There is a thin line between smile and laughter ― Santosh Kalwar

Last Updated on May 28, 2019 by Gio Greenard

Santosh Yalwar believes your facial lips provide a thin line between a smile and laughter, but if you are too embarrassed to smile, then it is simple to undergo treatment from an orthodontist. In today’s modern world, having a perfect smile is easy with an assortment of orthodontic devices such as:

• Wild smiles – designed with bright colors
• Clear – designed to remain nearly invisible
• Lingual – worn on the back surfaces of teeth
• Retainers – worn to keep teeth in correct positions
• Self-ligating – no metal or elastic ties
• Invisalign teen – removable aligners

The only way that you will know the type of braces or aligners needed for your malocclusions is by having a thorough examination with three-dimensional medical images. After the information is collected, specialized computer software determines the type of orthodontia required.

Smile and Laugh without Feeling Embarrassed

You might need traditional orthodontia made with wires and brackets, but there are devices that are more attractive than old-fashioned metal. Alternatively, an orthodontist may tell you that Invisalign are a perfect choice to repair small misalignments. No matter what type of devices you need to wear, it is still possible for you to smile and laugh without feeling self-conscious about wearing aligners or braces.

When a parent is willing to undergo orthodontic treatment, it sets a wonderful example for their children.
