Thursday, February 17, 2011. Orthodontics is the specialty in dentistry that is concerned with the treatment and correction of improper bites(malocclusion). Malocclusion can be from tooth irregularity, improper jaw relations or both. Orthodontic treatment entails correcting the alignment of the teeth along with the correction of the jaw alignment. Some orthodontics are done for the purely esthetic purpose of straightening teeth but most include bite corrections as well. Dr's Norm and Blake Maxfield.

http://maxfieldortho.blogspot.com/2011/03/even-celebrities-have-worn-braces.html
Thursday, March 31, 2011. Even celebrities have worn braces! No matter the age, celebrities have been spotted wearing braces. It is wonderful to see them wearing stainless steel braces and not just clear braces and Invisalign. In an industry where looks are so critical, I'm sure it is difficult to get the okay from the agent to proceed with orthodontics.
