Is Your Mouth Overcrowded? Here's What We Recommend Doing.

Many people are embarrassed about their smile due to an overcrowded mouth. Unfortunately, mouth crowding is very common in people, especially if they do not receive corrective orthodontic care at a young age.

Thankfully, there are many procedures that a person can undergo to receive the dental care they need to correct an overcrowded mouth. 

At Smiles of Alaska, our patients receive top-quality corrective and non-invasive dental care from our dedicated staff. 

Dr. Hu and his team would be happy to help patients get the bright, beautiful smile they deserve. Our team works hard to help our patients gain the confidence they need to embrace their smiles. 

We've worked with a lot of patients that have overcrowding and other space issues in their mouth. This issue is relatively common, which causes many of our patients to feel unconfident about the way they smile. 

How Do I Remedy Overcrowding?
Thankfully, our team has a few tips to share with our clients, which can help them learn how to remedy their overcrowded mouths best. 

1. Invisalign
Invisalign is the perfect solution for patients looking for a non-invasive way to remedy mouth crowding. Invisalign quickly and seamlessly applies, giving the teeth a straight, even appearance. While Invisalign must constantly stay on a person's teeth, its smooth, clear surface is hardly noticeable by others. 

Invisalign is easy to take care of; remove it and clean it for frequent usage. Since it is not noticeable, it is a perfect alternative to braces and other traditional straightening methods.
​

2. Veneers 
Veneers are a great way to remedy issues due to mouth crowding. They are thick, porcelain covers, which can fit over teeth to create a smooth, seamless appearance. With veneers, people can hide any imperfections in their teeth, increasing smile confidence. 

Many people do not know that there are also direct resin veneers. These veneers cover cracks and imperfections in the teeth, serving as a great way to eliminate damage. 

Smiles of Alaska's dedicated team has received extensive training in this practice and would be happy to help our clients with their veneer needs.

3. Retainers
Retainers are an option for people looking to space out their teeth on the top or bottom of the jaw. These retainers either come in removable or nonremovable styles, based on a person's preference. 

Retainers are not as popular as Invisalign or braces, as they do not straighten the teeth. Instead, they only make space, which allows a person's mouth to feel and look less crowded.
