Whether you are concerned about getting braces or clear aligners because you are concerned that you smile doesn’t come out as it ought to, you can trust an orthodontist to do a good job for. An orthodontist has the training to treat, improve the appearance, function and position of teeth that are crooked or those that are abnormally arranged; with orthodontic treatment your teeth can be straightened and moved into the right position. An orthodontist uses different kinds of devices such braces in order to correct the position of such teeth but the exact kind of treatment will be determined by the exact problem that the your teeth have. There are other situations that require that patient wears night headgear in addition to braces while other may have to get some teeth removed as part of the treatment procedure. The kind of treatment that you get from an orthodontist usually takes some time and can be anything between 18 and 24 months but it will also depend on the extent of the complication that you will have presented.
There are different people who will eventually need to visit an orthodontist but they basically include those that have crooked or crowded teeth or those whose teeth don’t meet correctly when they bite. When you have these problems it means that your teeth are more likely to get damaged or that you may be putting excessive strain on your jaw muscles; there are extreme cases when the abnormal development of teeth and the jaw will actually end up affecting the shape of a person’s face. Problems involving crooked or out of place teeth are quite common these days and especially affecting up to one third of children that are 12 years old; any such children will benefit greatly if they saw an orthodontist while it is still early.
If your child needs an orthodontist they will most likely get referred by your family dentist but if you know how the condition looks like you may want to go directly to one so you can seek early treatment. When orthodontic treatment is recommended you will choose the best orthodontist that you can come across or ask your dentist for a referral; you want to get referred to a reputed and experienced orthodontist and if you get one, there are chances that they will already be having many patients and, as a result, you can expect that there will be a sort of a waiting list.
The biggest complication that orthodontists have to deal with is tooth decay; our mouths are filled with bacteria that will combine with saliva and food particles to form a biofilm that is known as plaque which leads to tooth decay. If you find it difficult to keep your teeth clean you may want to do some additional brushing.
