What Are Braces?
Braces are dental tools that help correct problems with your teeth, like crowding, crooked teeth, or teeth that are out of alignment. Many people get braces when they’re teenagers, but adults get them too. As you wear them, braces slowly straighten and align your teeth so you have a normal bite. Some people get braces to adjust their smile.
If you have crooked teeth and/or a misaligned bite (an underbite or overbite), there are a variety of treatments that can help straighten teeth, including braces and retainers, custom-made, removable or fixed tools that cover the outside of your teeth and help keep them in position. Learn more about how to tell if you have an overbite.
Many general dentists do basic alignment and treat other tooth problems, but orthodontists specialize in correcting issues with your teeth. An orthodontist has 2 to 3 years of advanced orthodontic education and training beyond dental school. They specialize in straightening teeth, correcting misaligned bites, and jaw problems.
The dentist or orthodontist you choose will ask questions about your health, do a clinical exam, take a digital scan of your teeth, take photos of your face and teeth, and order X-rays of the mouth and head. They’ll come up with a treatment plan based on this information.
Starting orthodontic treatment during the current pandemic
As I stated, there has never been a better time to be an orthodontic patient, even during the current pandemic. Most states are resuming elective medical and dental procedures, and orthodontic offices are beginning to see patients once again.
Understandably, the public may have concerns about coming in to orthodontic offices and certainly the elderly and those with underlying medical conditions should be cautious. Fortunately, dentistry, including the specialty of orthodontics, has always had very high standards in sterilization, infection control and environmental disinfection with an excellent record in preventing the transmission of bacterial and viral diseases in our offices. Providing a safe environment for our patients and our staff is our profession’s highest priority.
