Braces can improve tooth alignment and address certain bite concerns. Synergy Dental Center offers personalized orthodontic care at our Gillette, WY, and Sturgis, SD, offices. Our team evaluates your smile and goals to recommend appropriate treatment.
Braces gradually move teeth into better positions. Depending on your individual needs, treatment may help address:
Improving tooth alignment can also make some areas of the mouth easier to clean. Better positioning may help you brush and floss more effectively, supporting your long-term oral hygiene.

No two smiles are exactly alike. The appropriate orthodontic approach depends on factors such as your tooth positioning, bite, oral health, and treatment goals. The American Association of Orthodontists explains that orthodontic treatment addresses individual alignment and bite concerns through personalized care.
At Synergy Dental Center, an evaluation helps our team understand your specific needs before recommending treatment. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we can discuss your concerns and explain which options may fit your smile.
A consultation is also a chance to ask questions about the treatment process, expected appointments, and what to expect as your teeth gradually move into better alignment.

Braces may be considered at different stages of life based on each patient’s oral health and orthodontic needs. Treatment may benefit:
Age alone does not determine candidacy. An evaluation allows the dental team to assess your oral health, tooth positioning, bite, and treatment goals.
For patients interested in improving multiple aspects of their smile, orthodontic treatment may sometimes be considered as part of a broader smile makeover plan, depending on their individual needs and treatment goals.

Understanding what happens during treatment can make the process easier to anticipate.
Your treatment begins with an assessment of your teeth, bite, and overall oral health. Our team may use dental X-rays as part of the evaluation and will discuss your orthodontic concerns and goals.
If braces are appropriate, we will develop a treatment approach based on your individual alignment needs and explain the recommended process. Depending on your goals and candidacy, we may also discuss alternatives such as Invisalign or clear aligners.
When treatment begins, braces apply controlled pressure to guide the teeth gradually toward their intended positions.
Regular appointments allow our team to evaluate tooth movement and make adjustments throughout treatment.
Once active orthodontic treatment is complete, your dental team can discuss ways to maintain your new alignment, including retainers when recommended.
