The correct choice of adult orthodontics oral experts point out that the best period of orthodontics is girls 10 ~ 12 years old, boys 11 ~ 13 years old.
However, many adult patients, due to health, aesthetic, professional and social requirements, also very much want to have a set of neat and beautiful teeth.
So, adult dentition is not aligned can also be corrected?
What should adult orthodontics pay attention to?
Adult orthodontics: hospital selection is very important for adult orthodontic treatment compared with adolescents is very different, this is because the adult growth and development has been completed, maxillofacial bone suture has become bone fusion, plasticity is very low, and the adult metabolic rate is slow, biological response is reduced, increasing the difficulty of orthodontic treatment.
Compared with adolescents, orthodontics in adults is more complex, and malocclusion in adults is often accompanied by other oral diseases, such as caries, periodontal disease, tooth loss, tooth attrition, residual crown, residual root.
Before starting orthodontic treatment, it is necessary to fully control the periodontal disease of the tooth and remove the intraoral prosthesis, otherwise it will affect the wearing of the appliance and tooth movement.
Because adult orthodontics is more complex than children, so adults to orthodontic, must go to the regular dental hospital for a comprehensive examination of the oral cavity, the doctor will make a diagnosis according to your jaw and dentition development, choose the orthodontic method for you.
Adult orthodontics: Many adult friends have to pay attention to orthodontics to make the teeth more beautiful, but for a long time after wearing orthodontics “iron teeth” and concerns.
As a result, a variety of masking (that is, not easy to detect) orthodontic techniques emerged.
As soon as these technologies were introduced, they were warmly welcomed by the special demand class such as entertainers, lawyers, teachers, and civil servants who have high aesthetic or professional requirements and those who love beauty.
Orthodontic techniques are usually divided into three types, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, patients can choose according to their own situation.
The first is to install the appliance on the lingual side of the tooth for orthodontic treatment, also known as lingual orthodontic technology.
In this orthodontic method, the appliance is not visible from the outside during the correction, and the patient can still carry out various special work and social activities.
This appliance is one of the most technical orthodontics, the most complex clinical operation, the highest cost (30,000 ~ 50,000 yuan), and the patient’s comfort is poor, so the scope of clinical application is relatively narrow.
The second is the use of ceramic materials into treatments of the teeth color, commonly known as the ceramic braces, because it is similar to the teeth, correct when see only a half-hidden filaments, the correctional implement rectification efficiency highest, normal people think its imperceptibly changed the tooth arrangement, change a facial image, so most commonly used in clinic, its correct cost around 10000 yuan.
The third is the invisible orthodontic technology, which inherits the traditional orthodontic concept and is a perfect combination of modern stomatology, computer-aided three-dimensional diagnosis, personalized design and digital shaping technology.
It has the advantages of no bracket, beautiful and convenient, safe and comfortable, clean and hygienic, and can be put on at any time and the number of patients’ return visits is less. It is especially favored by white-collar people who love beauty.
However, the efficacy of this treatment is low, and it can only treat relatively simple cases, and the general cost is about 15,000 yuan.
