Enjoy the Benefits of Orthodontic Appliances

Straight, aligned teeth require intervention. Most of the time, this intervention can be done with personalized appliances. While many people think of braces or retainers, we have other options for orthodontic appliances at Salt City Orthodontics.

Some are designed to help keep your tongue in position and away from pushing on your teeth. Others can be used to help children curb a thumb-sucking habit. In general, these devices help prevent crooked teeth, misalignment, and bite issues.

With our team of board-certified orthodontists, we offer personalized treatment plans to address your unique needs. We invite you to reach out to us to learn more about how our orthodontic appliances can benefit you. Salt City Orthodontics is here to help!

Recognizing the Need for Orthodontic Devices

Understanding when it's time to seek professional orthodontic care is crucial. Here are some signs that you might need one of our orthodontic devices:

• Persistent thumb-sucking habit beyond early childhood
• Noticeable changes in the alignment or spacing of your child's teeth
• Difficulty in chewing or biting
• Speech difficulties that may be related to dental issues

If you notice any of these signs, it's time to consult with a professional. At Salt City Orthodontics, we can provide a complimentary consultation. Get in touch with us today!

Understanding Thumb-Sucking Appliances

For babies and toddlers, thumb-sucking can be normal. However, if the habit persists, it can lead to problems with your child's teeth. Fortunately, at Salt City Orthodontics, we can help. We can use thumb-sucking appliances to curb the habit and protect your child's teeth.

These appliances are not designed to move the teeth. Instead, they guide the thumb into a safer position, essentially protecting the teeth while the child continues to suck. These devices can be worn during the day, and they are typically removed during sleep. Over time, they have been shown to deter habitual thumb-sucking and prevent dental issues associated with it.
