Guide To Getting Braces

Guide To Getting Braces

Whether you’re 13 or 35, getting braces can prove to be effective at straightening a crooked smile. With the right orthodontic solutions, you’ll be able to achieve a healthy and beautifully straight smile. There are a number of types of braces available today. The one that works for you will depend on a number of factors. The condition of your teeth and your timeline for straightening your teeth will need to be considered.

At Crown Dental we offer a number of choices in braces. Fixed braces and lingual braces are just two of the types that we can offer to our patients. The best way to determine which type of braces is right for you is to discuss your goals with your orthodontist.

How do braces work?

Get results you love

When they are in place, braces use steady gentle pressure to gradually move teeth into the desired positions. All braces typically work in the same manner, with gradual pressure moving teeth into their new positions.

The process is slow, steady and should not cause any discomfort for patients once they are used to wearing the braces.

The process is very much the same for all orthodontic solutions. Gradual steady pressure to realign teeth.

Will braces hurt?

Some patients do feel minor discomfort when their braces are first fitted. This is more often than not due to the strange way that it feels to have braces. Further discomfort may be felt once the teeth start to gradually move.
Some patients do report an ache in their jaw or minor irritation against the inside of their cheeks or lips.

This is all typically discomfort that can be controlled with over the counter pain medications. Some tips for braces first day of wear include taking it easy on the food and drink enjoyed. Try to avoid engaging in any activities that could potentially result in a blow to the face. And be certain you contact your orthodontist if the pain is beyond mild or if there is any bleeding.

Am I a good candidate for getting braces?

No two patients are alike, so no two treatment plans will be alike. Braces can treat a number of orthodontic concerns, including the following.

  • Excessive overbite
  • Excessive underbite
  • Crowding of the upper or lower front teeth
  • Teeth are spaced too far apart
  • Past thumb sucking that led to issues with teeth positioning
  • and of course Crooked Teeth

This is of course by no means an extensive list of the issues that braces can help to correct in both adults and children. A consultation with an orthodontist will help to determine whether orthodontic solutions will help to correct some of the concerns patients have.

How long will I have to wear my braces?
-dublin Every patient and every mouth is different. This means that the length of time that braces have to stay in place will vary. Following the instructions of the orthodontist and keeping up with routine checkups will help to keep the treatment plan on track. There are some types of braces that can achieve results in as few as six months.

  • Great dentists and friendly staff! I had bone augmentation, 2 implants and 3 crowns done. The whole process took about a year due to the complexity but it certainly was worth it. I am delighted with the results and will happily recommend the clinic to my friends and family.

    I was always very conscious of my teeth, never showed them on pictures. It was the best decision of my life to get braces at Crown Dental. I can honestly say it changed my life. I can't stop smiling, it boosted my confidence, I feel like a different person. Thank you dr. Laura for changing my life.

  • I went for a check up at Crown Dental two weeks ago, after looking at my teeth for approximately 30 seconds the dentist told me I had been grinding my teeth therefore needing a mouthguard/splint and had three cavities. I was shocked as I had no prior issues with my teeth and was not experiencing any sensitivity. I was very distressed that my teeth had deteriorated so rapidly I wanted to get a second opinion. I went to a different dentist in Dublin and I was told my teeth were 100% fine. Therefore I would NOT recommend visiting this dentist.

    Both myself and my husband have been Dr Erika's patients for over a decade. Crown dental is the cleanest, most equipped dental practice I have ever been to. Both dentists and the nurses are highly qualified and are brilliant with nervous patients. My husband had a dental implant done here with A+ results. Their prices are highly competitive but without compromising on quality. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

  • Getting an Invisalign treatment done here. Erika and her assistant are extremely nice people, not once did I ever feel pressured into forking out lots of money like at other dentists. I would 100% recommend family and friends to at least have a check up here and you'll see that it's a positive and professional experience all round.

    Done, two teeth filling here. Second one they had to redo because of their fault. During that second time I had to ask to stop drilling several times, because my jaw started uncontrollable spasms. After this rework pain became unstoppable and I had to remove nerves during vacation (spent 3 days for that). That doctor admitted that both fillings were made without the cofferdam, for cavities under them to grow and need to be redone. Also they've missed a big smelly cavity next to that tooth even while having 3!!! X-rays of that area. I don't recommend doing fillings there, because you will need to return soon for their upsale of veneer or expensive nerve removal. Also they are not cheap by any means.

    I just had a visit with Dr Joanna today for a routine clean and to ask about veneers . during the consultation she noticed something more sinister with an infection that's been going on for over 15yrs . she was so informative,caring and really listened to all my questions and worries. most dentists I find are just there to make money but I found wirh joanna that she really wanted to help and not rush into veneers when there was concerns with my gums I may have a longer road then expected but I know I'm in good hands 🙏
