Our Baytown office provides safe and effective teeth whitening treatments tailored to your needs. Whether you're prepping for a special event or want to boost your daily confidence, our whitening procedures ensure you leave with a noticeably brighter and more vibrant smile.
Trust us to add that extra sparkle to your grin!
Brighten Your Smile
While it's uncommon for anyone to be born with a flawless set of teeth, orthodontic challenges can arise for children, teens, and adults alike.
Issues like malocclusion, commonly known as a "bad bite," can interfere with everyday activities. Chewing and maintaining oral hygiene might feel more complicated. Plus, bad bites can affect your speech and even impact your appearance.
Such dental misalignments can be inherited or result from habits like thumb-sucking, dental diseases, inadequate dental care, accidents, congenital anomalies, or other health conditions.
Dr. Johnston combines the latest technology with her expertise in teeth alignment. At Johnston Orthodontics, we adeptly address a variety of dental concerns, including:
- Spaces between teeth
- Overcrowded teeth
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Crossbites
- Teeth that jut out
- Impacted teeth
Your Braces Options
At Johnston Orthodontics, you may opt for the tried-and-true traditional metal braces to achieve your desired smile. While metal braces remain a popular choice in Baytown, there are other avenues to explore.
Following your initial free consultation, Dr. Johnston will discuss the best treatment for your specific needs and aspirations for your smile.
Fixed Appliances Vs. Removable Appliances
At Johnston Orthodontics, we want to keep you well-informed about your treatment options. Knowledge is the foundation for your successful orthodontic journey.
For our Baytown community, it's helpful to grasp the distinction between fixed and removable appliances. Dr. Johnston attaches fixed appliances, such as braces, directly to your teeth, where they remain until the end of your treatment.
On the other hand, removable appliances like the Invisalign aligner system offer you flexibility. While you wear them throughout the day, you can remove the trays as needed.
Beyond these fundamental differences, Johnston Orthodontics recommends Invisalign aligners for milder orthodontic concerns. For more complex or severe cases, Dr. Johnston leans towards the precision and effectiveness of fixed appliances.
