Like most patients, John came to me to fix his crooked teeth. This is the most common reason patients seek braces. To straighten teeth out. Some people have large teeth and small jaws. Disharmony of these two anatomies result in many unfavorable things. Like, food particles getting stuck easily in teeth and hard to clean it. This creates gum problems from plaque build-up. My philosophy for orthodontic treatment is to avoid extractions to do my best. However, in certain cases, it is unavoidable and actually it is necessary to achieve ideal outcome. To diagnose patients existing problem and suggest best treatment plan to fix it, is my profession.
