Your thinking about getting braces or invisalign? Congratulations! Did you know there are other benefits to orthodontics, other than a straight smile? No doubt, you will feel confident and smile every chance you get, after treatment. Here are three benefits to orthodontics.


1. Gum Disease: 

Out gums are the essential foundation to our teeth. Our gums are also connected to the overall health of our body. Having straight teeth, allows our teeth to be spaced out evenly and prevent tooth decay and cavities by making it easier to brush out teeth, floss and avoid plaque buildup.


2. Improved Speech:

Disproportionately teeth have an impact on our speech and the way we sound out words. Teeth that are not straightened make it harder for someone to pronounce particular sounds, which could cause an effect on our personal or professional life. And just like with the health and aesthetic aspect of having braces, having straightened teeth significantly improves the way you sound out words.


3. Improving Bad Bites:

A bad bite can cause problems with eating, chewing and even speech. All because your teeth do not fit properly together. This also make your jaw tired, which eventually leads to tooth loss. Thanks to orthodontic treatment, it will help to realign these upper and lower parts of your mouth to properly fix any bad bite’s you may have.

The staff and Dr Sperry have been absolutely amazing and very helpful and knowledgeable. I have never been a big fan of dentists because of bad experiences in the past and it is so comforting to be able to come in and be treated with such compassion and care! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

I brought my daughter for a consultation and am very impressed by the service and attention that was given. We took a while to come back and set up treatment because my daughter needed a route canal. They were so patient and the orthodontist is very knowledgable and answered all the questions we had. You can tell he has been doing this for a long time. We know we made a good choice coming here!

We have seen several different orthodontists , and Sperry, Tivis, & Wentz by far have been the best! They have treated all four of our girls. They were quick to take care of my daughter when she was diagnosed with brain cancer, and needed her braces taken off for MRI’s then quickly got her in to Invisalign. We are very pleased with the services provided!
