Orthodontics
We're excited to talk about orthodontics, which is an area of cosmetic dentistry that focuses on correcting dental irregularities like crooked teeth and malocclusions. While always aware of the overall oral health.
One popular treatment option for orthodontics is braces, which involve the use of metal brackets and wires to gradually shift teeth into their desired position.
Another option we offer is called SureSmile, a state-of-the-art system that utilizes advanced technology for more precise and efficient tooth movement.
Finally, we also provide Invisalign, a discreet alternative to traditional braces that uses clear aligners to straighten teeth without anyone noticing.
Braces
You can achieve a straighter smile with the help of braces offered at Steckbeck Family Dentistry. Our practice offers a variety of options, including clear aligners and traditional metal braces, to suit your individual needs and preferences.
We understand that wearing braces requires commitment and maintenance, which is why we provide thorough instructions on how to care for your braces during treatment. For those who may be hesitant about getting traditional metal braces, we also offer alternatives such as clear aligners or adult braces.
We also understand that cost may be a concern for some patients, which is why we offer flexible payment plans to make orthodontic treatment more affordable. While there may be some discomfort or pain associated with wearing braces, our team will work closely with you to ensure you're comfortable throughout the process.

SureSmile
To achieve a more precise and efficient orthodontic treatment, consider SureSmile at Steckbeck Family Dentistry. This cutting-edge technology uses 3D imaging to create a customized treatment plan that is tailored to each patient's unique needs.
Unlike traditional braces which require manual adjustments, SureSmile wires are robotically bent to the exact specifications of the treatment plan, resulting in less discomfort and shorter treatment time. SureSmile also offers other benefits such as improved oral hygiene since the wires are easier to clean around compared to traditional braces.
The cost of SureSmile may be higher than traditional braces but it's worth considering due to its faster results and fewer appointments required. Maintenance after treatment is also simpler with SureSmile since patients only need retainers for short periods of time compared to wearing them indefinitely with other treatments.

Invisalign
Looking for a discreet orthodontic treatment option that won't interfere with your daily activities? Look no further than Invisalign at Steckbeck Family Dentistry. Dr. Thomas J. Steckbeck, D.D.S. utilizes this innovative clear aligner system to straighten teeth and improve the aesthetics of your smile.
Invisalign offers many advantages over traditional braces, including being virtually invisible, removable, and comfortable to wear. The cost of Invisalign varies depending on the complexity of each case and the number of aligners needed. However, in many cases, the cost is comparable to traditional braces.
Maintenance tips include cleaning the aligners regularly and avoiding foods and beverages that can stain or damage them. There are different types of Invisalign aligners available for various levels of dental correction, and treatment duration can range from several months to over a year. Before-and-after results show dramatic improvements in tooth alignment and overall smile appearance with minimal discomfort or inconvenience during treatment.
Candidacy requirements include having mild to moderate dental misalignment issues that can be corrected with clear aligner therapy. While insurance coverage for Invisalign may vary depending on the policy and provider, many plans offer partial or full coverage for orthodontic treatments like Invisalign.
It's important to note that there are alternative options available such as lingual braces or ceramic braces that may be more suitable for some patients based on individual needs or preferences. Common misconceptions about Invisalign include it only being effective for minor dental issues or causing speech impediments; however, advancements in technology have made it a viable option for addressing a wide range of orthodontic concerns without affecting speech or oral hygiene practices negatively.

Here are some of the different ways we can address teeth discoloration at our practice:
- Teeth bleaching: This is one of the most popular methods for whitening teeth. It involves applying a special gel that breaks down stubborn stains and removes them from the surface of your tooth enamel.
- At-home remedies: If you prefer to whiten your teeth gradually over time, we can provide you with custom-fitted trays and whitening gel that you can use on your own schedule in the comfort of your own home.
- Diet and lifestyle changes: Certain foods and drinks (like red wine or dark berries) can contribute to tooth discoloration over time. By making adjustments to your diet and oral hygiene routine, you may be able to prevent future staining from occurring.
