Orthodontics
Are you unhappy with crooked teeth, an overbite, underbite, or gaps? Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to fix them and improve your smile with the help of orthodontics.
Orthodontic Services to Improve Your Smile
At CCED, we’re here to straighten things out.
Our teeth can seriously affect the way we view ourselves. Damaged teeth can hinder our confidence, but a beautiful smile can do wonders for both health and confidence. That’s why our orthodontic services are important for children and adults alike.
Our staff is made up of some of the best orthodontists in Center City, Philadelphia that can help determine which teeth straightening options are right for you.
Why Should I See an Orthodontist?
Orthodontic services can resolve a number of dental health issues, such as crooked teeth, overbites, underbites, crowded teeth, and gaps. These issues can affect appearance and confidence, especially for children as they’re growing up. Teeth that are out of alignment can cause difficulties with eating, speaking, and other oral functions.
Our orthodontist can help alleviate those difficulties. Here’s why you should schedule an appointment at CCED for teeth straightening services:
1. If your teeth are not straight, it can be difficult to clean your teeth and gums. Lack of thorough cleaning can lead to problems in the future, such as gingivitis.
2. Straight teeth encourage you to smile and thus can help improve your first impressions.
3. Teeth straightening services can fix issues with biting and chewing.
4. If your jaw is misaligned, it can affect your entire facial profile. Orthodontic treatment can help to address this issue.

Treatments We Offer
You have options when it comes to teeth straightening services in Center City, Philadelphia. Our orthodontist, Dr. Han Lee, can fit adults and children with braces, or decide if Invisalign is the best option.
Braces
Braces are an effective way to stabilize and realign teeth over a period of time, using brackets that attach to teeth and wires that run across them, connecting the brackets. They can be made from metal or ceramic materials and can run along the front of the teeth or, in the case of “lingual,” along the back. When it’s time to remove the braces, retainers are used to ensure the teeth remain straight.
The type and length of treatment will vary from patient to patient, depending on the degree of misalignment. Trust our orthodontist at CCED to assess your specific issues and determine the perfect solution for you. We’ll get it all straightened out.
Visit our braces page for more information.
Invisalign
For patients who want to avoid traditional braces in favor of a more “invisible,” but equally effective form of teeth straightening treatment, Invisalign can be a great option.
