Choosing the right orthodontist requires a bit of research. You’ve likely narrowed down the field to providers in your area or near where you work, and now you want to find the right match.
Is the Patient a Child, Teen, or Adult?
Orthodontic treatment for children can be very different than for teens and adults. For young children with high-risk orthodontic issues, phase one, or early intervention can be used to prevent complex orthodontic needs later on.
Teens can be treated with wires and brackets or removable clear braces if they are mature enough to comply with the instructions. Adults often choose removable clear braces, as they are effective yet discreet.
Technology
An orthodontic practice that offers digital impressions and imaging, as well as the latest orthodontic techniques may appeal to you as they provide clear detail and fast service.
Variety of Orthodontic Options
When it comes to braces, you may prefer options. What works for one person may not be right for you, so an orthodontist that offers fixed, removable, and faster options for milder cases of dental crowding or misalignment can provide you with the perfect solution.
Experience and Skill
Many people receive orthodontic treatment from general dentists that have taken additional training. This works in some cases, but you must decide if you prefer to be seen by a specialist. A board-certified orthodontist has more training, experience, and skill in this dental specialty than general dentists.
