Focus On Your Smile This Year!

Focus On Your Smile This Year!

Did you know that the first thing the majority of people notice about you is your smile? A great smile is not only more attractive but also healthier.  Straight teeth are easier to clean, function better when eating, and wear better over the course of your life as an orthodontic office can attest.  If you feel your smile needs a major overhaul or just a minor touch-up you should consider visiting your local orthodontist.

These are some ways that getting that smile you love has never been easier.

• Meeting With An Orthodontist Is Now More Convenient And Typically Complementary. 

Many Orthodontic practices offer both in-office and virtual consultations.  During an in-office consultation you will meet with an orthodontist for an examination and can discuss treatment options.  Virtual consultations allow patients to contact the orthodontic office from the convenience of their home or office using your mobile phone. They can go over initial treatment options and treatment pricing before scheduling the initial in-office consultation.

• There Are Many Options For Orthodontic Treatment  

From comprehensive orthodontic treatment to limited treatment to fix that one tooth you don’t like, an orthodontist can go over all your options and you can decide what customized treatment fits your desires, time frame, and budget.  You will be surprised how affordable and timely orthodontic treatment can be, as our friends at East Tennessee Orthodontics know well within their own practice.

• There Are Many Options To Move Teeth   

Metal braces are just one way to straighten teeth these days.  Other types of braces include clear braces, gold braces, customized 3D printed braces and even braces that are placed on the backside of your teeth where no one can see.  Besides braces, clear aligners such as Invisalign can be worn to move teeth and give you that healthy confident smile you have always wanted.  Invisalign clear aligners are a series of plastic trays that move teeth like braces.  Orthodontists are the ideal doctors to provide clear aligner treatment due to their vast training around moving teeth.  Some orthodontic practices now also offer clear aligners that are fabricated in their offices to help make this newest form of treatment much more cost effective.

• All Treatment Is More Comfortable, Efficient, And Shorter

From new wires developed by the Navy to digital tooth scanning technology, orthodontic treatment is much more comfortable and less painful than it once was.  Most offices are now impression free (no more goopy dental impressions) from records to aligners and retainers they use scanners and 3D printing for models to give patients the most comfortable experience possible.

• Cost Is More Affordable Than Ever

Orthodontic treatment can be financed in-house in most offices.  Payments can be stretched out over the course of treatment so orthodontic offices can find a customized treatment that work within their patient’s budgets.  Now is the time to go check out your options and get the smile you’ve always dreamed of!
