Do I need braces?
After a proper clinical examination, x-rays, and teeth impressions, a dentist can consider whether braces are a good alternative for you. Only then can a proper procedure plan be developed.
Orthodontic treatment could be the best for you whether you feel to be a match with any of the following:
- Upper front teeth get stuck out on the lower teeth. Commonly called “buck teeth” and overbite.
- Lower teeth have a huge distance between the forward or the upper teeth. This is Commonly called “underbite” by the public.
- Upper teeth do not come down slightly in front of the lower teeth. This is Commonly called “crossbite”.
- The center of your upper frontal teeth does not come within the center of your lower front teeth. This is commonly known as “bite disarray”.
Teeth do not reach to fill up the buccal cavity or are missing, gaps between the teeth. - A small dental ridge cannot accommodate the teeth to deliver an appearance of highly crowded.
Fixed braces can be worn 24/7. Only your orthodontist therapist can remove fixed braces.
Several types of fixed braces are available.
Types of Braces: There are various types of braces available, including traditional metal braces, lingual braces, clear ceramic braces, and clear aligners such as Invisalign. The most commonly used type is traditional metal braces, made of stainless steel.
- Traditional braces (the most commonly required orthodontic appliance)
- Conventional braces (the type that most people think of) need elastic or metal ties to hold the archwire in the area.
- Self-ligating braces (the type our Orthodontists preferred most often) do not need elastic or metal ties. Self-ligating braces build proper tooth alignment faster, more comfortably, and with fewer adjustments (and office visits) than conventional braces.
- Ceramic braces aren’t visible as compared to traditional braces because they have such a quality to get blend with the wearer’s natural tooth color. They are looking similar to conventional braces, but because they are built from porcelain, they are hugely expensive and susceptible to damage. Clear ceramic braces are similar to metal braces but use tooth-colored brackets to get a similar effect as your teeth.
- Lingual Braces: Lingual braces is a type of orthodontic treatment in which brackets and wires are joined to the inner surface of your teeth, making them less noticeable from the outside. Lingual braces are affixed to the back surface of your teeth and remain collapsed from the front. On the other hand, clear aligners, such as Invisalign, make use of transparent, detachable trays for aligning your teeth. They are particularly known among adults and teenagers who wish to align their teeth without noticeable braces. Lingual braces can be highly expensive than traditional braces and need extended adjustment, but they can give excellent results.
