Bite Correction for Damaged Smiles

If you’ve lost teeth or some have shifted in your mouth, then you are most likely experiencing problems with your bite. Teeth are designed to fit together like gears to provide functionality for biting and chewing foods. When disease or tooth loss affects this harmony, you can suffer from chronic jaw and joint pain, frequent headaches, grinding and clenching, clicking or popping when you move your mouth, and even tinnitus. To correct this damage and re-establish comfortable function, our board-certified periodontist, Dr. Paul Goldstein, offers bite correction in Lake Success/New Hyde Park, NY after gum disease therapy or dental implant placement.

How You Benefit from Bite Correction

  • Re-establish comfortable, even bite
  • Minimize jaw and joint pain

  • Prevent further tooth damage
  • Immediate and lasting results

Why See a Specialist?

While it is true that any general dentist can provide a bite adjustment, there is an advantage to receiving this treatment from a specialist, especially one with over 40 years of experience like Dr. Goldstein. As a periodontist, his advanced education and training directly involved treating complex problems related to the teeth, gums, and bone. He has also completed extensive clinical training in dental implant surgery, including related procedures like gum grafting, tooth extraction, and bone grafting. His comprehensive understanding of facial anatomy and oral structures, including how teeth fit together, make him the go-to expert for such treatments as bite adjustment. With precision treatment from our surgical team at The Periodontics and Implant Center of NY, we can help establish equilibrium with your bite for better function and to reduce the risk of damaging teeth or implants in the future.

Our Approach to Occlusal Adjustment

We provide bite correction in Lake Success/New Hyde Park, NY for patients who have completed gum disease treatment and those who receive dental implants. Our first goal is to determine the primary cause of your bad bite (malocclusion), so we can provide the most targeted and effective treatment. Bite correction involves smoothing high points on teeth that are offsetting occlusion so that the bite comes together properly. When patients need dental implants, Dr. Goldstein pays specific attention to perfecting your bite from the beginning. By properly adjusting teeth and dental implants, we can restore better structure and stability to your mouth, so you can experience better function and a healthier smile for life!
