As people’s demand for dental aesthetics increases, more and more people are joining the orthodontic army. About the “orthodontic” all kinds of, are you full of doubts? Your “hundred thousand reasons”, today to answer! “Orthodontics”, medically known as “orthodontics”, is a comprehensive correction of dental, jaw and facial deformities. Choosing orthodontics is choosing health and beauty. Baby’s cute “circumcision”, do I need to correct it? “‘Parietal’ is a kind of malocclusion of the teeth, and it is important to seek early medical treatment and early intervention to avoid aggravation of the deformity.” The normal occlusal relationship of the front teeth is that the upper teeth are located in front of the lower teeth. If the lower jaw is longer than the upper jaw, the front teeth of the lower jaw are located on the outer side of the front teeth of the upper jaw during occlusion, which is called “anterior antomandibular”, commonly known as “geomandibular”. In early childhood, “circumcised” children like “beak”, some parents will think “cute”, do not realize that this is a problem. When the child reaches puberty and enters another peak period of jaw development, due to the underdevelopment of the upper jaw and overdevelopment of the lower jaw, the face becomes longer and the shape of the face becomes deflated, which is not a good look, and it will be difficult to correct it at this time. The “periosteum” is a kind of malocclusion of the teeth, and it is necessary to seek medical treatment and intervention as early as possible to avoid aggravation of the deformity. If you can intervene early, you can stimulate the growth of the maxilla to a certain extent, so that the development of the upper and lower jaws can be coordinated, avoiding the need for orthognathic surgery in adulthood. Once the optimal period of correction is missed, in addition to aligning the teeth through orthodontic treatment, the patient will have to wait until adulthood for orthognathic surgery to normalize the shape of his/her face. There are many reasons for “parietal”, such as genetic misalignment of structures, adverse stimuli, misaligned bite, etc. Some mothers like to “lie down” and “lie on their backs”, but this is not the case. Some mothers like to “lie down to feed”, which is a common adverse stimuli – the baby in order to more easily suck milk, will unconsciously jaw forward, over time may lead to “geobaozi This is a common undesirable stimulus – the baby will unconsciously extend his jaw forward in order to suckle more easily, which may lead to the “geodesic” in time. Why” before orthodontic treatment? 1. Doctor, is it possible not to extract the teeth? “In the process of orthodontic treatment, the doctor is both the designer and the builder. Whether or not to extract the teeth is a comprehensive consideration of how many teeth the alveolar bone can accommodate after the reconstruction of the patient’s dental structure is completed and decided.” “Doctor, can I not have my teeth extracted?” This is the most common question asked by many first-time patients seeking orthodontic treatment. In fact, the very notion of asking this question is misplaced. In order to match the teeth to the jawbone and achieve the best balanced results in terms of health, function and aesthetics, for those who do not have enough space, it is often necessary to remove varying numbers of teeth, depending on the individual’s situation. Therefore, if a patient insists on not extracting a tooth after the doctor has made it clear that the tooth needs to be extracted, he or she is taking the “right to design” away from the doctor and treating the doctor as a builder, which is a kind of role mismatch. When making a treatment plan, you should listen to the doctor’s professional opinion. If in order to cater to some patients “do not want to pull out the teeth” of the psychological, the patient proposed treatment program “obey”, on the surface of the patient’s “respect”, but in fact it is a kind of Irresponsible performance. 2.Why do different doctors offer different programs? “Finding an orthodontist is like choosing a remodeling company. For the same house, different remodeling companies will give different remodeling plans. The same goes for orthodontics.” Some people will wonder why the same person straightening their teeth will get different treatment plans from different doctors. The orthodontic treatment plan is the result of the doctor’s professional and comprehensive assessment. On the one hand, it is related to the doctor’s ability to assess the condition of the patient’s teeth and his ability to treat them, and on the other hand, it is also related to the doctor’s result of assessing the health of the adjusted tooth structure. In the process of comprehensive assessment, the need to weigh the pros and cons, to make trade-offs, different doctors have different considerations, so the development of the program will not be exactly