What does Braces treatment in Pennsville look like?
Starting braces treatment with Stavisky Orthodontics begins with a detailed assessment. Our team captures detailed digital x-rays, photographs, and molds of your oral structure. This data forms the foundation of a tailored treatment strategy, addressing your own personal orthodontic requirements. Our strategy outlines the intricate movements each tooth must undergo for the best alignment, guiding precise placement of your brackets.
Upon securing the brackets, we introduce a wire, putting specialized pressure on targeted teeth. This jumpstarts the 'remodeling' phase, a progression that gently guides teeth to their desired positions. The wire's bends trigger specific tooth movements, facilitated by bone adaptations around the tooth roots. As braces apply pressure, osteoblasts and osteoclasts—specialized cells—emerge around the tooth root. This dynamic, in tandem with the wire, results in bone removal on one tooth side and regeneration on the opposite, ensuring precise tooth movement.
However, the remodeling process demands sustained pressure. Post-brace removal, teeth will start to revert to their original positions. That's why patients must remember to keep using their retainer. This helps prevent your newly-aligned teeth from drifting and keeps your radiant smile intact.
Pennsville Braces Options
Traditional metal braces, known for their efficiency, often excel in swiftly closing dental gaps and aligning teeth, potentially reducing your overall treatment duration. On the other hand, our LightForce clear braces offer a modern, discreet alternative without compromising on effectiveness.
Metal Braces
Metal braces consist of brackets, which are small squares bonded directly to the front of each tooth. These brackets hold archwires that are threaded through them. Tiny elastic bands, known as ligatures, secure the archwires to the brackets. The archwires, when adjusted by the orthodontist, apply pressure on the teeth, guiding them to their desired positions. The benefits of today's metal braces are widespread:
Effectiveness: Metal braces are highly effective in treating a wide range of dental misalignments, from simple to complex cases.
Durability: Made of stainless steel, they are robust and can withstand daily wear and tear.
Customization: Patients can choose colorful bands to add a touch of personalization to their braces, making the orthodontic journey a bit more fun.
LightForce Clear Braces
LightForce represents a revolutionary approach in orthodontics, being the first digitally planned and 3D-printed system. These clear braces are fully customized, offering a perfect fit for each patient's unique dental structure.
The treatment plan involves two primary 3D-printed components: the tray and the braces. Once approved, these components are printed and ready for application. The LightTray, crafted from a specialized material, ensures accurate and swift bonding of the brackets.
The benefits are numerous:
