We work in conjunction with your dentist to ensure optimal success for your orthodontic procedure, which includes good oral hygiene and oral health. We also work in conjunction with specialists in oral-maxillofacial surgery, should surgery be indicated (for example, in severe jaw malalignment).<\/p>\n

Appliances<\/strong><\/p>\n As discussed further below, fixed braces can help properly align teeth. However, they increase the risk of developing caries.\u00a0 Therefore, treatment with fixed braces should start when the second dentition is close to completion and treatment time should be kept as short as possible.\u00a0 During the transition phase, removable appliances can assist with treatment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n – Ceramic braces with spring clips <\/p>\n Carriere Systems<\/strong><\/p>\n Carriere Systems help rectify the incorrect connection between the teeth that can result when the upper and lower jaws do not fit together.\u00a0 Because of the need to wear elastics with this system, patient compliance is important.\u00a0 However, the use of the Carriere System can significantly shorten the treatment time needed for fixed appliances or aligners when used before these other treatments are started.<\/p>\n Nearly invisible treatment appliances<\/strong><\/p>\n – Missing permanent teeth: Congenitally missing lateral incisor teeth are not uncommon, and there are various treatment options to address this.\u00a0 Minipins reduce the treatment time compared to more traditional methods. They also allow for 2 different treatment options: space closure, or space opening with subsequent prosthetic placement. We work with each patient individually to determine the optimal treatment based on the starting positions of the teeth and jaw.<\/p>\n – Preprosthodontic treatment It is never too late\u2026 Orthodontic treatments can be performed at any age, and we are able to treat individuals […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1984,"parent":0,"menu_order":8,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/naviitem.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1797","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.2","language":"en","enabled_languages":["de","en","ko"],"languages":{"de":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"ko":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1797"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1797\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1984"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bae2.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n

\nTraditional braces rely on the use of elastics and fixed wires to straighten teeth; however, this can result in plaque accumulation. In contrast, braces with spring clips use closeable metal clips, which create less friction and pressure than traditional braces. This is more efficient than traditional braces and is associated with less plaque development, and therefore they also have a lower risk of teeth developing \u201cwhite spots,\u201d which are white areas surrounding the edges of the braces.<\/p>\n
\nCeramic braces are another treatment option that use closeable clips, which eliminates the need for the elastics that are associated with traditional braces. Ceramic braces are comfortable to wear because their shape is flat and rounded. Additionally, they are white in color, and are therefore less noticeable on the teeth than traditional braces.\u00a0 Because of their desirable esthetics and comfort, in addition to their good price-performance ratio, ceramic braces are a popular choice for many patients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\nThe BioBiteCorrector is an orthodontic device that corrects the distance between the front teeth in the upper and lower jaws when the distance is too large.\u00a0 Depending on the patient\u2019s age, it can also correct the retracted position of the lower jaw.\u00a0 This device is favored for its efficiency and effectiveness, in addition to it not requiring the use of elastics or exterior appliances (headgear), which decreases the need for strict patient compliance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\nThe lingual braces are fixed braces which are attached to the back of the teeth and\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0are therefore nearly invisible. Lingual braces are able to complete the same tasks as traditional braces but are a popular choice for adults when esthetics are important.\u00a0 These braces are customized to ensure placement is precise; each brace is placed into the one exact position on every tooth.\u00a0 Due to placement on the back of the teeth, there is an acclimation period during the first 2 weeks that may affect word pronunciation and may cause mild tongue irritation.<\/li>\n
\nOur practice strives to offer orthodontic treatments that minimally affect our patients\u2019 esthetics and quality of life while offering optimal comfort. Invisible aligners are one example. They can be worn while playing sports or going about the daily activities of one\u2019s day, making the treatment goal of wearing the aligners 22 hours per day easily obtainable.\u00a0 Additionally, they are removable, ensuring easy access to the teeth when completing tasks of daily oral hygiene.\u00a0 Treatment plans are made at the beginning of treatment, which outline each step to make the process transparent and comprehensible.<\/li>\n
\nThe fixed retainer stabilizes each tooth\u2019s new position following treatment completion and removal of braces.\u00a0 It is a device that consists of a thin wire attached to the back side of the upper and lower front teeth. This ensures the visible teeth remain aligned following treatment with braces.<\/li>\n
\nMinipins are small pins that are attached at the palate and various regions of the upper and lower jaws.\u00a0 They have a wide range of functions and help ensure treatments are performed efficiently while simultaneously decreasing the risk of adverse effects.Minpins have a wide range of uses:
\n– Movement of the posterior teeth:\u00a0 Minipins help decrease the need for external appliances (for example, headgear), and help decrease the risk of adverse events while the posterior teeth are migrating. This helps decrease the treatment time, as well.<\/p>\n
\nThere are certain scenarios when a gap in the teeth is blocked by adjacent teeth, or when \u201coverhanging\u201d teeth can make a prosthodontic restoration difficult. In these situations, minipins help ensure the necessary treatment is performed discreetly and efficiently, and at times the use of minipins decreases the need to have treatments completed in a region that may be highly visible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
