At Lund Family Dentistry, we believe a straighter smile is about more than just appearance—it’s about improving comfort, bite function, and long-term oral health. Whether you’re an adult considering discreet clear aligners or a parent exploring orthodontic care for your child, we offer personalized solutions to help every patient achieve a healthier, more confident smile.
What Is Orthodontic Treatment?
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry focused on diagnosing, preventing, and correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. Common issues treated with orthodontics include crowded teeth, gaps, bite problems (overbite, underbite, crossbite), and jaw alignment issues.
At Lund Family Dentistry, we provide modern orthodontic options—including clear aligners—that fit comfortably into your lifestyle and deliver noticeable results. Our team carefully evaluates each case to recommend the right treatment plan for your smile goals.
Why Is Orthodontic Care Important?
Straightening your teeth does more than improve how your smile looks—it can also:
- Improve bite function and prevent jaw strain or discomfort
- Reduce risk of tooth decay and gum disease by making teeth easier to clean
- Prevent uneven tooth wear and damage
- Boost self-esteem at any age
- Create better spacing for restorative dental work, if needed
Early orthodontic evaluation (often by age 7) can help identify problems before they worsen, but it’s never too late to straighten your smile.
