Crooked teeth or Malocclusion affects 74% of adults. With crooked teeth, it’s often more difficult to remove plaque and debris from your teeth. If left untreated, there is an increased risk for tooth decay and periodontal disease. This in turn leads to general health problems, like higher risk of heart attack, stroke, and low birth weight for babies of pregnant moms. (Dr. Junee Gardy believes in paying close attention to the whole health of her patients and giving them guidance to the proper health care professional, if needed.)

With advances in orthodontic technology, we now have the ability to straighten teeth in significantly less time. Often times it is also significantly less expensive than traditional orthodontic banding.
