Crooked Teeth
Straighten Your Smile
Crooked teeth may make you feel self-conscious about speaking and smiling. But misaligned teeth don’t only present a cosmetic problem. Crooked, gapped, or misaligned teeth can also be a challenge to maintain. If plaque and tartar are able to collect in hard-to-reach places in your mouth, it makes your teeth more likely to succumb to decay. These teeth can also skew your bite preventing your teeth from meeting harmoniously. Functional issues and severe jaw discomfort can be the result. If you’d like to smile freely and confidently and avoid unnecessary health complications, count on your team at Smyl Manatee Dental Associates to reliably straighten your crooked teeth!

Clear Aligners
There is a clear alternative to highly visible metal brackets and wires. This innovative orthodontics solution works with clear aligners made of smooth, durable plastic instead of metal components. During your treatment, you’ll use a customized series of these aligners to move your teeth into a straight, healthy, and aligned position. Unlike fixed traditional braces, clear aligners are removable for dental hygiene routines and meals. They even allow you to eat a broader selection of foods. Our clear aligner options are Invisalign® and ClearCorrect™.
