How Are Orthodontic Problems Corrected?
First pretreatment records are made. These records are important
Ask the Orthodontist tools for the orthodontist to use in making an accurate diagnosis.
They include medicaVdental history, clinical examination, models of
teeth, photos of your face /teeth, and x-rays of your mouth and facial
i bones. This information is used to decide on the best treatment to
yield a proper bite relationship while enhancing a patients smile
esthetics and facial beauty.
A customized treatment plan is outlined for eachpatient. When the
orthodontic appliances are in place, this is considered the "active
treatment" phase. Appliances are adjusted periodically so that the
teeth are moved correctly and efficiently. Modern materials exert a
steady, gentle pressure on the teeth, makin thetooth-inoving srocess
faster and more comfortable.

How Long Will Orthodontics Take
The time required for orthodontic treatmen vtines rom person - o
person. An important factor in how long a patient wears braces is
how well the patient cooperates during treatment. For example: by
following instructions to wear rubber bands or avoiding foods that
would break braces/bands from the teeth. Maintaining clean teeth
and gums allow the teeth to move efficient an re uce stainin
a healthy smile is a beautiful smile!
After active treatment is completed, the"retention" phase begins
A patient will need to wear a retainer so that the teeth stay in their
new positions. The first six months are critical as the retainers serve
as the "brakes" and stop the teeth from moving. However, retainers
should be worn longer (as your orthodontist suggests) to maintain a
beautiful smile!
