All about adult and children’s orthodontics

Why choose an orthodontic correction?

People used to associate tooth braces with suffering, but nowadays that’s disappeared.  Beside considerations of aesthetics, orthodontics can solve health issues as well.  An example of this is when the upper and lower teeth don’t line up correctly. This may result in grinding of teeth, broken teeth, loosening and movement, or even pain in the jaw.

Fortunately, orthodontics is a viable solution no matter one’s age; it’s not just for children.  Thanks to today’s technology, aesthetic, invisible braces can be worn comfortably, allowing a much shorter treatment time. This is a small investment that will pay off for the wearer years from now.  If you smile with confidence, your self-assurance and charm will show on the outside, too.

Frequently asked questions about orthodontics

An orthodontic fitting makes brushing and cleaning somewhat more difficult. Nevertheless, plaque must be removed, even from the hard-to-reach places. It’s critical that teeth are brushed thoroughly, with great care, and for the proper length of time. Orthodontics don’t affect caries (tooth decay), but improper brushing certainly does. There are special toothbrushes for wearers of braces, as well as so-called interdental brushes for cleaning between the teeth. In addition, it is recommended to use a water flosser after brushing, along with dental floss and mouthwash.

External fittings in no way affect the formation of sounds. In the case of inside the mouth braces, the wearer needs to get used to having them in his or her mouth, but this adjustment period is temporary. After a while, the tongue becomes accustomed to a “foreign object” in the mouth. Once a person gets used to the appliance, talking doesn’t cause any problems at all.

Before any orthodontic brace or fitting is done, the dentist carries out a thorough interview with the patient. If someone is allergic to metal, nowadays there are numerous solutions using material that does not cause allergic reactions.  The most important thing is that the dentist be aware of your problem.

No marks will remain, and that is because the device used to remove bonding material is stronger than the bonding, but weaker than tooth enamel.  Thus, even if the drill head is pushed hard against a tooth, it will not damage the enamel.

When orthodontic appliances are first put in place, the patient must get used to them, since the bands which are bonded to the teeth cause a significant change in the mouth.  The teeth may be sensitive initially, and the gums, tongue or lips may have some irritation. These temporary complaints can be relieved, either by rubbing orthodontic wax on the problem areas, or in severe cases with gentle painkillers. Most patients adjust to their braces within a few days and experience no more problems afterward.

Througout the period when braces are worn, toothbrushing requires the utmost attention. That is because there is significantly less cleaning being done by the teeth themselves, especially in the area between the braces and the gums. Removing tartar is a bit more difficult with bonded braces. If tartar is not removed correctly, a gum infection can get started and the gum may even bleed. Other than gum infection, neglect of proper brushing may result in tooth decay, which will demand further treatment by the dentist. If your gums bleed often or become infected, be sure to tell the dentist at your next checkup.  In many cases, professional cleaning at the clinic is required. On average, professional cleaning is recommended every three months.

Placement of orthodontic appliances is absolutely painless.  First, teeth are cleaned and dried, after which a thin layer of bonding material is applied. Then the brackets are placed in the mouth, all at once. They are fitted precisely, and then excess bonding material is removed.  Next a special lamp is shined on the teeth, which causes the material to bond securely. After this, the band is put in place, and this procedure is likewise pain-free.

In general, it is difficult to determine whether one needs orthodontic correction or not, because in many cases it is needed even though the teeth appear to be straight.  On the other hand, there are problems that seem bad at first sight, but straighten out by themselves after a while.  Have your teeth checked by the best orthodontist you can find, and he or she can easily tell you if you need braces.
