At Davis Family Orthodontics, we don’t merely align teeth; we orchestrate symphonies of smiles meticulously planned to resonate with individual aspirations. So, what does this roadmap look like? Let’s embark on this elucidative voyage together.
First Consultation
Your smile story begins with the first consultation. This isn’t just a clinical assessment; it’s a heart-to-heart conversation. We aim to understand the nuances of your dental architecture and your vision and apprehensions.
- The Visual Assessment: A visual inspection offers insights into orthodontic challenges before diving into detailed diagnostics.
- Symphony of Smiles: Every smile is unique. We discern your aspirations through discussions, aligning our plans with your smile dreams.
Comprehensive Evaluations
Precision in planning demands profound diagnostics. The orthodontic journey is underpinned by a suite of evaluations that provide panoramic insights.
- Photographic Perspectives: Detailed photographs of the face and teeth offer macroscopic perspectives, instrumental in tailoring treatments.
- Radiographic Revelations: X-rays provide the subterranean narrative, divulging details of root structures and jaw alignments.
- Impressionistic Models: Dental impressions metamorphose into models, tangible replicas offering 360-degree exploration.
The Treatment Blueprint
With diagnostic details at our fingertips, the treatment blueprint unfurls. This plan is a harmonized convergence of clinical imperatives and personal preferences.
- Aligning Strategies: Be it braces, aligners, or retainers, we delve into the spectrum of solutions, selecting the one that aligns with your needs.
- Time Trajectories: Duration matters. A realistic estimate ensures you’re mentally prepared for the smile marathon.
- Milestones and Meetings: Regular check-ins punctuate the journey. These milestones monitor progress and make requisite adjustments.
Financing and Options
A flawless smile shouldn’t be a financial strain. At Davis Family Orthodontics, we craft economic ensembles, ensuring the smile symphony doesn’t hit discordant financial notes.
- Transparent Tariffs: No hidden crescendos here. We ensure the cost structures are transparent and comprehensible.
- Flexible Financing: Tailored payment plans and options ensure that orthodontic endeavors resonate with budgetary boundaries.
Aftercare and Retention
The symphony doesn’t end with the removal of braces or the last aligner. The aftercare phase ensures the smile masterpiece remains pristine.
- Retainers and Routines: Retainers ensure teeth don’t revert to pre-treatment positions. They’re the guardians of your perfected smile.
- Continual Conversations: Periodic check-ins post-treatment ensure the smile remains on its orchestrated path.
Once braces are removed or aligners are no longer needed, the teeth tend to drift back to their original position. This phenomenon is due to the elastic nature of the periodontal ligament holding the teeth in the jawbone. The ligament tends to stretch during orthodontic treatment and will attempt to retract, thereby shifting the teeth.
Retainers are introduced to combat this natural tendency and maintain the newly achieved alignment. Think of retainers as the guardians of your new smile. They hold the teeth in their corrected position long enough for the periodontal ligament to adjust to its new form.
The journey to a radiant smile doesn’t end with the cessation of the primary orthodontic treatment. The aftercare phase ensures that the hard-won battles against misalignments and malocclusions are not lost. With dedicated aftercare and retention strategies, one can ensure their smile remains as radiant and flawless as on the day of unveiling.
