Get Wise About Your Teeth
Teeth come from calcium. Many animals are classified by their teeth. Humans have two sets of teeth during their lifetime, (diphyodontic) baby teeth and adult teeth, but other animals have more than two. Sharks have a new set of teeth about every two weeks and are polyphyodontic. Rodents have incisors that grow constantly. Consistent gnawing regulates the size of them. Some rodents, like guinea pigs, and rabbits, also have molars that grow constantly.
In humans, incisors are the four front teeth. Canines are the pointed teeth on each side, and demonstrate our carnivorous predisposition. There are two premolars on each side behind the canines, and three molars on each side behind the premolars. That makes 16 on top, and 16 on bottom for 32.
This includes wisdom teeth, which can be problematic if they are misaligned, causing nerve, gum and tooth damage. Many people require the removal of their wisdom teeth, resulting in two molars on each side. These teeth usually develop between the ages of 17 and 25. If you think you need your wisdom teeth removed, visit Dr. Yakov Eisenberger, your local Brooklyn orthodontist today. Dr. Yakov Eisenberger can let you know what steps to take if you do require the removal of your dens setentiae (that’s wisdom teeth in Latin).

Straight Teeth = Happiness
Having braces is a sacrifice. While you may think that it’s embarrassing to be past middle school and have braces, having straight teeth is something that will last a lifetime. Teeth are the first thing that people notice about you, and having a bright straight smile can give you a major advantage in life.
Crooked teeth are not only unattractive, but they can cause major health problems down the line. Besides having things stuck in your teeth all the time, migraines, ringing in the ears, and broken teeth are common. Gingivitis, cavities and tooth decay are also frequent. Speech features such as lisps can be frustrating. And of course, poor self-esteem is one of the most prevalent side effects of having crooked teeth. Having braces for a few short years will alleviate all of your problems, and give you everything you need to have a healthy and happy mouth.
If you want to fix your teeth, look for a quality Brooklyn orthodontist. Brooklyn orthodontists are many, but there are some that tower over all of the rest. Dr. Yakov Eisenberger is one of the tallest. If you’re looking for Brooklyn NY braces, call him or visit www.HansonPlaceOrtho.com.

How to Determine if You or Your Child Needs Braces
There are certain signs one can look for, if you are concerned that you or your child will need braces. It’s fairly simple to do. If you know what you to look for, you can easily spot potential problems with alignment, bite and other conditions that can cause problems cosmetically, in addition to causing discomfort. Once you are able to determine that you or your child indeed has a problem, you can then make an appointment to see you’re a NYC braces orthodontist.
1) The first thing you should do is look for crowding and overlapping teeth. These dental problems can be extremely hard to clean and floss, even for a dental hygienist. So if you notice this problem, you may want to find a place that does orthodontics in Brooklyn NY.
2) If you don’t notice any crowding or overlapping teeth, check for signs of an overbite. If the front teeth protrude over the bottom, not allowing them to line up correctly, braces may be in order.
3) Underbites are also a common ailment and are pretty easy to detect. If the bottom teeth protrude over the bottom edge of the top teeth.
Here is a helpful video from eHow that can help you determine if you or your child need orthodontic treatment.

Brooklyn NY Braces Means Options!
Mini Diamond Braces:
The brackets on mini diamond braces are smaller than the traditional bracket design. This makes it more comfortable for the patient, while giving the same effective treatment for the patient.
GAC Mystique:
Clear brackets aren’t necessarily new, but clear brackets that are virtually stain resistant are pretty new! There’s nothing worse than discolored and stained clear braces. They can really wear down the patient’s confidence level, at a very sensitive time. The GAC Mystique offers the cosmetic benefits of clear brackets, a smooth and comfortable, and has the exact same effectiveness as traditional metal appliances.
In-Ovation R:
If treatment time is an issue for you, the In-Ovation R could be the appliance you’re looking for. It is faster for your orthodontist to use and can significantly reduce treatment time. In addition it offers better hygiene than traditional metal appliances.
In-Ovation C:
Much like the In-Ovation R, the innovation C shortens treatment time and keeps aesthetics in mind by using unique translucent Rhodium covered brackets. In addition, it is a unique self-litigating system giving the patient the freedom of an SL system, with the same benefits of ceramic braces.
