Van Nuys Dentist Talks about Getting Braces

February 11, 2008

Hello! I’m writing today to talk to all of those people who are always thinking about getting braces but just haven’t done it yet! There are so many great reasons to consider getting braces. I am Dr. Fields, a cosmetic dentist in Van Nuys, California and I am happy to talk to you all about it! Welcome to my blog!   This week I want to talk with you about getting braces. Whether braces are something you’ve considered before or maybe it’s something new you are learning about, there is a way to get your teeth straight and have a beautiful smile again. You’ll be surprised to learn all the options with getting braces—they aren’t just for teenagers anymore!  My office here in Van Nuys is a full service dental office. We do everything from cleanings to filling and yes—orthodontics. We can take care of your braces and get your teeth straightened out. Why might I need braces?Braces may be an option for just about anyone with dental problems. You might consider getting braces If you have

  • a snaggle tooth
  • space between your teeth
  • crooked teeth
  • teeth growing in crooked
  • overcrowded teeth

 For young people, it is often a problem where their new adult teeth are coming in crooked or crowded other teeth which then become vulnerable. For older people getting braces may be something they always wished they did, but it’s often not till you are an adult that you realize how much your teeth can affect your persona. Don’t forget that having straight teeth isn’t just a cosmetic improvement; it can also improve your health and keep you from having problems with your teeth in the future.  Straight teeth mean:

  • healthy teeth and gums
  • comfortable chewing and speaking
  • a beautiful smile!

 Lots of people think of the old metal braces from years ago, but there are so many new types of braces that are more discreet.  There are so many options to look at such as

  • Traditional metal brackets
  • Invisalign®
  • Ceramic braces
  • Clear braces
