Experience a Straighter and Healthier Smile with Dental Braces
When you talk or smile, your teeth are usually the first thing people see. Suppose you have severe bite issues or gaps in your dental structure, it can make you feel embarrassed and affects your self-esteem.
Tooth misalignment is a problem that can have adverse effects on your teeth in many ways. It becomes more difficult to keep clean, leading to bad breath, cavities, and gum disease later down the road.
Dental braces can help with teeth misalignment by gradually straightening them into the right position, making them easier to clean. At Maylands Dental Centre, we offer dental braces as an Orthodontic service to help you get the smile you deserve. Our experienced dental team will create a personalised treatment plan to help you enjoy a beautiful, straighter smile. We also offer a wide range of payment options to make the treatment more convenient and accessible.
Common Reasons Why May Need Dental Braces
- Open Bite: An open bite is a dental issue that is caused by habits such as tongue thrusting, thumb sucking and more. You will notice an embarrassing gap between your top and bottom teeth when you smile, which might make it hard for you to eat or speak.
- Overbite:: When you have an overbite, the upper teeth stick out further than the lower set. The more severe the overbite, the higher chance of dental problems. The chances of damage to the gums and teeth are increased and can even lead to lower lip bleeding, especially in children.
- Crowded Teeth: Crowding is a condition that is caused by not having enough room for all of your teeth. It causes pain and misalignment, making it difficult to talk or smile confidently. Bad breath can develop due to particles stuck in tight spaces between tooth structures, making flossing difficult.
- Underbite: With an underbite, you will notice that your lower teeth overlap with your upper teeth. This can make talking problematic and can cause other complex issues like difficulty in chewing, dental injuries, and even facial pain.
- Tooth Gaps: When your teeth are too far apart, the gaps make it look like you're missing some teeth, and you might also find that it makes smiling and speaking awkward. Because of spacing issues, some people unknowingly grind their teeth. The large spacing can make the teeth appear larger or smaller, and food often gets trapped, leading to dental problems and gum disease.
- Crooked Teeth: Crooked teeth are harder to clean during tooth brushing. This can lead to plaque buildup, tooth decay and gum disease. It can also put too much pressure on the teeth as it is not in its natural position, leading to cracked teeth, jaw strain, chronic headaches, and speech difficulties.

How do dental braces work?
Braces work by exerting constant pressure on teeth and jaws, gradually moving them into the desired position. This is done via the brackets, which are glued to the teeth, and the archwire, which runs through the brackets and applies pressure to the teeth. Over time, the teeth gradually move into place, and the smile is transformed.
It’s worth noting that braces don’t just straighten teeth but can also be used to correct other dental problems. You need to come in for adjustments as recommended by your dentist, so the treatment will be effective.
