Are you someone who always gets compared to the “jaw-dropping” celebrities, but not in the good way? Have you been struggling with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain and wish you could find relief?

His approach to orthodontic treatment takes into account the individual needs of each patient. His passion is helping his patients gain greater confidence and live free from discomfort.
What is Jaw Misalignment?
Jaw misalignment, also known as malocclusion, occurs when the teeth and the jaw do not line up properly. This can cause a number of issues including crooked teeth, overbite, underbite, teeth grinding and clenching, and jaw pain and discomfort. In more severe cases, misaligned jaws can lead to severe health problems such as sleep apnea, headaches, and even chronic neck and back pain.
How Can It Be Corrected?
Fortunately, orthodontic treatment can help to correct jaw misalignment and improve overall oral health. Dr. Kelley Mingus offers a range of services including traditional braces, lingual braces, Invisalign and clear braces. Each treatment option is tailored to the unique needs of the patient. Braces work by applying gentle pressure to the teeth in order to move them into the desired position. This process can take up to a few years, but in the end you will have a beautiful smile and a healthy bite.
The Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment
The benefits of orthodontic treatment go beyond just aesthetics. When the teeth and jaw are properly aligned, it is easier to keep them clean and reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease. Properly aligned teeth also reduce the risk of chipping and breaking. Additionally, a healthy bite can lead to improved self-esteem and confidence.
