Orthodontic Treatments
What is Orthodontics?
- Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of problems in the alignment of teeth and jaws.
- Maligned teeth can lead to problems such as an increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease, as well as excessive wear and tear on poorly positioned teeth. They can also affect your self-confidence; a mouthful of crowded, overlapping teeth does not make for an attractive smile!
- Orthodontic problems are usually identified by the age of 10-14 years. Children, youngsters, adults, and adolescents can be treated.
The Orthodontic Assessment may include
Photographs of Face and Teeth
X-rays of Jaws and Teeth
Intraoral Scanning of Teeth
Following those procedures, your orthodontist is in a position to consider
Treatment Planning
In treatment planning, we discuss and make the treatment plan. The plan is created by formulating and using information collected from the previous dental visits. Later, arrangements are made to begin the treatment.
Prior to starting the orthodontic treatment, teeth cleaning and other required treatments are done.
When treatment should begin
If anyone notifies or feels the difference in a smile, or irregularly placed teeth, or any jaw deformities.
How long it will last
The total duration of wearing dental braces depends on multiple factors. Usually, the duration may vary from 18-36 months.
You can ensure the most efficient treatment and minimize the time by
- maintaining oral hygiene,
- cleaning your braces
- following your orthodontist’s instructions
- keeping all appointments
Keep on seeing your dentist for regular check-ups.
What it will cost
We provide different types of braces options and based on that charges are applied.
