Crooked Teeth: Treatment Options for Straighter Smiles

At Bella Smiles in Roslyn, NY Dr. Pop and Dr. Lotardo offer a variety of cosmetic dental treatments to straighten crooked teeth. Straightening crooked teeth will address more than just the aesthetic of your smile, but can improve your overall oral health. Patients with crooked teeth often find it difficult to thoroughly clean certain parts of the teeth effectively, which can lead to common dental problems such as tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease. In advanced cases, crooked teeth may result in TMJ related disorders or other bite problems that may cause a variety of painful and uncomfortable symptoms.

Dr. Pop and Dr. Lotardo take an individualized approach to the treatment of crooked teeth, evaluating the fit and function of the bite to ensure that your result supports a lasting smile.

Are There Alternatives To Braces?

Our highly trained dentists will provide patient-focused, comprehensive care, beginning with a detailed, comprehensive exam of your teeth, mouth, and gums. We will suggest which options may work best for your needs.

Invisalign can be a great solution for both teens and adults who want a discreet, comfortable treatment experience. The span of your treatment usually depends on the condition of your teeth. One of our dentists will walk you through your treatment to ensure everything is running smoothly.
