Straight wire Orthodontics available in Wichita
Straight wire orthodontic procedures are effective for children, teenagers, and adults. This makes it a popular option for many patients. While it is an effective treatment, younger teeth generally move faster so the process may take longer for adult patients. Generally, the treatment takes 6-36 months, but each case is different. The severity of the problem in the beginning and the ease with which the teeth move affects how long the process takes. However, the results will be just as pleasing for adults as they are for teens.
For this type of orthodontic treatment, a wire called a memory wire is used. It is shaped around the teeth. As the wire begins to straighten out, the teeth are pulled with the wire and thus are straightened. The procedure gently moves the teeth over time making this a gentle, comfortable procedure for patients.
Orthodontic procedures are performed for cosmetic and functional reasons, to improve a smile and a person's bite. A nice smile can make someone more attractive and appealing. It can also increase an individual's self-confidence. By straightening your smile, not only will you improve any issues you may have with your bite, you may also improve your self-esteem and feel better about yourself.
Orthodontic procedures are available through Dr. David Koepsel at East Wichita Dentist. Having a fondness for orthodontics led Dr. Koepsel to obtain the additional training necessary to offer the procedures in his practice. If you are in the Wichita area, contact Dr. Koepsel and his staff today to schedule an appointment to discuss your orthodontic options. Don't let crooked or misaligned teeth, problems with your bite, or TMJ issues hold you back any longer. Call the office at (316) 215-7152 today to get started.

Such an amazing dental office! The staff is so nice and welcoming. I felt right at home. They used sedation dentistry on me and it took all the fear from me and it didn't even hurt. I have never met a dental office that is so easy to talk to! Love them
