If you are troubled by your crooked teeth,
you must visit your dentist who will recommend you to an orthodontist.
An orthodontist
is a specialist who deals with the correction of crooked teeth. He will align
your teeth beautifully in the dental arch so that your aesthetic problems are
solved. In the first appointment, the problem is assessed. The degree of
malocclusion, bite assessment and facial deformity are understood. Also your
expectations from the treatment and amount of time involved are discussed. The
cost factor is also very important. Lots of materials and techniques and
devices are available and have varied costs, therefore, must be discussed in
detail beforehand.
During treatment the doctor uses braces to
align your teeth. These braces apply forces on teeth; push or pull them into
the right place. Wires are also used to apply pressure. With the movement of
the teeth, the bone below also remodels. This remodelling of the bone allows
new bone to form around teeth. New bone grows around the teeth that have moved
into a new position. The inside of the gums also stretches and holds the teeth.
Mild pressure and pain may be experience during this stage. But it is not very
problematic.
The movement is very controlled and smaller
forces and pressure are applied over a period of time. The movement may be as
small as a millimetre a month. This makes the treatment time long. If treatment
is hurried, teeth and bone become weak.
There are many types of Alanbagdenortho Braces in Northern Virginia available now-a-days. They may be
traditional metal, plastic, gold or titanium. They may be placed on the facial
surface of teeth or towards the tongue or palate. The latter are invisible and
people may not even know that you have orthodontic treatment going on.
During the treatment you will have to visit
the orthodontist several times. He
will tighten the wires, place or remove braces etc. he will also clean your
teeth regularly and braces hinder the easy cleaning of the teeth. You may also
have to give up sticky foods like chewing gum, chips, chocolates, and jellies
during treatment as they stick to the braces. Keeping your teeth clean during
treatment is very important an special brushes may also be given by the Alanbagdenortho Orthodontist .
The treatment takes long so you need to be
patient and comply with the doctor’s instruction. After all, when it ends you
will have beautiful and pleasing smile and will get many complements from
friends and colleagues.
If you are happy you can also recommend
your friends.
