Common Orthodontic Issues in Greensboro, NC & How We Treat Them

Making Smiles Inside & Out

  • Robert Stoner Orthodontics
  • August 14, 2024

At Robert Stoner Orthodontics, we understand that every smile is unique and that orthodontic issues can vary widely from person to person. Common issues such as overbites, underbites, and crowding can not only affect the appearance of your smile but also your overall oral health. In this blog, we’ll explore these common orthodontic problems and discuss how our expert team in Greensboro, NC, effectively treats them with orthodontic treatment to help you achieve a healthier, more confident smile.

Overbite

An overbite occurs when the upper front teeth overlap the lower front teeth excessively. While a slight overbite is normal, a more pronounced one can lead to issues such as enamel wear, jaw pain, and even speech difficulties.

How We Treat Overbites

At Robert Stoner Orthodontics, we offer several treatment options to correct overbites, including:

  • Braces: Traditional metal or clear braces can effectively move the teeth into their proper positions.
  • Invisalign: Clear aligners are a discreet option for treating mild to moderate overbites.
  • Orthognathic Surgery: In severe cases, jaw surgery might be necessary to correct the alignment of the jaws.

Underbite

An underbite occurs when the lower front teeth extend beyond the upper front teeth. This can lead to difficulties in chewing, speaking, and can cause excessive wear on the teeth.

How We Treat Underbites

Our treatment plans for underbites include:

  • Braces: Braces can gradually move the lower teeth back and the upper teeth forward for proper alignment.
  • Invisalign: Clear aligners are suitable for mild underbites, offering a nearly invisible solution.
  • Expanders: For younger patients, palatal expanders can widen the upper jaw, helping to correct the bite.
  • Orthognathic Surgery: Severe underbites might require surgery to reposition the jaw.

Crowding

Crowding happens when there isn’t enough space in the jaw for all the teeth to fit normally. This can cause teeth to overlap, twist, or become misaligned, making it difficult to maintain proper oral hygiene.

How We Treat Crowding

To address crowding, we provide:

  • Braces: Braces are highly effective in gradually moving teeth into their correct positions.
  • Invisalign: For mild to moderate cases, clear aligners can be used to discreetly align the teeth.
  • Tooth Extraction: In some cases, removing one or more teeth may be necessary to create space for the remaining teeth to align properly.

At Robert Stoner Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on offering personalized care tailored to each patient’s unique needs. Our experienced team uses the latest orthodontic technologies and treatments to ensure the best possible outcomes.

Are you ready to address your orthodontic concerns and achieve a healthier, more confident smile? At Robert Stoner Orthodontics, we are committed to helping you overcome common orthodontic issues like overbites, underbites, and crowding with expert, personalized care. Contact us today to request your complimentary consultation and take the first step towards a beautifully aligned smile.

Whew! Where do I start?! First of all Dr Stoner is AMAZING!! So friendly so personable and professional. I was in bad shape when I came in 2023 and him and his entire team took care of me from the beginning. I just finished my Angel Aligner treatment and I’m completely speechless. Moved to Vegas and they still made sure my treatment was flawless!! He’s a true perfectionist so just trust the process. I love my smile so much and truly recommend if you want top tier orthodontic treatment. Ashley Lindsay Ali Leslee Meredith omg I can’t name you all!
