Do you have crooked teeth, bad bites and jaw problems?
Orthodontics is a result-oriented type of dentistry to enhance the positioning of the teeth. Yet, you still have to find the right place to receive quality care.
But before you end up with a final dental home, you may want to have an initial consultation. No idea what to do during this dental care phase? You can start by asking these questions:
1. What are the best available options for your orthodontic problem?
During an initial consultation, an orthodontist will assess your case and would even perform exams to have a better look of the problem. They may also ask questions about the difficulties you’re experiencing. So, make sure to answer honestly and clearly. They can give better help if you do so.
No other person knows best what dental treatment is appropriate for you than your orthodontist. They will surely give you options to choose from. If they don’t voluntarily make suggestions, you can always ask them.
2. What results can you expect from the available options?
If there are particular treatment options you are considering, ask the orthodontist the expected result for each of them. A clinic equipped with state of the art dental devices can give you a clear demonstration of a possible result.

Should you expect any discomfort? In what stage will it probably occur? A sincere orthodontist will orient you beforehand is there’s any and will even give you advice on how to relieve the pain.
