Braces and Orthodontics in Beverly Hills
A well-aligned smile can do more than boost your confidence; it supports long-term oral health. If you or your child is dealing with crooked teeth, bite issues, or jaw discomfort, our Beverly Hills practice offers tailored orthodontic care designed for comfort, aesthetics, and lasting results.
Whether you’re a teen exploring options or an adult returning to treatment later in life, our team uses the latest technology and techniques to help you achieve a straighter, healthier smile.
What Is Orthodontic Care?
Orthodontics is a dental specialty that focuses on correcting issues with the alignment of your teeth and jaw. Braces, one of the most common treatment methods, apply gentle pressure over time to shift your teeth into their ideal position.
Today, orthodontic care offers more flexibility than ever before. Besides traditional metal braces, patients can choose from ceramic braces, hidden lingual braces, or clear, removable aligners such as Invisalign. At our Beverly Hills location, we create customized treatment plans to suit your lifestyle, preferences, and clinical needs.
Do You Need Orthodontic Treatment?
Orthodontic problems can appear at any stage of life, and treating them early can prevent more serious complications later. You might benefit from orthodontics if you experience:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth, making it hard to brush or floss effectively
- Gaps or spaces between teeth that affect your bite or smile
- Bite issues, such as an overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Clicking in the jaw, jaw fatigue, or pain while chewing
- Speech difficulties or trouble biting into certain foods
- Visibly misaligned teeth
Even if your teeth appear straight, subtle misalignments can put stress on your teeth and jaw joints over time.
Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment
Correcting misalignment isn't just cosmetic; it can improve your overall oral function and health. Benefits of braces or aligners include:
Healthier Mouth
Greater Confidence
Improved Bite Function
Preventive Care
What to Expect: The Orthodontic Process
We make orthodontic treatment straightforward and personalized from start to finish. Here’s how we guide you through each phase:
- Initial Consultation
Your journey starts with a detailed examination, including digital images and bite analysis. This helps us identify the best treatment plan for your needs. - Choosing the Right Treatment
We’ll review all available options with you, whether you prefer traditional braces, low-visibility ceramic brackets, or clear aligners, and recommend what suits your case best. - Starting Your Treatment
If you opt for braces, our team will carefully place the brackets and wires. If you're going with clear aligners, you’ll receive your first set along with usage guidelines. - Ongoing Adjustments
Regular check-ins ensure everything is progressing smoothly. We’ll make adjustments to your braces or provide new sets of aligners as your teeth move into place. - Completion & Retention
Once treatment is done, we’ll remove your braces or finish your final aligner phase. You’ll be given a custom retainer to maintain your new smile.
