Frequently asked questions

  • Initial Exam: This involves assessing the teeth and jaws through X-rays, photos, and impressions/scans to create a personalized treatment plan.
  • Teeth Prep: Any necessary preparations, like extractions or fillings, are made to ensure teeth are ready for braces.
  • Braces On: Brackets are bonded, and wires are threaded to apply gentle pressure, guiding teeth into alignment.
  • Check-ups: Regular visits allow for adjustments and monitoring of progress.
  • Braces Off: Once teeth are aligned, the braces are removed, revealing the new smile.
  • Retention: Retainers are worn to maintain the corrected tooth positions and prevent shifting.

 

Orthodontic treatment focuses on correcting misaligned teeth and jaws, improving oral health and aesthetics. This is achieved through various appliances like braces, aligners, and retainers, which apply gentle pressure to guide teeth into their optimal positions, enhancing both function and appearance.

Nowadays, at York Orthodontics, we use 3D imaging techniques to create precise digital models of our patients' mouths. This modern approach eliminates the need for messy impressions and provides an extremely accurate foundation for crafting tailored treatment plans. By embracing this technology, we can offer our patients enhanced comfort, faster treatments, and more discrete orthodontic solutions.

The duration of orthodontic treatment depends on the severity of malocclusion, ranging from a few months to several years. On average, treatment times fall between 12 and 36 months with the goal of achieving a healthy, functional, and aesthetically pleasing smile.
