focused on diagnosing and treating misalignment issues with teeth and the jaw area. Often times, orthodontics is used to correct problems with crowded or overlapping teeth and it can also help treat TMJ and chronic clenching of the jaw (bruxism) that leads to worn tooth enamel and gum disease. Our Langley orthodontics team is skilled at both dental and dentofacial orthopedic treatment and can help you achieve a straighter smile for a healthier life! Read more gloworthodontics.ca
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children should be evaluated by an orthodontic specialist by age 7. This early screening allows our team to determine whether your child is a candidate for interceptive orthodontics, which can prevent or minimize some of the more serious conditions that may develop later in life, such as malocclusions (misalignment), impacted or extra teeth, jaw growth problems and teeth grinding or clenching. When these problems are treated in childhood, they are typically less expensive and easier to treat than when the permanent teeth come in as an adult.
