Patient Education

Oftentimes, patients are referred for a problem, but do not really know why. Below is a brief list of common problems. Bite problems can result from dental problems and skeletal problems. Our orthodontist, Dr.Michele Renick, will evaluate the bite at your consult appointment to make the diagnosis and help you understand what needs to be done to correct it. A “malocclusion” simply means the bite is not correct. Many people have many questions, and this will be an ever-growing page. If you do not see your question or answer below, give us a call or drop us line. No question is ever small, and someone else may have the same question. We’re happy to add your question to the list once we’ve answered it. Educating our patients about their issues is one of our main goals and we also invite you to learn more about various orthodontic topics on our blog.
