Orthodontic treatments are a specific branch of dentistry that focuses on correcting teeth and jaw alignment issues. These treatments often involve devices such as braces, retainers, and aligners to gradually shift the teeth into their correct positions. Unlike general dental procedures, which primarily deal with the health and functionality of the teeth and gums (like fillings, root canals, and cleanings), orthodontic treatments aim to improve the appearance and effectiveness of your bite, smile, and overall oral health by addressing structural problems. Essentially, while all orthodontics is dentistry, not all dentistry is orthodontics.
Our team is focused on whole-family orthodontics and providing the best preventive dental care, oral hygiene education, and treatment for families in and around Chapel Hill, Durham, and Hillsborough.
At Clifton & Mauney Orthodontics & Pediatric Dentistry, our team comprises compassionate, customer-focused, and highly skilled orthodontic specialists.
While we take our goal of providing top-tier customer service and expert care very seriously, we also take great strides to create a fun, relaxing, and family-oriented environment for our patients. And we treat patients of all ages, from children to older adults. You’re in good hands at Clifton & Mauney!
Orthodontic care can reduce the risk of future dental problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and even tooth loss. This applies to both children and adults.
One major benefit of orthodontics, especially appreciated by teenagers and adults, is that straightening teeth and aligning the bite significantly enhances the appearance of the smile, which can boost self-esteem and confidence.
Properly aligned teeth facilitate easier biting, chewing, and speaking. This improvement enhances the overall functionality of the mouth and contributes to better nutrition and speech clarity. This benefit can be especially important as we grow older.
Clear aligners like Invisalign and Spark use clear plastic trays to straighten teeth over time. Patients can easily remove them to eat, drink, and brush, which makes these practically-invisible aligners a great fit for patients who want discreet and convenient treatment.
Invisalign Teen can be an attractive alternative to more traditional metal braces. It offers teens with certain orthodontic challenges all the benefits of Invisalign, including convenience, discretion, and an app to keep them on track.
Modern braces have come a long way! Forget the clunky and highly visible appliances of decades past. We offer a variety of braces that can accommodate practically any lifestyle and look.
