Clear Dental Braces Dentist Bellevue WA

Prevention Now…or Braces Later
Preventive Dentistry Bellevue WA
Many of us remember the embarrassment and discomfort of wearing braces as a child. In some cases, this is necessary in order to correct serious malocclusions (or bite disorders). However, in many instances, early treatment by a qualified and knowledgeable dentist can minimize the extent of orthodontics or very possibly eliminate the need altogether!

Younger children have the advantage of growth on their side, and their teeth and bones are more pliable than those of adults. Realizing a child has a malocclusion at an early age can be very beneficial to how the permanent teeth come together. The earlier the detection, the more planning and prevention we can offer to your child.

Using the latest in modern techniques, the staff at Smiles of Bellevue can now make braces more comfortable and attractive than ever. It used to be that a child or adult might spend 3 - 5 years in treatment. It’s not that way any more! The time needed for treatment will vary from person to person but usually can be completed in 6 - 24 months or less.
