Did you know that over 4 million people in the United States wear braces? If you have ever thought about getting braces, or if you are already in the process of getting them, you aren't alone. Braces are one of the most popular dental alignments in the dental industry today, along with the Invisalign® system. Fortunately, WestLake Dental Care offers both braces and Invisalign® to our patients so you can enjoy a straighter smile, your way!
Procedure Details:
Braces are used to correct a variety of dental alignment issues, such as:
If you have any of these alignment issues, braces can help to correct them and give you a straighter, more even smile.
The actual length of time it takes to place braces can be anywhere from one to two hours. However, the entire braces process can take anywhere from six months to four years. This is because the length of the braces process varies from patient to patient. However, if you have severe dental alignment issues, it may take longer. Additionally, the type of braces that you choose can also affect the length of the treatment.
Some patients experience discomfort when they first get braces. However, this is typically only temporary and should only last for a few days. If you do experience any pain or discomfort, you can take over-the-counter pain medication to help alleviate the symptoms. Additionally, our staff will provide you with instructions on how to care for your new braces so that you can minimize any discomfort.
