On the pain and aesthetics of cosmetic dentistry

  Does it hurt to wear braces?  The love of beauty is in everyone, but the process of putting action into practice is often accompanied by pain: just like a slim body weight loss success must first get used to hunger, many people feel that in order to have each tooth lined up neatly and beautifully, you have to first put some “braces” on the teeth – a small steel brackets glued to the teeth, and then tightened with wires. A small steel bracket glued to the teeth, and then at the end of the wire on a row, the next row to pull tight …… think about all the pain! You can’t help but be discouraged.  The first thing that you need to do is to get rid of the idea that it really hurts to wear braces.  First of all, we have to abandon these traditional ideas in our minds to our bondage.  The impression of orthodontics is that brackets are glued to the surface of the teeth, that is, orthodontic braces; then the brackets are embedded in the archwires bent to the appropriate curvature, and the force applied to the archwires is used to move the teeth to realign them.  Because of the sudden force, the teeth may feel uncomfortable when the brackets are first applied. Usually, you will feel weakness in chewing and pressure on the surface of the teeth, and the discomfort will gradually disappear after two to three days. At this time, you should pay attention to oral hygiene, preferably use special orthodontic toothbrushes, eat less sugar and carbohydrates, avoid hard and sticky food, rinse your mouth frequently, check your mouth and clean your teeth according to your doctor’s requirements.  Braces also come in many “shapes” – in addition to the usual stainless steel locking brackets, there are translucent plastic brackets, and clear ceramic brackets. The latter two types of brackets are like wearing a cloak of invisibility, making the “steel teeth” in your mouth almost invisible to everyone!  With the development of technology and orthodontic materials, orthodontic technology now also emphasizes light force orthodontic treatment, the use of high-performance orthodontic devices to minimize patient discomfort, so now there are often patients wearing braces for a period of time to the doctor said “doctor, my teeth do not seem to hurt much, this orthodontic effect” and even to the Second, the increasingly advanced modern science and technology allows us to loosen the traditional “dental braces”, so that the process of orthodontics becomes more and more relaxed and comfortable.  Lingual Braces Lingual braces are brackets that are placed on the inside of the teeth, on the side of the tongue. If you are just talking and eating, you will not even notice that there are two layers of “steel teeth” inside your teeth. This orthodontic technique is particularly beautiful, invisible brackets wire, the surface of the teeth will be much lower decalcification phenomenon and decay rate. Of course, the orthodontic process, but still need to do a good job of oral cleaning, otherwise food debris stuck in the inner braces around the easy to cause gingivitis or inner tooth decay!  This orthodontic surgery was first created in 1979 by Dr. Craven Kurz, and has a 30-year history abroad. But in our country because the scope of implementation is small, the operation of the physician requires a high degree of learning, because these techniques must go abroad for a longer period of time. At present, this technology is mainly carried out in a few large cities in the provincial/municipal dental hospitals, so patients should consult with their local dental hospital before making a decision.  Invisible braces Invisible braces is an orthodontic technique that uses a series of personalized clear aligners to complete orthodontic treatment according to each individual’s actual situation. It has the advantages of aesthetics, precise positioning and easy cleaning because a computer is used to automatically measure the dental model and create the aligners.
