5 Reasons to Visit an Orthodontist

By Stonehaven Dental & Orthodontics | August 1, 2022

Braces are pretty incredible! They can improve our patients’ lives in so many ways. Many people think of braces as just a way to make their teeth straighter, but they do so much more! Here are 5 reasons to visit an orthodontist.

1. Confidence

One of the most common reasons people visit an orthodontist is because they want to feel more confident about their smile. We love seeing our patients’ confidence blossom as they progress through and ultimately complete their orthodontic treatment.

2. Ease

Another great reason to visit an orthodontist is that straightening your smile can make it easier to keep your teeth clean, healthy, and bright. It can be hard to brush and floss around and between teeth that are crooked or overlapping. Many of our patients are excited to experience how easy it is to practice good dental hygiene as their teeth come into proper alignment.

3. Comfort

Crooked or overlapping teeth or a misaligned bite can make eating your favorite foods uncomfortable — not to mention how it feels when food gets caught in between your teeth! It can be tough to imagine how different your smile could feel if your teeth were in alignment. All we can say to describe it is that our patients can’t seem to stop smiling!

4. Health

Braces don’t just affect the look of your smile; they can also greatly affect the health of your smile. When your teeth are in proper alignment, it makes it easier to care for them, which often results in a lower risk for developing cavities and gum disease. Orthodontic treatment isn’t just about making your smile look good; it’s also about helping to make your smile healthy for a lifetime.

5. Goals

One of the top reasons to visit an orthodontist is often because our patients have certain goals in mind. Do you have a picture in your mind of how you imagine your smile could look? We’re here to help you achieve that smile. If that’s you, call us to schedule a consultation so we can listen to your goals and make a treatment plan to help you achieve them.

Sammy, Connor, the front desk staff, Dental Hygenist and especially Dr. Town are amazing! It’s great to see the same faces everyone I get a cleaning! Sammy makes the experience comfortable and welcome. Connor may be quiet but he always does a great job! The dental hygienist always remembers me and my kids. Sorry I cant remember her name but she knows who I am and that’s what matters:) Thankful for this staff and the great care they give to my family!

I love it here. I have never seen a dental office give flowers to first timers. Everyone was so welcome if. In pain but you guys still made me smile. I told my daughter she need to come there. I love how you guys work with options of payment. Again thanks for making me smile in pain.

We’ve always had a good experience at Stonehaven. The women at the front desk are always cheerful and helpful. I love the hygienists, they always make my children and I feel comfortable and informed. I have pretty high dental anxiety and they’ve never tried to minimize my fears- but they listen to me, and help me feel as comfortable as possible. The dentists and orthodontists have been great! No issues at all. (I just wish my daughter was better at flossing, but we’re working on that!)
