The Next Generation of Braces – ClearCorrect, Lacey, WA

July 22, 2015

ThinkstockPhotos-166780273For years there’s really been only one way to correct gaping, crowding, under or overbite: traditional, metallic braces. Like many common dental procedures, braces were originally considered to be cosmetic as the dental community was in agreement that straightening teeth was an unnecessary vanity, but research shows that a properly aligned bite is easier to care for preventing tooth decay and gum disease. Additionally, uneven pressure placed on teeth by a misaligned bite can damage the teeth that receive more pressure, and can even lead to TMJ disorder. It’s clear to the dental community today that straightening teeth is not just a cosmetic luxury, but what about braces? It seems we’ve been using the same basic treatments since the invention of braces and orthodontia in the 1800s. At Peterson & Cammack Dentistry in Lacey, WA, we offer a more traditional orthodontic option, but we also offer ClearCorrect clear braces to straighten teeth without the “metal mouth” or month after month of dental appointments for tightening and other maintenance. Call to schedule an appointment today. (more…)
