FUNCTIONAL ORTHODONTICS

Functional Orthodontics for All Ages

Clear Lake Cosmetic Dentistry and Orthodontics

Constant muscles forces are powerful and can move teeth. A bad bite, poor head posture, restricted airway, tongue habits and other factors may cause muscle forces that adversely affect the occlusion (bite). Not only may these forces paly a role in causing crooked teeth or an improper bite, but failure to deal with them in orthodontic treatment may lead to premature relapse of the straightened teeth. In younger patients, abnormal muscle forces can have a serious effect on facial development. It is our goal at Cosmetic Smile Designs to not only starighten teeth, but improve facial profile, balance the bite, and improve TMJ function.

"I've been going to Dr. Sparks for 10 + years and he and his staff are the best. They really take good care of my wife and I. I appreciate how they stay up to date with modern tools and procedures and I feel like it really makes a difference in my overall health. With this last visit, after the cleaning, x-rays and exam, they performed a procedure that took about 10 minutes and whitened my teeth a couple of shades. I would definitely recommend a visit to their office if you're looking for a great dentist in the Clear Lake / Webster area."

"I would reccommend Cosmetic Smile Designs to anyone looking for a new Dentist office. I have been going for quite some time now and they treat you so well and appointments are always on time without having to wait like in other offices. Tiffany does such a great job with my cleaning all I want to do is smile when I am done. Thanks Cosmetic Smile Designs for doing such a great job and keeping my teeth nice and healthy."

"Our recent visit to Cosmetic Smile Designs was a great experience as usual. We love your modern facility and friendly team. With your all inclusive services we leave knowing we were well taken care of and nothing was missed. I am looking forward to having Dr. Sparks fit me with my new EMA appliance in a couple of weeks and getting some relief from my Obstructive Sleep Apnea."
