Types of Braces: Got Questions?
TYPES OF BRACES: TRADITIONAL BRACES
Dr. David Birdwell is a Board-Certified Orthodontist for aligners and braces in Midtown, OKC, with extensive training in the specialty of straightening teeth. Even what we call traditional braces are not the same as they were a few years ago. New types of metals and ceramics, new designs of braces themselves continue to make the predictability of results better. We review new techniques as they become available to continue to provide our patients with the most up to date proven techniques.
TYPES OF BRACES: INVISALIGN
Invisalign or aligner treatment allows the teeth to be moved utilizing clear removable aligners. Dr. Birdwell is also among the leading orthodontic specialists in providing Invisalign treatments. Dr. Birdwell has been involved in the treatment of many hundreds of cases. He has done extensive continuing education and has spoken to several groups regarding Invisalign care. A computerized optical scan of your teeth is used to generate a series of aligners each worn for a specific time. Almost magically, you can watch your teeth straighten! Many cases that used to require brackets can now be treated predictably with aligners.
TYPES OF BRACES: INVISIBLE BRACES
INVISABLE or LINGUAL BRACES can be an excellent alternative for those difficult treatments where esthetics is of the utmost importance. Lingual braces are customized braces that are placed on the tongue side of the teeth. This makes them invisible to the public but still as functional and effective as conventional braces. We are highly trained in the use of Lingual appliances and they will be happy to discuss this technique further during your complimentary examination.
