Here are a few questions that Best Affordable Braces Voorhees can help you understand before you get your braces.

 

What to ask when getting braces?
This is a question that will be asked more than any other when getting braces. The number one question asked is what else is needed to get braces? The answer to this question is not as simple as it sounds.

What are the 5 stages of braces?
In the first stage, you are wearing a retainer that can be fixed or removable. There are cases when people feel uncomfortable with this stage because it may feel like a mouthguard. In those cases, they can opt for the second stage, which is a transparent plastic retainer that can be inserted into the cleft between the teeth. But it will be much more difficult to clean all the debris and food that may be trapped in between the teeth.

What are the 4 types of braces?
In the simplest terms there are 4 types of braces and each is designed to help the teeth align properly so the bite is correct, they are; Inlays/Expanders Inline braces Orthodontics Clear aligners, and Porcelain Valsalva Devices.

What are the do’s and don’ts of braces?
The best of them are the do-it-yourself braces that you can get from your dentist. They are a great solution for patients who don’t want to wear a heavy, ugly metal brace that is unattractive, to say the least. The do-it-yourself braces use one-size-fits-all material that you can customize for your teeth. You simply have to return to your dentist after one year to get your new braces placed. This is the best of the worst scenarios.

How long do braces last?
Your orthodontist can give you an accurate prediction of how long your braces will last based on your dental situation. If you have damaged teeth that are in the process of growing back, your orthodontist may recommend that you wear retainers after the teeth have fully recovered. If you have partially erupted teeth (in which case, they are held back by the upper teeth) and partially erupting teeth, braces may prevent them from fully coming out of the gums. If you have impacted teeth, the orthodontist can predict how they will behave, such as their eruption into the mouth and their movement.
