How Braces Benefit You
Many people ask Dr. Steven Guelff, “Are braces really necessary?” The truth is, a healthy bite and straight teeth enhance the quality of life. Most people do not have naturally straight teeth. Heredity, environmental factors, habits and accidents can all lead to crooked teeth. The American Association of Orthodontists® estimates that over 75% of people would benefit from orthodontic care at some time in their lives.
