Misaligned teeth may be more than just an unattractive smile. They can have an effect on how well the teeth work and can even have an effect on a person’s self-confidence. The answer to this problem is orthodontics. At Millennium Smiles, we are proud to utilize integrative orthodontics to give the patients of Frisco, TX a beautiful smile that they’ll love.
What is integrative orthodontics?
Integrative orthodontics is a complex practice philosophy that dictates a thorough look at the entirety of your health and not just your teeth. It is sometimes referred to as “airway focused” orthodontics.
What symptoms are treated with integrative orthodontics?
This method of straightening teeth can address a variety of symptoms, including:
- Crooked teeth
- Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea
- Mouth breathing
- Forward head posture
- Pseudo ADHD
- Orthodontic relapse cases
- Abnormal facial growth/development
- Tongue ties
- TMJ issues not resolved with appliances
- Overbites or underbites

Consequences of Not Treating
Leaving a misaligned smile untreated can have surprisingly serious effects on your oral health and even your overall health. Besides producing an appearance that you may not be satisfied with, having teeth that are misaligned can lead to periodontal disease because misaligned teeth are difficult to clean properly. In addition, a bad bite could prevent you from chewing correctly and fully enjoying your food. Because the bite of your teeth involves your overall facial structure, a bad bite could cause abnormal facial growth. Extreme consequences of not undergoing needed orthodontic treatment include anxiety or depression, chronic pain issues, poor nasal breath, and ADHD-like symptoms.
