Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontics
For most patients, getting a beautiful smile is the main reason for orthodontic care. If you are insecure or self-conscious about your smile, correcting your concerns with orthodontic treatment (braces) will greatly improve the way you look and feel.
Once your treatment is finished, you will have the smile you dreamt of and the newfound confidence to show it off! We also want you to feel comfortable throughout your entire dental orthodontic journey, and the team at Peak Family Dental in Cranbrook is committed to making sure you receive the quality care you need.
How Dental Orthodontic Treatment Works
Orthodontic appliances are made of plastic, metal, or ceramic. They may be removable, or they could be brackets bonded to the teeth. By placing a gentle and constant force in a controlled direction, braces slowly move the teeth to the correct position.
Duration of Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic Treatment time varies, and usually lasts between one and three years, based on factors including age, treatment method, and severity of case. A key factor in successful treatment is you! The more diligent you are with care and treatment, the better the outcome will be. For children, receiving early treatment can also help provide a quicker treatment time, versus waiting later in life.
Before starting your dental orthodontic care, your doctor will review all available options and provide an educated estimate for how long the total treatment may take.
