This is all we can hope for our children, and what better way to give them the gift of a beautiful smile than orthodontics. Extractions often go hand in hand with orthodontics, and your trusted team at Parker Dental &amp; Orthodontics can help you with both types of treatment. Here\u2019s some more information about extractions and orthodontics in Vancleave.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Why Do I Need My Teeth Extracted?<\/h3>\n<p>Wisdom teeth, otherwise known as third molars arrive around the ages of 17-22 years old. Because of their location behind your second molars at the very back of your mouth, they can be hard to keep clean and brush properly. This puts you at risk for developing gum disease or tooth decay.<\/p>\n<p>They may also come in at precarious angles that cause your teeth to shift. Some wisdom teeth don\u2019t come in at all, which means they\u2019re impacted, or stuck beneath the gum line. Impacted teeth put you at risk for a dental infection. For these reasons, wisdom teeth are typically removed.<\/p>\n<p>Patients who have severe crowding of their teeth may also need teeth extracted in order to complete orthodontic treatment. Our doctors will evaluate your teeth prior to treatment and let you know if extractions are necessary, and if so, we can complete them here in the comfort of the office you know and trust.<\/p>\n<h3>How Orthodontics Changes Your Smile<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parkerdentalandortho.com\/orthodontic-services.html\">Orthodontics<\/a> is the branch of dentistry that focuses on aligning teeth. Believe it or not, a straight and beautiful smile is not only great for your child\u2019s confidence; it\u2019s also good for their oral health. When teeth are not aligned properly, they can be hard to brush and floss, especially when they overlap. This increases the risk of developing tooth decay or gum disease.<\/p>\n<p>A misaligned bite can cause problems for your jaw joint, resulting in a painful disorder known as TMD, or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webmd.com\/oral-health\/guide\/temporomandibular-disorders-tmd#1\" target=\"_blank\">temporomandibular disorder<\/a>. Many patients experience facial, neck, or shoulder pain as a result of TMD. Frequent headaches, clenching, and grinding can also be symptoms of TMD. Aligning the teeth and bite can help to alleviate issues with TMD.<\/p>\n<h3>Contact Parker Dental &amp; Orthodontics<\/h3>\n<p>Your dentist in Vancleave can help with both orthodontics and teeth extractions.
