Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do braces and aligners work?
Braces and aligners work by gently applying continuous pressure to your teeth over time, gradually shifting them into their correct positions. Braces use brackets and wires, while clear aligners are custom-made plastic trays designed to fit snugly over your teeth.
Are clear aligners like Invisalign as effective as traditional braces?
Clear aligners can be just as effective as traditional braces for correcting mild to moderate alignment issues. However, for more complex cases, traditional braces may be recommended. Your orthodontist will determine the best option based on your specific needs.
How long does treatment with braces or aligners typically take?
Treatment times vary depending on the severity of the alignment issues and the type of treatment chosen. On average, braces are worn for 18-24 months, while aligners typically take 12-18 months. Your orthodontist will provide a more accurate timeline during your consultation.
Are there any dietary restrictions for braces or aligners?
With traditional braces, it’s best to avoid hard, sticky, or chewy foods that can damage the brackets or wires. For aligners, there are no food restrictions since they can be removed during meals, but you should avoid consuming food or beverages while wearing them.
How often do I need to visit the orthodontist during treatment?
For braces, visits are generally scheduled every 4-6 weeks to adjust the wires and monitor progress. For aligners, you’ll typically have appointments every 6-8 weeks to receive new trays and ensure the treatment is proceeding as planned.
Will braces or aligners be painful?
Some discomfort is normal, especially shortly after braces are tightened or when switching to a new set of aligners. This usually subsides within a few days and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief if necessary.