the same. 3.Why do some people need surgery for “orthodontic treatment”? “Simply through the orthodontic correction of teeth is a certain limit, orthodontic can not change the length of the bone. For some patients with bony deformities of the jaw, they can only change the length of the bone through surgery, and then adjust its functional position.” For the results of orthodontic treatment, in addition to the appearance, the occlusal relationship of the teeth and chewing function should also be considered. The best occlusal relationship is the upper and lower teeth upright to bite, when the teeth bear the greatest force, chewing force is also the greatest. For patients with mild bony deformities, the doctor will use dental compensation for masking correction, by making the lower teeth tilt inward to restore the normal occlusal relationship. However, for some patients with severe bony deformities, if only masking correction is carried out, the tilting angle of the teeth is often very large, even resulting in root exposure, which seriously affects the normal function of the teeth. Such patients usually need combined orthodontic-orthognathic treatment, that is, correcting the bony deformity through orthognathic surgery, and then restoring the normal occlusal relationship of the teeth through orthodontics. 4. Is “seven days” orthodontic treatment reliable? “Beauty is the most commercially valuable symbol. But don’t forget, orthodontics is essentially a branch of medicine, the primary goal of medicine is health, and the real beauty is built on health and function.” The so-called “seven days” or even “one day” fast teeth straightening, many times it is the concept of orthodontics is stolen, the use of treatment of the symptoms rather than the root cause of the problem, to put it politely, some of them are in fact the real teeth into false teeth, based on the irreversible damage to the teeth! -For example, by grinding down the uneven teeth and installing porcelain teeth to restore the apparent straightness. The “why” of orthodontics? 1. The shorter the follow-up period, the better? “The more specialized the doctor, the longer the interval between follow-up visits, usually 6-8 weeks.” The metabolic cycle of osteoblasts in the alveolar bone takes at least 4 weeks, and usually the follow-up cycle should be more than 4 weeks. The more specialized the doctor, the longer the intervals between follow-up visits, usually 4-8 weeks. Less experienced doctors will set a slightly shorter interval, such as about 4 weeks, in order to observe the speed and direction of the patient’s teeth, and make timely adjustments to the inappropriate areas. Therefore, the follow-up cycle is not the shorter the better, 4-8 weeks are normal, which is determined by the alveolar bone osteoblast metabolic cycle, do not blame the doctor “lazy”! 2, the more pain orthodontic more effective? “Whether or not there is acid and soft and teeth moving speed is not necessarily related. Sour and soft does not mean that the teeth move fast, not sour and soft does not mean that the teeth do not move.” When you first put on your “braces”, or after each follow-up visit to apply pressure, your teeth may become uncomfortable. To be precise, this discomfort should be a kind of soreness and softness, rather than what is usually called pain. The degree of tenderness is related to the doctor’s level of expertise. An experienced surgeon will see his patients return to their normal soreness within 1-2 days of having the “braces” put on. For most patients, a week or so of tenderness is normal. The degree of soreness is also related to the sensitivity of the individual patient, and each person will feel differently after wearing “braces”. Generally speaking, children and teenagers are in the jawbone and alveolar bone growth and reconstruction of the active period, wearing “braces” after the reaction is not as strong as adults. 3. Can I wait until the next visit after the brackets fall out? “Once the brackets fall out, you should contact the attending doctor immediately for prompt treatment.” Some patients who have fallen out of their aligner brackets usually wait until their next follow-up appointment to have their brackets reattached because of scheduling problems. As soon as the brackets fall out, you should contact your primary care physician to see if an immediate follow-up appointment is necessary. With orthodontic appliances such as brackets and wires, the doctor applies a force of a certain strength and direction to the entire set of teeth, when the force is more evenly distributed on each tooth. When brackets fall out, the forces that were appropriate may become obstructive and destructive, affecting the entire orthodontic treatment process. If a person is out of town and unable to return after a problem arises, emergency treatment can be performed at a local formal dental facility, with a follow-up appointment immediately upon return.
