Have a Healthy and Genuine Smile With Orthodontic Treatment
Wayne Chirisa believes that you can give a genuine smile from your heart but an attractive and healthy smile requires visiting an orthodontist. Today, you can have your misaligned teeth repaired with customized orthodontic devices that work quickly. Modern orthodontic facilities have state-of-the-art computer software that will design braces or Invisalign aligners that will apply the best pressure on your teeth. This means that your orthodontic treatment time is reduced, making it easier to have a gorgeous smile faster. The only way to know what type of orthodontic device is appropriate for your teeth is by scheduling an appointment at a nearby orthodontic office.
What Happens During an Orthodontic Examination?
At an orthodontic office, the office staff will collect your insurance information before a hygienist takes medical images of your face and mouth. An orthodontist will examine these medical images before providing a physical examination of your teeth. With computer software, you can see what your teeth will look like in the future with orthodontic treatment along with what will happen to your face without any treatment. This information can help you make a decision concerning wearing aligners for a year or wearing braces for up to four years.
