FAQs About Orthodontic Treatment
What orthodontic options does Grand Family Dentistry offer?
We offer traditional braces and Invisalign(R) clear aligners. The best option depends on the complexity of your case, lifestyle preferences, and timeline. A consultation includes a full records review and a recommendation specific to you.
Am I too old to get orthodontic treatment?
Not at all. We treat orthodontic patients across all adult age groups. Invisalign is particularly popular with adults who prefer a less visible option.
Can I get orthodontic treatment if I already have crowns or veneers?
This depends on the specific restorations and the degree of movement needed. Many patients with existing dental work are still good candidates. Your dentist will review your dental history and x-rays at the consultation to assess your candidacy accurately.
Does orthodontic treatment hurt?
Soreness after initial placement and each adjustment is normal and typically resolves within a few days. Invisalign users often report slightly less day-to-day discomfort than traditional braces. Over-the-counter pain relievers are usually sufficient during the adjustment period.
