Achieve a HEALTHY AND HAPPY
SMILE
www.marstonorthodontics.com
Even in happy moments,
some people resist smiling
or they cover their smile
with their hand. The
reason is: their crooked
teeth embarrass them. If
you’re among them, then
it’s the right time to
schedule an appointment
with an orthodontist.

Orthodontists are dentists who
are trained and specialize in
making teeth move and
realigning crooked teeth into a
straight, healthy smile.
According to the American
Association of Orthodontics, "In
the U.S., one in five orthodontic
patients is an adult”. Here’s
what you should know if you’re
considering getting orthodontic
treatment.

What Are The Signs Or Symptoms Of Orthodontic Problems?
• Take a look at your teeth, if
•
you see any signs of crooked
teeth, gaps between the teeth,
or overlapping teeth,
orthodontic treatment may be
necessary.
Look at your jaw alignment.
Does the jaw shift off center
during biting down? If you see
any misalignment or shifting of
the jaw, then you may require
early orthodontic treatment.

Will I need to have teeth extracted for braces?
Removing teeth is sometimes
required to achieve the best
orthodontic result. However,
with advance treatment
procedures, removing teeth
is not always necessary for
orthodontic treatment.

How Often Will I Have Appointments?
Appointments are scheduled
according to each patient's
needs. Most patients in braces
will be seen every 4 to 6 weeks.
If there are specific situations
that require more frequent
monitoring, your orthodontist
will schedule those
appointments accordingly.

How Often Should I Brush My Teeth While In Braces?
Patients should maintain
good oral hygiene by
brushing their teeth after each
meal, in the morning, and
before going to bed. Your
orthodontist will show each
patient how to properly brush
and floss the teeth with braces.
