Braces Kosice

The first step is a professional examination, during which the orthodontist will assess the condition of your teeth, bite, and jaw. He or she will ask about your expectations and suggest the appropriate type of braces. The most common types include fixed braces, night braces, invisible braces, or metal braces.

This is followed by X-rays, dental impressions (or 3D scans), or photo documentation. This data is used by the dentist to accurately plan the treatment.

Your orthodontist will develop an individual treatment plan for you, including the approximate length of time you will wear your braces, the frequency of check-ups, and the cost, which largely depends on the type of braces. You can choose from the cheapest braces to modern clear braces that are almost invisible but more expensive.

With fixed braces, your dentist will glue brackets to your teeth and connect them with a wire. With invisible braces, you will receive your first set of clear aligners. The fitting is painless, but you may feel pressure or slight tension for the first few days.

Throughout your treatment, you will need to have check-ups with your dentist (usually every 4 to 6 weeks), during which your orthodontist will adjust your braces as needed.

After the treatment, your dentist will fit you with a so-called retention appliance, which will ensure that your teeth maintain their new position. It can be a removable or fixed wire. The length of time it is worn is individual and can last a few months, years, or be left on permanently.
