Veneers
Patients may lose their teeth for many reasons. Lack of oral hygiene is the main reason. Other causes of tooth loss are trauma, accident, severe tooth decay, and fracture of the tooth. There are several ways to replace a missed tooth; the best of them are dental implants. If the patient has lost a tooth, there are several options for orthodontics. In some cases, orthodontics can be used to close the gap and straighten the rest of the teeth. This option is suitable for patients with severely crooked teeth.
If the missed tooth is to be replaced, a space maintainer with a brace is used to preserve the space of the lost tooth for future restorations. If the area is insufficient, the brace is used to open the space for inserting dental implants in the future. It all depends on the diagnosis of the emergency dentist. Keep in mind that if you want to have brighter teeth, teeth whitening treatments are usually suggested by your dentist.
Braces before Dental Implants
If you need implants and braces at the same time, the cosmetic dentist usually advised to have orthodontic treatment first because when the implant is placed in the jaw, it cannot move like a natural tooth. The implant is fixed in the jaw and does not have a ligament-like natural tooth, which allows it to move and change its position. For many patients, orthodontic treatment is used to create a space for the new tooth and to move the adjacent teeth to the right place.
Orthodontic with Dental Implants
With advancing age, the front teeth become more crooked. This means that over time the implant site may be inappropriate compared to other teeth. In this situation, the patient can apply a brace in the emergency dental clinic to move the teeth adjacent to the dental implant. In some cases, the patient may prefer to have the implant removed, orthodontic treatment to correct his smile design. After removing the braces, the implants are inserted in place again.
Orthodontic with Dental Crowns
A dental crown is used to cover a tooth that has been decayed, cracked, or undergoes root canal therapy in cosmetic dentistry. If you have dental crowns, you can still get orthodontics. When brackets are mounted on the teeth, a special adhesive is used to attach them to the crown. Other parts of the treatment are no different. Dental crowns can also be used to straighten teeth, which have special requirements and should be done with the advice of a cosmetic dentist.
Orthodontic with Veneer and Composite
Veneers are a thin layer of porcelain or material that adheres to the outer surface of the tooth to hide the gap between the teeth and the discoloration of them. If your teeth need a brace and a veneer, it is better to have orthodontics first. Because attaching the bracket to the veneer can damage its surface. Adhesives that adhere to the teeth can leave yellow stains on the veneer. Possibility of orthodontics with dental implants, veneers, and crowns requires careful examination in the dental clinic and expert opinion of the emergency dentist.
