Interproximal Reduction IPR at Baird Orthodontics

Dr. Marta Baird, a Board-Certified Orthodontist in Pleasanton, California, explains interproximal reduction and its benefits for orthodontic patients. This procedure is particularly useful for addressing dental crowding and protrusion, enhancing the alignment, health, function, and aesthetics of teeth. Interproximal reduction involves the careful removal of a small amount of tooth structure between teeth and, when performed conservatively, poses no long-term dental consequences.
