FAQ
What are clear aligners?
Clear aligners are removable, transparent trays that gradually move teeth into the desired position without using metal brackets or wires.
Can orthodontic problems be corrected in adults?
Yes, orthodontic problems can be corrected in adults; treatments such as braces, clear aligners, and other orthodontic appliances can effectively address issues like misaligned teeth, bite problems, and jaw alignment, improving both function and appearance.
Is orthodontic treatment painful?
Orthodontic treatment can cause some discomfort, especially after adjustments or when starting a new set of aligners, as the teeth are gradually moving. However, the discomfort is usually mild and temporary, often described as soreness or pressure, and can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
What insurances do you accept?
We participate with most major insurances and we accept Medicaid. See more in our Payment Options page.
How often should I visit the orthodontist during treatment?
During orthodontic treatment, you typically need to visit the orthodontist every 4 to 8 weeks for adjustments, progress checks, and to ensure the treatment is moving along as planned. The exact frequency can vary depending on the type of treatment and individual needs.
Why see an orthodontic specialist?
They are the dental professionals with the skills and experience to best treat orthodontic problems. Aligning teeth to function properly and look great, too, is what an orthodontic specialist does best.
What am I responsible for as the patient?
You are a partner in the process. Keep appointments, maintain oral hygiene, follow care instructions and continue to see your primary dentist.
