How to Choose an Orthodontist The first step to achieving a perfect smile is finding an orthodontist, but how do you know who's best for your case? 6 Signs You Need Braces Afraid to smile or laugh Teeth grinding & clenching Problems chewing Bad breath because crooked teeth are difficult to clean Speech difficulties due to a bad bite Malocclusion: the misalignment of the teeth in the upper and lower jaws If these negatively affect your self-esteem and daily activities, it's probably time to consult an orthodontist. Determine Which Solution is Best for You Traditional Metal Braces are cost-effective, but highly visible. Invisalign is a great option if you are seeking invisible braces for certain cases.
