Orthodontic treatment can benefit people of any age. Teeth that are crooked, crowded or rotated affect the way you look. This treatment not only improves the look of your smile but also your health as well. Straight teeth are easier to clean and less likely to get tooth decay or injury. If you have any of the following, you may be a candidate for orthodontic treatment-

1. Overbite(Upper front teeth lie too far forward over the lower teeth)
2. Underbite (Lower teeth are too far forward or upper teeth are too far back)
3. Crossbite (Upper teeth don't come down slightly in front of the lower teeth when biting together)
4. Openbite (Space between biting surfaces of front/side teeth)
5. Misplaced midline (Center of upper front teeth doesn't line up with the center of lower front teeth)
6. Spacing (Gaps between teeth)
7. Crowding (Too many teeth for the dental ridge to accommodate).
