Frequently Asked Questions
What is orthodontic treatment, and why is it important?
Orthodontic treatment involves the use of braces, aligners, or other appliances to straighten crooked teeth, correct bite problems, and improve overall dental alignment. Orthodontic issues, such as malocclusion (bad bite) and crooked teeth, can affect oral health, function, and aesthetics. Orthodontic treatment helps address these issues, resulting in a healthier, more functional bite and a straighter, more attractive smile.
What are the different types of orthodontic treatment available?
Orthodontic treatment options include:
- Traditional braces: Metal or ceramic brackets attached to the teeth, connected by wires and elastic bands, gradually move the teeth into proper alignment.
- Clear aligners: Custom-made, clear plastic trays that fit over the teeth and gradually shift them into alignment. Examples include Invisalign® and ClearCorrect®.
- Lingual braces: Brackets and wires attached to the back (lingual) surface of the teeth, making them less visible from the front.
- Self-ligating braces: Braces that use specialized brackets with built-in clips to hold the archwire in place, reducing friction and treatment time.
The choice of orthodontic treatment depends on factors such as the severity of the orthodontic issues, patient preference, and treatment goals.
What can I expect during orthodontic treatment?
During orthodontic treatment:
- The orthodontist will conduct a thorough examination of the teeth, jaws, and bite and develop a personalized treatment plan.
- Braces or aligners will be custom-fitted and placed on the teeth according to the treatment plan.
- Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor progress, make adjustments, and ensure the treatment is progressing as planned.
- Treatment duration varies depending on the complexity of the case and the chosen orthodontic method but typically ranges from several months to a few years.
