Early Treatment
Early orthodontic treatment is dental intervention before your child’s permanent teeth erupt (except for the third molars). Early intervention may help prevent the improper alignment and growth of your child’s permanent teeth. There are different early orthodontic treatment options available, and the treatment recommended will depend on your child’s specific dental issues.
Adult Treatment
As we age our dental needs shift. Throughout our lives, we may need different dental services and dental care for problems that weren’t addressed properly when we were kids such as a crooked bite or improperly aligned teeth. Life gets busy, and sometimes our teeth are left on the back burner. The professional team at Orthodontic Solutions for Children and Adults is proud to offer adult dental services.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners have the same goal as traditional braces, but they only consist of a strong plastic tray. And over time, patients switch to a new clear aligner every few weeks until their teeth have moved to the desired position. If you want to boost your well-being and do what’s best for your dental health, try clear aligners today!
Metal Braces
Traditional braces are orthodontic devices typically made of metal or ceramic. They consist of three parts; brackets, wires, and bands. The brackets are attached to your teeth, while the wires and bands are connected to those brackets. The wires pull your teeth to the desired position over time.
Invisalign
Invisalign is the brand name for clear tray aligners that fit on your top and bottom rows of teeth. Invisalign uses a proprietary blend of clear plastic to create sets of customized aligners for patients. The strong plastic in each aligner applies pressure to your teeth to shift their position, leaving you with properly aligned teeth and an improved smile at the end of treatment.
Kids Special Needs
Young children with Special Needs will naturally be apprehensive about dental procedures. Even the simplest or most routine approach can often require a certain level of comfort to relax the patient enough to properly carry out what is needed to be done. It is extremely beneficial for kids with Special Needs to become used to dental procedures early on in their lives, as it will more likely reduce their anxiety as adults for more complicated procedures.
Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic Surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, is a specialized procedure designed to correct skeletal and dental irregularities that cause functional problems like difficulty chewing and speaking as well as aesthetic concerns with facial symmetry. By repositioning the jawbones, surgeons can improve bite alignment, enhance facial features, and alleviate pain associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
Retention
After your braces are removed, your teeth are at risk of shifting back. To prevent this our dentist will give you a retainer. There are several types of retainers, but all of them keep your teeth in place after your braces are removed. Regular check-ups at Orthodontic Solutions for Children and Adults is crucial to monitor retainer fit and effectiveness, ensuring long-term stability of the straightened teeth and a lasting smile. Neglecting retainer wear can lead to teeth shifting back, potentially requiring further orthodontic intervention to regain the desired alignment.
