The Most Common Orthodontic Services in The U.S
Conventional Orthodontic Braces (Metal
Aesthetic) Metal braces are the most recognized
orthodontic treatment. They are frequently used
to address dental issues like overcrowding, gaps
between teeth, overbites and underbites.
Aesthetic braces offer a less noticeable
alternative treatment option for achieving our
orthodontic goals. Invisalign As an alternative
to the Conventional Orthodontic braces,
Invisalign offers another treatment option. This
approach uses a series of clear plastic trays to
shift teeth gradually into the desired position.
The trays are removable, for ease in eating,
drinking and caring for the teeth during the
course of treatment. Discrete and clear,
Invisalign is an option for patients who wish to
minimize the appearance of their orthodontic
appliance, maximize freedom in food choices and
ease the dental care during treatment. Dental
Retainers (Retention) Dental retainers are often
used after the teeth have been moved into the
desired position to retain alignment and prevent
teeth from shifting back to the previous
positions. Retainers come in various shapes and
materials and are often recommended to be worn to
prevent teeth from shifting. Orthodontics for
Kids (Early Adolescence Treatment) orthodontics
for kids, including early and adolescent
treatments, provides parents the opportunity to
correct issues with their childrens teeth as
early as possible. Early treatment is to aid in
the correction of crossbites, underbites and
minor tooth movements. Correcting crowded or
misaligned teeth during childhood results in
fewer dental and social issues during adolescence
and adulthood, so planning orthodontic services
in childhood is the ideal option for parents
wishing to help their children avoid these issues
later in life. Orthodontics for
Adults Orthodontics for adults provides adult
patients with many personalized solutions for
orthodontic issues. Whether traditional metal
braces, clear braces, Invisalign or another
orthodontic service an orthodontist will often
provide these services
