Las Vegas Orthodontist Answers Question About "Getting Braces"

Patient: "I'm 15 years old and im getting braces on soon..I have very crowded teeth and a large overbite. Im worried that i might need over things besides braces. Do you think i would need other appliances beside braces? I was also wondering how do they put braces on and what are the spacers for. I forgot to ask my ortho thses questions because i was nervous?"

Kate T. Nguyen, DDS, MS: " That's great to hear that you're getting improving your smile and the health of your teeth with braces. As for your question regarding appliances, each individual is different and it depends on your "bite" if you need appliances or not. Your orthodontist will be the best person to assess and answer that question for you. Also for spacers, they are used to make space between the teeth to fit the braces made for the back teeth, which are also called bands. And how braces are put on is a simple process of gluing the braces onto the teeth with a glue made specifically for teeth. Generally, the day you get the braces on is really easy, so don't worry too much about it. Let me know if you have any other questions!"

Las Vegas Orthodontics Practice Reviews Holiday Care Tips.

Orthodontist in Las Vegas discusses ways to avoid tooth decay.

It’s the holiday season and there are lots of sweet and sugary foods around.  If a food highly consistent of sugar is stuck to your teeth for more than 20 minutes you may risk a breakdown of tooth enamel, which can lead to tooth decay and/or gum disease.

We recommend that patients avoid chewing on candy cane or hard candy – these types of “sweets” can cause the most damage. If you are eating foods high in sugar and starch we recommend that you brush your teeth immediately and/or rinse your mouth with water.

Also, it is very important for you to maintain your regular checkups with your dentist. If you have any more questions please call us at 702.463.7400 or visit Las Vegas Orthodontist.
