Understanding Rotated Teeth
Rotated teeth, a common dental condition where teeth turn or twist out of their normal alignment, can be more than just an aesthetic concern. It can lead to difficulties in cleaning, uneven wear, and even impact overall oral health.
– More Than Aesthetics: Rotated teeth aren’t just about looks; they can complicate cleaning, cause uneven wear, and affect overall oral health.
At Lakefront Family Dentistry, under the expert guidance of Dr. Mark Phillipe and Dr. Derek Hauser, a modern and effective solution is offered to patients facing this challenge: Invisalign.
This clear aligner system not only addresses the functional issues associated with rotated teeth but also offers a cosmetic advantage over traditional orthodontic methods.
