Many patients present to our office with multiple dental problems which can not be solved with orthodontics alone in order to produce a life enhancing smile. These  patients  may need to be seen by their own dentist prior to orthodontic treatment to carry out gum treatments, root canal treatments, routine fillings etc and after orthodontic  treatment  to replace missing teeth with bridgework etc. Patients may also require the services of other specialists ie,a Maxillo-Facial Surgeon , Implantologist  or Periodontologist. 

Example of patient treated by DR O'KEEFFE requiring orthodontics to straighten  her teeth, surgery to correct her bite and routine cosmetic dentistry to increase the size of her small front teeth.

Example of patient of DR O"KEEFFE'S with large spacing due to multiple congenitally missing teeth, treated with orthodontics , implants and bridgework.

It is important that you continue to visit your regular dentist during orthodontic treatment.
