Having straight teeth does more than boost your self-esteem and confidence — it also contributes to better dental health. When teeth are crowded, crooked, or misaligned, it becomes harder to maintain proper oral hygiene, which increases the risk of plaque buildup, gum disease, and tooth decay.

Correcting teeth alignment through braces or clear aligners helps distribute pressure evenly, preventing uneven wear that can weaken tooth structure. Properly aligned teeth can also reduce jaw strain, bite problems, and headaches, improving overall comfort and long-term oral wellness.

At Wonderful Smile Dental Clinic in Puyallup, our goal is to create healthy, confident smiles through personalized orthodontic care — whether you’re considering traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, or invisible aligners.
