Health Question & Answer


Answers:
1. If your canines are coming in crooked, then YES, you will need braces.

2. Orthodontists are the specialized dentist who straighten the crooked teeth.

3. They will place the brackets and bands on your teeth.

4. Then they attach a wire through the sloughts (with ligature) of those brackets.

5. Since the wire is preformed with ideal shape of an arch, the teeth attached to that wire through the ligature get pulled into proper alignment.

6. I am providing you with a link where you can look at different pictures to get an idea as to how braces work :

7. Canines are the front teeth (1 on either side).

8. A Canine is usually the 3rd one from the midline with a pointed edge.

9. Usually, when you see an Orthodontist, the braces are placed during the 3rd visit.

This is what you can expect :

i) 1st visit : The consultation

ii) 2nd visit : The records (impression, x-rays, etc.).

They can also show you the before and after pictures using computer simulation programs, provided the Orthodontist has that software.

iii) 3rd visit : You get the braces put on.

If your Orthodontist wants to save time, they can combine the 1st and the 2nd visit.

iv) Therefore, the earliest that you can have the braces put on will be the day of the 2nd appointment.

NOTE :

This schedule is true provided you don't need any other work (e.g., fillings, cleaning, extractions, etc.) done before the treatment can commence.Health Question & Answer

Canine teeth are simply the name given to the four teeth that are each located 3rd from the middle on both sides of your mouth, up and down. Orthodontists will check to see if you need braces, and if you do, they will give you braces. These little buggers forcefully realign your teeth, fixing any dental imperfections. It's not a big deal. Don't fret.Health Question & Answer
