What is orthodontics?
Orthodontics is the movement of teeth in their most functional position. That is, in a position where the teeth and jaws are in harmony, and inevitably provide a most excellent smile!

What is the role of an orthodontist?
An Orthodontist is a “Tooth Engineer”. His job is to move your teeth efficiently, in order to build a functional bite between your jaws that will also provide you with a beautiful smile. Like an engineer, this process involves the use of precise, well-balanced and appropriately timed forces, on specific teeth at specific times

How orthodontic treatment works?
Orthodontic appliances can be made of metal, ceramic or plastic. They may be removable or they may be fixed (brackets bonded to the teeth). By placing a constant, gentle force in a carefully controlled direction, braces slowly move teeth to a corrected position. You can choose brackets that are clear or metallic colour. You can choose the colour of the ties that hold the wire in brackets, thus giving the braces a colourful appearance. Wires are also less noticeable than they used to be and the latest materials move teeth faster with less discomfort to patients.

Duration of treatment
Treatment time typically ranges from one to three years, depending on the growth of the patient’s mouth and face and the severity of the problem. Patients grow at different rates and will respond differently to orthodontic treatment, so the time to case completion may differ from the original estimate. The patient’s cooperation such as excellent brushing, diligent use of any prescribed rubber bands or Head Gear, and not missing the monthly scheduled appointments are important factors in achieving the most efficient treatment. Interceptive, or early treatment procedures, may take as little as six months.

FAQ


Q: If my teeth have been crooked for years, Why do I need orthodontic treatment now?
A: There’s no time like the present, and healthy teeth can be moved at any age. Orthodontic treatment can create or restore good function, and teeth that work better usually look better, too. A healthy, beautiful smile can improve self-esteem, no matter your age.

Q: Do I need to change my oral hygiene routine during orthodontic treatment?
A: Yes, keeping your teeth and braces (or other appliances) clean requires a little more effort on your part. Your orthodontist will explain how to brush and floss, and give you any special instructions based on the kind of orthodontic treatment you are having. Be sure to follow your orthodontist’s dental hygiene prescription to get the best results possible.

Q: I see ads for perfect teeth in only one or two visits to the dentist. How is orthodontic treatment different?
A: The ads you are seeing may be for veneers. They cover crooked teeth and mask the problem, but do not address the structure in the mouth or how the upper and lower teeth meet. Veneers are not permanent. Many require removal of significant amounts of tooth enamel.

Q: What are my options if I don't want braces that show?
A: Should your case warrant it, you might want to ask your orthodontist about lingual braces, which are attached behind the teeth. Ceramic braces may be another option to lessen the visibility of braces; they blend in with the teeth for a more natural effect. Additionally, the use of a series of clear aligner trays (invisible braces) instead of traditional braces may be used to correct some problems.

Q: I am pregnant and want to begin orthodontic treatment. Is this OK?
A: Discuss this question with your OBGYN/physician/healthcare professional and orthodontist before you start any orthodontic treatment, as pregnancy brings on bodily changes that may affect the mouth. Soft tissues such as gums become much more susceptible to infection.

Q: Can I play sports while wearing braces?
A: Yes, but make sure you wear a protective mouth guard. Ask your orthodontist to recommend the right kind of mouth guard while you are having orthodontic treatment. Keep your smile beautiful after treatment and wear a mouth guard at every practice and every game.

Q: Can I play musical instruments while wearing braces?
A: With practice and a period of adjustment, braces typically do not interfere with the playing of wind or brass instruments.
