ORTHODONTICS IN BATON ROUGE - SAFE TREATMENTS FOR EVERY PATIENT

Here at Tiger Smile Family Dentistry, we understand how inconvenient it can be to schedule multiple visits between providers. That’s why our dentists are trained to offer certain orthodontic services in addition to general dentistry.

Our office offers both Invisalign and Six-Month Smiles orthodontic services in Baton Rouge. Invisalign uses clear retainers that engage and move teeth; they are changed out every two weeks to guide teeth into proper alignment. Six-Month Smiles are clear brackets and wires that are bonded to the teeth and adjusted every four weeks.

What is Orthodontics?

Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that corrects jaws and teeth that are not properly aligned. Crooked or misaligned teeth are hard to clean and vulnerable to periodontal diseases and tooth decay. This will also lead to TMJ disorders and headaches caused from stress in the chewing muscles.

Only a dentist can determine if you need orthodontic treatments. Through X-rays, a clinical exam, and making plaster molds of your teeth, your dentist can gain a deep understanding of your dental health and make the call. Some signs you may need orthodontic services include the following:

• Underbite: Your lower teeth are too far forward, or your upper teeth are too far back
• Open bite: The space between your side and front teeth bite together
• Overbite: Also known as “buck teeth”, this occurs when your upper front teeth stick out over the lower teeth
• Crossbite: When the upper teeth don’t come down in front of the lower teeth when biting together
• Spacing: The gaps between the teeth are the results of missing teeth
• Crowding: When there are too many teeth for the dental bridge to accommodate
• Misplaced midline: The center of your upper front teeth doesn’t align with the center of your lower front teeth

Let our experienced dental team improve your teeth’s cosmetic appearance, prevent gum disease, and help correct your bite through these simple services.

The Advantage of Braces in Baton Rouge

Don’t you dare hide that smile! If you come to Tiger Smile Family Dentistry in Baton Rouge for your braces, our team will fit you with a custom-tailored set of clear, removable braces. With these braces, you can expect cosmetic improvement and bite correction; they also prevent or reduce gum disease! Our team comes equipped with the latest orthodontic techniques to customize your experience based on your dental needs.

Braces offer cosmetic improvement, close open spaces to prevent issue with food impaction, create spaces for future restoration procedures, prevent and/or reduce gum disease, and correct the bite. Here at Tiger Smile Family Dentistry, we take advantage of the latest orthodontic technologies and have incorporated new ways to make the procedure easier and more effective.

Braces aren’t just for adults! Often, children need them, too. If you suspect your child may need braces, give us a call! We’ll be happy to assist you in determining whether or not braces are a good step for your child’s dental health.

Customizing Your Care

Here in our dental care facility in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, we have invested in computer-aided technologies such as CAD/CAM that help our dentists plan the proper course of treatment for each patient. No two patients are alike, and this equipment helps us tailor your treatments to meet your specific needs. These technologies also help us streamline the length of the patients’ treatment time.
When you’re ready to take the plunge, making an appointment for an initial consultation here at Tiger Smile Family Dentistry is the first step to teeth alignment and a better smile. During the consultation, our dentist will conduct an interview to learn about your dental history and will thoroughly examine your mouth to assess its current condition.
