How much does orthodontic treatment cost?

What is orthodontics?

By definition, orthodontics is the dental speciality of straightening teeth and correcting malocclusions (bites).

What is the difference between traditional metal braces and Invisalign aligners?

Traditional metal braces move your teeth through individual brackets (braces) that are temporarily bonded to the front surface of each tooth. A series of wires are used to apply pressure to your teeth by engaging into the brackets (braces). These wires are changed and/or re-activated every 4-6 weeks in the orthodontic office. Invisalign moves your teeth through a series of removable plastic trays (aligners).

How does Invisalign work?

Invisalign can be equally as effective in treating a variety of orthodontic problems as traditional braces.

If I get braces, how long do I have to wear them?

The length of your orthodontic treatment and time wearing braces or Invisalign is dependent on the complexity of your desired tooth movement. Minor or limited tooth movement can be accomplished in a few months while more extensive and complex tooth movement can take 2-3 years to complete. At your initial complimentary consultation, Dr. Veil or Dr. Wild will review your orthodontic needs and specific treatment.
