Prior to being fitted with your braces your dentist will need to ensure that your teeth are in good healthy shape. This could mean taking care of any fillings that are needed, performing root canal therapy or extracting teeth that have otherwise been contributing to overcrowding in the mouth.
Once this has been taken care of, you’ll be ready for the braces to be affixed to your teeth. The entire procedure should take just one visit and you’ll be able to resume your day.
Those who have new metal or ceramic braces are encouraged to alter their diet temporarily. There should be no pain during the procedure and there should be no pain once the braces are in place. There may however be a little bit of sensitivity and tenderness as patients adjust to the sensation of the new braces. Adjusting a diet to include softer foods can also help to ensure that the tenderness is minimised. 
Perhaps one of the best advantages to fixed braces is that they are exceptionally effective at resolving a number of orthodontic concerns. They may take a bit longer than some other orthodontic solutions but they can treat a wider range of concerns.
For those who are looking for purely cosmetic solutions, some of the other orthodontic options might be the better option.
Fixed braces are very visible. This can be quite concerning to teenagers and even adults who perhaps don’t want a mouth of visible braces. The ceramic braces do offer a more discreet alternative to their metal counterparts.
Fixed braces are amongst the most affordable in orthodontic options. This makes them an attractive option for patients of all ages. -
I was very lucky to come across Crown Dental 8 years ago. While other dentists were offering extremely complicated and unaffordable treatments, Erika came up with a much simpler and affordable solution to my issues. I have been going to Crown Dental all these years and have got all my dental work done there: crowns, extractions, cleanings and check-ups... I would definitely recommend Erika and her team in Crown Dental to anyone looking for a top quality, reliable and friendly dentist.

I've been a patient at Crown Dental for over 6 years. When I was younger I played professional Rugby and lost a good number of my front teeth due to a freak-accident (knee in the face). For years I had a denture, which was a hassle to eat with. It also made me self conscious in social interactions, until I could bare it no longer. Crown Dental was recommended to me and it literally changed my life in so many ways! Over this period I had 4 implants, 5 crowns, 1 bridge and several root canals done, along with a couple of fillings and cleanings. I now have an amazing smile that all my friends and family are complimenting me about, it restored my confidence and gave me a brighter outlook on life. Thank you Dr. Erika for changing 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.

The injection doctor was very patient and very nice. These two stars are for the doctor's attitude. Otherwise, I would give negative stars. The lip injection was not that painful, was acceptable，but I was not satisfied with the shape of my lips. Also the lower lip should be thicker than the upper lip, but my lower lip is very thin compared to my upper lip. According to what I asked, they only used With a 0.6-0.7ml lip filler, shouldn’t we make the best use of all 1ml? The price I purchased is also 1ml. Moreover, I could ask in advance and tell me to use the coupon they gave me, but in the end I was not allowed to use it even after I checked it out, which made my mood worse today and my desire to patronize again in the future.

Myself and my family has seen Dr. Erika Barta regularly. Crown Dental helped our family in many ways, we always attend for regular check-ups and cleanings. And also got implants and bridges done by Crown Dental. The staff is very helpful and professional. The environment is very relaxed, you don't feel going to the dentist 🙂 . I always recommend the clinic to my friends.

May 1, 2020Both 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.
