Orthodontics for Children
With orthodontics, a bright smile is within reach at any age. The Canadian Association of Orthodontists and the American Association of Orthodontists emphasize the importance of an initial consultation around the age of 7. This evaluation will identify and intercept certain problems that require early intervention to avoid future complications.
It should be noted that interceptive treatment at a young age is often followed by a second phase of treatment in the permanent dentition. At the time of the consultation, we will be able to suggest the best course of action for your child.
Orthodontics for Teenagers
The majority of orthodontic treatment is done during adolescence, a time when the permanent dentition is usually complete. At this stage of development, orthodontic movements are optimized because the body is still growing, making treatment easier and more effective.
This stage of life offers an ideal window of opportunity to correct a variety of problems, ensuring a harmonious smile and improved dental function for years to come.
Orthodontics for Adults
Orthodontic treatment is not just for the young! More and more adults are choosing to correct their smiles, encouraged by technological advances that make these treatments more discreet and comfortable than ever before.
Today, thanks to these innovations, it’s possible to benefit from orthodontic corrections that are almost invisible to others. Whether you want to improve your appearance or solve long-standing dental problems, today’s orthodontic solutions offer flexibility and discretion to meet the needs and lifestyles of adults.
Braces
Orthodontic braces, whether metal or clear, are two popular options for patients seeking a harmonious smile.
Traditional and effective, metal braces are known for their durability and effectiveness in treating a wide range of dental problems and malocclusions. They give orthodontists great precision in moving teeth, which is critical to achieving optimal results.
On the other hand, clear braces appeal to those looking for a more discreet solution. Made of materials such as ceramics or hard plastics, they blend with the natural colour of the teeth, for improved aesthetics during treatment. Although clear braces may require more delicate care and maintenance, they are an attractive alternative for adults and teens who are concerned about their appearance.
Whether you choose the strength and effectiveness of metal braces or the discretion of clear braces, today’s advancements guarantee treatment tailored to your specific needs and aesthetic preferences.
Invisalign
Invisalign uses a set of custom-made, clear, removable aligners. They discreetly correct misaligned teeth without the use of wires or metal brackets.
The aligners, which are custom-made from a detailed study and 3D scans of the patient’s mouth, are designed to be changed at regular intervals in order to move the teeth into their ideal position. They must be worn at all times for the treatment to be effective.
This method is particularly attractive to adults and teenagers who are looking for an aesthetic and comfortable solution, as it allows them to continue their daily lives without major dietary or aesthetic restrictions.
