At Airdrie 8th Street Dental, we provide orthodontic dentistry services to help address concerns with the alignment, function, and overall health of your smile. Whether you’re exploring braces, dealing with a troublesome wisdom tooth, or looking for help with sleep apnea, our team will take the time to understand your concerns and recommend care based on your individual needs.
We know starting any new dental treatment can bring questions. That’s why we focus on making orthodontic dentistry comfortable, informative, and personalized for our Airdrie patients from your first consultation onward.
Our team provides several services to help patients care for their smiles and address specific dental concerns:
Braces can help gradually straighten crowded, crooked, or misaligned teeth while improving how your bite fits together. We’ll examine your teeth and discuss your treatment options so you understand what to expect before getting started.
When wisdom teeth don’t have enough room to emerge properly, they may become impacted or grow at an angle. This can contribute to pain, infection, crowding, and problems with neighbouring teeth. We can assess your wisdom teeth and determine whether extraction may be recommended.
Sometimes a tooth is too damaged, decayed, or problematic to preserve. When extraction is the best option, our team will explain the procedure, answer your questions, and prioritize your comfort throughout your visit.
Sleep apnea can interrupt your breathing during sleep and leave you feeling tired throughout the day. Depending on your needs, dental care may help manage sleep apnea. Our team can assess your concerns and discuss suitable treatment options or next steps.
Your visit begins with a discussion of your concerns and what you’d like to achieve with your smile. Our team will carefully examine your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health, using dental imaging when necessary to get a clearer picture of your needs.
If treatment is recommended, we’ll explain our findings in easy-to-understand terms and walk you through the available options. Whether you’re considering braces or another orthodontic dentistry service, we want you to feel comfortable asking questions and confident about your care before moving forward.
Choosing dental care is about finding a team you feel comfortable with. At Airdrie 8th Street Dental, we provide personalized care in a friendly, welcoming environment and take the time to understand each patient’s individual needs.
When you visit us for orthodontic dentistry services, you can expect clear explanations, modern dental technology, personalized treatment recommendations, and a team that prioritizes your comfort throughout your care. From your initial assessment through treatment and follow-up visits, we’re here to help make the experience as straightforward and comfortable as possible.
Crooked or crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, or problems with how your bite comes together can all be reasons to consider braces. An examination allows us to assess your teeth and determine whether braces may be an appropriate option for your smile.
No. Adults may also be candidates for braces. The right treatment depends on factors such as your oral health, tooth alignment, bite, and individual goals, not age alone.
Treatment time varies from patient to patient depending on the amount of movement required and the complexity of your bite. After examining your smile, our team can give you a better idea of what your individual treatment timeline may look like.
Yes! Regular dental cleanings and check-ups remain important throughout orthodontic treatment. Brackets and wires can create extra spaces for food and plaque to collect, so professional cleanings, combined with careful brushing and flossing at home, can help keep your teeth and gums healthy.
