Pediatric orthodontic services in Orlando

Services Offered by Your Orthodontist

Orthodontic specialists offer a number of different treatment options that can improve the way your top and bottom teeth fit together when biting or chewing. These same procedures can often improve your appearance and can promote a more beautiful smile. Some of the most popular services we offer at Main Street Children's Dentistry and Orthodontics of Windermere are listed here:

• Braces are designed to straighten crooked teeth to improve your appearance and to create a more even look and feel for your teeth. Brackets and wires are used to move teeth into the desired position gradually. At Main Street Children's Dentistry and Orthodontics of Windermere, we offer a variety of types of braces in Orlando to help our patients find the perfect solutions for their dental requirements.
• Clear aligner trays are another method of realigning teeth to the correct position. These orthodontic options are removable and are used to correct slight misalignments over time.

What Are the Different Types of Braces?

Your orthodontist in Orlando will recommend the most appropriate treatment options for your teeth and your level of misalignment. You can choose from a variety of treatment options and types of braces, including the following:

• Traditional braces use brackets that are affixed to individual teeth and then connected with wires, which are gradually tightened to move teeth into alignment. Ceramic options work in the same way but are less noticeable because they use clear or tooth-colored materials for the brackets. These orthodontic systems take months or years to achieve the desired results.
• Invisalign systems are somewhat more expensive and consist of a series of customized plastic trays that are designed to fit your teeth perfectly. These trays apply pressure in the right areas to move slightly or moderately misaligned teeth back into position. Patients usually go through a series of trays that are switched out every two weeks or so. Invisalign trays can be easily removed for cleaning and allow you to brush and floss your teeth without wires and brackets getting in the way of this process. Invisalign is a great option for adult braces and for teenagers who are concerned about their appearance. Because this system is nearly invisible while being worn, it can allow the correction of misaligned teeth without the metallic look of other orthodontics solutions.
• Retainers are another way in which your teeth can be realigned or maintained in their corrected position. The orthodontic professionals at Main Street Children's Dentistry and Orthodontics of Windermere may recommend that you wear a retainer for a period of time after your teeth have been realigned using other methods. Retainers are removable and are available in a range of options and materials to suit your specific set of needs.

At Main Street Children's Dentistry and Orthodontics of Windermere, our team of orthodontic specialists can provide you with the practical guidance and the right services to create the smile you have always wanted at a price you can afford.

How Much Do Braces Cost?

The cost of your orthodontic treatment will depend on the amount of correction required, the system you choose and the number of visits you need to achieve the desired results. More extensive realignments often cost more than minor adjustments in the position of your teeth. Invisalign systems are usually somewhat more expensive than comparable metal braces.

If you are concerned about the cost of your treatment, we can help. Main Street Children's Dentistry and Orthodontics of Windermere accepts many dental insurance plans and can sometimes offer payment options that can reduce the impact of realigning your teeth on your budget. We work with you to make your braces in Orlando as affordable as possible.
