When
the big day comes, one of our friendly assistants will show you to your private
banding room to begin the process of placing your appliances. At this
appointment, you'll get lots of information about wearing and caring for your
appliances. We'll also show you how to use your special toothbrush and
floss to keep your teeth perfectly healthy throughout treatment. After a
doctor-check, you'll be on your way, appliances in place.
Most
of your adjustment appointments, including your deband appointment, will take
place in the main clinic area. You'll have time to brush your teeth, see
the orthodontist, and ask any questions you may have about your treatment.
If you've kept your teeth clean and not broken any appliances, you'll be
rewarded with a trip to the prize cart for a pencil, note pad, sports bottle,
etc. Remember, better cooperation means better results in a shorter time.
Overall,
orthodontic treatment is a positive experience. Sure, there's some
discomfort, some extra tooth brushing, and some foods you can't eat, but nearly
everyone feels that the final result was well worth it. Feel free to contact
us anytime if you have questions about orthodontic treatment, or if you'd like
to schedule a FREE comprehensive examination.
