In our practice we also offer traditional braces. The braces do all the work for you. You don’t have to worry about putting in trays, that kind of thing. And so, we can do that for children and adults. When we’re looking at orthodontics, we can tailor the treatment to the patient’s needs. If it’s a high school student who might not be very compliant, we can offer them braces that they will get a more predictable quicker result. If it’s an adult, who, let’s say, speaks for a living, or is out in front of the public, we can offer them traditional clear aligners so that they don’t have to be self-conscious about what’s a person seeing with my teeth? Are they going to judge me in some way? And so, we can focus the treatment on the patient’s needs and make it fit their lifestyle.
Choose the Option That Suits You Best
When it comes to improving your smile with cosmetic dentistry, every patient’s needs and goals are unique and require a customized approach to treatment. The kind of orthodontic treatment you choose will depend on several factors, including the complexity of your teeth position and bite alignment problems, and whether you went through preventive orthodontics at a younger age.
At Kirchner Dental, we provide orthodontic options so you can choose the treatment that best suits your dental needs and lifestyle:
- Traditional Braces – Brackets and wires are still a highly effective method of correcting many issues with the way teeth line up and fit together. Typically, patients can expect to wear traditional braces anywhere from 18-24 months.
- Clear Ceramic Braces – With this option, teens and adults can enjoy the same results of metal braces without drawing much attention to their brackets and wires. That’s because they match your natural tooth color and blend in better with your smile!
- Custom Clear Aligners – We now offer fully custom clear aligner treatment. Our in-house design center and 3D printer allow us to create your aligners right here in the office! To be a candidate for clear aligners, you must have healthy teeth. If you don’t, ask how we can help restore your dental health.
Improve Your Oral Health With Orthodontic Treatment
Everyone knows about the cosmetic benefits of orthodontic treatment, but what is often overlooked is what it can do for your oral health. If your mouth is too crowded, you’ll likely have teeth that overlap, as well as a bite that doesn’t line up properly when your upper and lower teeth come together.
This can create potential problems with your dental health:
- It creates more hiding places in your mouth for bacteria.
- It makes effective brushing and flossing more difficult.
- It can put your teeth at risk for damage and premature wear.
- It increases your chances of developing tooth decay and gum disease.
