At Ivory Dental, our highly trained orthodontists set us apart and they are ready to provide quality orthodontic care. Dr. Bonciel Griffin-Burress, a native Chicagoan who grew up on the south and west sides of Chicago, is a second generation orthodontist, who is dedicated to educating and improving the smiles of her patients in the community in which she serves.
We use scanners to avoid taking messy impressions and low emitting digital x-rays to decrease radiation exposure. When choosing the right type of braces, consider the severity of your condition and your treatment goals. You and your orthodontist can decide on the best treatment plan together. Metal braces are strong, extremely effective and the traditional choice for straightening teeth.
Although wearing braces is an adjustment, it doesn't have to completely change your lifestyle. Knowing how to properly maintain and care for your braces is the key to successful long-term orthodontic treatment. Just because you have braces doesn't mean you must stop doing the things you love - like playing sports.
Proper brushing and flossing while wearing braces are critical steps in maintaining your oral health preventing gum disease and tooth decay. Brushing with braces is very much like brushing your teeth without braces, but with a little more care. Like normal, it is recommended that you brush twice per day and after each meal.
From overcrowded teeth to underbites and overbites and issues losing baby teeth, children need orthodontic treatment for several reasons. It is recommended that children see an orthodontist when their permanent teeth come in but it's never too early to start focusing on a plan for teeth and jaw correction.
