Getting braces is a big step. It's natural to be a little nervous. At Shasta Orthodontics we strive to make your orthodontic consult fun and informative. To make your visit to our office stress-free here's what you can expect for your orthodontic consultation. We collect this information upfront so our insurance experts can contact your insurance company before your consultation.
These days braces for kids are the norm on playgrounds and in schools. Frankly speaking, almost all children would benefit from some degree of orthodontic treatment. For some, it is purely cosmetic. What child (or adult, for that matter) wouldn't have greater self-esteem with a bright, beautiful smile?
The number of adults with braces has risen by 40 percent in the last 10 years, according to the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO). In a 2014 study, the most recent figures available, the AAO reported that more than 1.4 million patients were adults. Believe it or not, about half of all Dr. McCarthy's adult patients were referred to her by their dentists.
I highly recommend it to everyone. Dr. Karen McCarthy is a great woman orthodontist and she is beautiful. She is helpful, intelligent, compassionate, friendly, gentle, caring, hardworking, and dedicated to her job. She is extremely amazing and she did a great job of my braces. I'm so grateful to her Dr.
At Shasta Orthodontics, we do not offer removable braces systems like Invisalign. In my 25+ years as an orthodontist, I have evaluated Invisalign in depth and, more tellingly, I have had many patients who were treated with Invisalign before they visited my office. I have been consistently disappointed with the results of this kind of orthodontic.
