Why Seek Care From an Orthodontist?
Orthodontic treatment is an outstanding investment in the overall health and psychological well-being of children and adults. Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain over a long period of time. This may contribute to conditions that cause not only tooth decay but also eventual periodontal (bone and gum) disease and tooth loss.
Other orthodontic problems can contribute to abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, inefficient chewing function, excessive stress on the gum tissue and bone that supports the teeth, or misalignment of the jaw joints, which may result in chronic headaches or pain in the face or neck. When left untreated, many orthodontic problems become worse.

Orthodontic Treatments for Adults
Most of the patients seen at an orthodontist’s office are children and teens. Dr. Izadi also treats adults who are in need of orthodontic care. Some adults have ignored their misaligned or crooked teeth until adulthood, when the consequences become apparent. Crooked and misaligned teeth can actually affect your oral health leading to periodontitis, temporomandibular disorder (TMJ), and a higher chance of suffering from a tooth injury.
The stigma surrounding adults receiving orthodontic treatment has faded over the years. Dr. Izadi has treated many adults and helped them feel better about their smiles. With advanced in dental technology, adult patients can choose to straighten their teeth using many discreet treatment options.
When should my child visit an orthodontist?
Following the recommendations from the American Association of Orthodontists, Dr. Izadi suggest all children be seen by the age of seven for an orthodontic screening. This is when the permanent molars emerge and will impact the bite. Bringing your child in for a screening at this early age will allow us to check for dental problems. Many developing problems can be corrected with early orthodontic treatments.
