FAQs
Answers to Common Questions
Everything You Need to Know
Eligible Candidates for Orthodontic Treatment?
Orthodontic treatment may be suitable for children, teens, and adults with concerns such as crooked, crowded, spaced, or misaligned teeth. While treatment is not limited to younger patients, an orthodontic assessment around age 7 can help identify developing bite or alignment concerns early. Not every child needs treatment at that age, but early assessment can help determine the right timing and approach.
Adults may seek orthodontic treatment to improve smile appearance, bite function, or oral hygiene. Properly aligned teeth can be easier to clean and may support a healthier bite. Your dentist will assess your oral health and treatment goals to help determine whether orthodontic care is appropriate.
How much does orthodontic treatment cost and is it covered by insurance?
The cost of orthodontic treatment in North York depends on several factors, such as the type and duration of your treatment, the complexity of the case, and of course the orthodontist’s fees. The average cost of orthodontic treatment in Toronto may vary widely, depending on these factors. Some dental insurance plans may cover a portion of the cost of orthodontic treatment, but you should check with your insurance provider and your orthodontist before starting the treatment.
When should I see an orthodontist?
You should see an orthodontist if you have any concerns or issues with the appearance or function of your teeth and jaws, such as crooked, crowded, or protruding teeth, gaps or spaces between the teeth, or misaligned or uneven bite. You can also see an orthodontist if you want to improve your smile and boost your confidence.
What are the types of orthodontic appliances and how do they work?
Orthodontic appliances are devices that are used to move the teeth and jaw into their desired positions. There are two main types of orthodontic appliances: fixed and removable. Fixed appliances, such as braces, are attached to the teeth and can only be removed by the orthodontist. Removable appliances, such as aligners, can be taken out by the patient for eating, brushing, or flossing. Both types of appliances work by applying gentle and constant pressure on the teeth and jaws, causing them to shift gradually over time.
How long do I have to wear my orthodontic appliance?
The length of orthodontic treatment varies depending on the individual case, but it usually ranges from 6 months to 3 years. After the active phase of the treatment is completed, you may have to wear a retainer, which is a device that helps to maintain the results and prevent the teeth from relapsing. You should follow your orthodontist’s instructions on how to wear and care for your orthodontic appliance and retainer, and visit your orthodontist and dentist regularly for check-ups and adjustments. You should also maintain good oral hygiene and avoid foods and habits that may damage your appliance or teeth.
