Braces & Invisalign | Gallatin
Modern Orthodontic Care
At Shine Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we believe that Gallatin shouldn’t have to choose between a practice that cares and the leading treatments in the field.
Dr. Mike and the team give you the happy, healthy smile you deserve with the most cutting-edge techniques in the industry.
Getting a
Beautiful Smile
Orthodontic issues can affect anyone, young or old. Very few people are born with perfect teeth. A "bad bite," also known as malocclusion, can make it hard to chew, keep your teeth clean, and even speak clearly. Plus, it can affect the way you look.
Bad bites can happen for various reasons, from family traits to habits like thumb-sucking, dental problems, or accidents.
At Shine Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, Dr. Mike uses advanced technology to fix a range of orthodontic problems, including:
- Closing gaps between teeth
- Straightening crowded teeth
- Fixing overbites and underbites
- Sorting out crossbites
- Aligning protruding teeth
- Resolving impacted teeth
Braces & More
Most folks in Gallatin choose traditional metal braces to improve their smiles, and they're a popular choice for a good reason. But guess what? You've got options!
After your first free checkup with Dr. Mike, he'll chat with you about which treatment suits you best based on your needs and how you want your smile to look.
Fixed or Removable? You Decide
At Shine Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we want you to understand your treatment. First, let's talk about the difference between fixed and removable appliances.
Fixed appliances, like braces, stay on your teeth until your treatment is done. But if you go for a removable appliance, like Invisalign, you can take it out when needed.
We use Invisalign for less complex issues, while fixed appliances work great for more comprehensive treatment.
Mouth Guards
Custom-fit mouth guards from Shine Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics offer protection for your child's teeth and jaw, especially during contact sports. These appliances are designed to fit snugly over your child’s teeth, providing a shield against dental injuries.
Apart from sports mouth guards, we also provide night guards for children who grind their teeth during sleep. Nightguards offer cushioning and protection, preventing tooth damage and reducing the risk of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Regular use of mouth guards is an essential step in preserving your child's oral health and natural teeth.
