Signs It’s Time to See a Dentist Immediately
Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on correcting misaligned teeth and jaws to improve both functionality and aesthetics. At Braces and Crowns Orthodontic & Implant Centre, we offer comprehensive orthodontic treatment options tailored to address your unique dental needs. Whether you're dealing with crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, or any other alignment issues, our experienced orthodontists are here to guide you towards a healthier, straighter smile.
Orthodontic problems can affect more than just the appearance of your smile—they can also impact your oral health, making it harder to clean your teeth effectively, which can lead to tooth decay, gum disease, and other dental issues. By properly aligning your teeth and jaws, orthodontic treatment not only improves your smile's appearance but also enhances oral hygiene, facilitates proper chewing, and reduces strain on your jaw joints.
Our orthodontic treatment begins with an initial consultation, where we assess your teeth and bite using advanced diagnostic tools, including X-rays and digital impressions. Based on your needs and goals, we recommend the most suitable treatment plan, which may include traditional braces, ceramic braces, or invisible aligners. Each treatment is customized to ensure that we meet your specific requirements and deliver the best possible results.
Metal Braces: Traditional metal braces are the most common type of orthodontic treatment and are highly effective for addressing even the most complex alignment issues. They consist of metal brackets and wires, which work together to gradually move teeth into their desired positions. Modern metal braces are smaller and more comfortable than ever before, making them a reliable choice for patients of all ages.
Ceramic Braces: Ceramic braces function similarly to metal braces but are made of tooth-colored or clear materials, making them less noticeable. They are a popular choice for individuals who want effective treatment with a more aesthetic appearance. Ceramic braces blend in with your natural teeth, providing a more discreet way to straighten your smile.
Invisible Aligners: For those seeking a virtually invisible solution, invisible aligners offer a modern approach to orthodontics. These clear, removable trays fit snugly over your teeth and are changed every few weeks to gradually shift teeth into alignment. Invisible aligners are comfortable and convenient, allowing you to maintain your normal eating and oral hygiene habits throughout treatment. They are especially suitable for mild to moderate alignment issues and are popular among teenagers and adults looking for a discreet way to straighten their teeth.
Orthodontic treatment is not just for children and teenagers—adults can also benefit from a straighter smile. With advancements in orthodontic technology, treatment options today are more efficient, comfortable, and discreet, making it easier for adults to achieve the smile they’ve always wanted without the traditional look of metal braces. Our orthodontist, Dr. Akanksha Shukla, has extensive experience working with patients of all ages to provide customized treatment plans that fit their lifestyle and goals.
The duration of orthodontic treatment varies depending on the complexity of the case, but it typically ranges from 12 to 24 months. Throughout the treatment process, regular check-up appointments at Braces and Crowns are scheduled to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments. Our goal is to ensure that your teeth move into their ideal positions as smoothly and efficiently as possible, resulting in a beautiful, healthy smile that lasts a lifetime.
Once the active phase of orthodontic treatment is complete, a retention phase follows to keep your newly aligned teeth in place. We provide custom retainers to ensure that your teeth remain in their corrected positions and that your treatment results are maintained. Retainers play a crucial role in preventing relapse and ensuring that your investment in a beautiful smile lasts for many years to come.
