Orthodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing, preventing, and treating irregularities in the teeth and jaws, including misaligned teeth, bite problems, and jaw misalignment. Using appliances like braces or clear aligners, our orthodontic providers improve both the appearance and the function of your smile. Properly aligned teeth make it easier to chew, speak, and maintain good oral hygiene.
A straight smile boosts your self-esteem, making you more comfortable in social situations and improving your overall outlook on life.
Proper alignment reduces abnormal jaw movements during chewing, which minimizes your risk of developing a TMJ disorder later in life.
Straight teeth are easier to clean, improving plaque control and reducing your risk of cavities, gum disease, and constant bad breath.
Even alignment prevents excessive wear on your tooth enamel, preserving both your natural teeth and the dental work you already have.

At Gardena Dental Group, your comfort and satisfaction are our priorities. Our expert orthodontic providers in Gardena use cutting-edge technology to create a personalized plan for your unique needs, and our friendly team is here to support you at every stage.
Here are just a few reasons our patients love us:

Our provider will perform an exam, take photographs of your teeth and facial profile, take digital X-rays, and scan or take impressions of your teeth. You will then receive a treatment plan reviewing your options, the proposed therapy, and the time and costs involved.
Our Gardena orthodontic provider commonly recommends braces for crowding, crooked or rotated teeth, gaps between teeth, and overall misalignment. Open bites, underbites, overbites, and crossbites are also frequent reasons for treatment.
Specialists recommend that children receive a first orthodontic evaluation by age 7, when they have a combination of adult and baby teeth. Adults and teens also make excellent orthodontic candidates in most cases.
Yes, regular six-month checkups remain important throughout your treatment. Some patients benefit from cleanings every three to four months because the extra appliances collect buildup during the day.
The right appliance depends on your goals, your budget, and how visible you want treatment to be. Fill out the form below and our team will reach out within one business hour to find a time that works for you.
