Adult Orthodontic Treatment Temecula CA The field of orthodontics involves the study of jaw functionality as well as tooth alignment. Any patient struggling with jaw misalignment or teeth misalignment can experience considerable pain and discomfort both along the jaw as well as inside the oral cavity. It can make it difficult to chew and eat.While most people think of children as the ones in need of help with regard to these issues, that is not the case any longer. Now more than ever, adults are making up a larger proportion of those patients wearing braces. They are taking control of their orthodontic care and getting braces. The good news is now they are not just limited to metal braces. There are more options than ever before. Gone are the days when patients had to suffer with but one choice. For those adults who are considering braces, why not come into our Temecula office and find out more? We are always willing to go over the options with our patients at Roncone Orthodontics, and educate them on their choices. Impacts of Orthodontic TreatmentSome people might think the choice to get braces is done out of vanity but correcting misaligned teeth or a misaligned jaw goes beyond just that. While there is an obvious improvement to the patient's smile, there are other improvements as well. By straightening teeth, we limit the areas where food and bacteria can linger. They are easier to brush and floss which also stymies the progression of tooth decay. Treatment OptionsThe first question asked by anyone who has decided to get braces is how long they will need to wear them to get to their treatment goal. It seems like a logical question. While moving teeth by using pressure has not changed with regard to conventional braces treatments, the methods have improved greatly. Patients no longer have to suffer through wearing braces for years and years. With new orthodontic treatments, patients usually will be out of their braces in under 18 months. This length of time will be largely dependent upon the type of treatment they need and how closely they follow instructions. Conventional braces with metal brackets and wires tightened to get teeth to move are not the only option available. Braces made of ceramic are now able to be tinted to either match the patient's teeth coloring or made clear, so they look invisible. There are also clear aligner trays which can be removed to eat or to brush and floss. These are gaining popularity in recent years. Because they can be removed for proper oral hygiene, they help to keep the oral cavity healthy.
