Prepare for your orthodontics assessment: compare alternatives, understand care and know what to ask about your quote.
Appearance is one factor. Bite, required movements and wear consistency also matter. Diagnosis allows comparison of options for your case.
| Feature | Braces | Aligners |
|---|---|---|
| Wear | Fixed to teeth. | Removable with a prescribed schedule. |
| Hygiene | Cleaning around brackets and wires. | Removal to clean teeth and trays. |
| Follow-up | Adjustments and retention afterwards. | Check-ups and retention afterwards. |
Age alone does not determine suitability. Gums, teeth, restorations and bite are reviewed. BE SMILE treats children, teenagers and adults with individual planning.
Timing depends on bite complexity, movements and treatment response. After records, request an estimate and understand the planned check-up frequency.
Follow hygiene and appliance instructions. Attend check-ups and report broken parts or changes in fit. Gum care remains necessary throughout treatment.
BE SMILE prepares a quote after assessment. Cost considers: Appliance type, complexity, check-ups and retention; confirm what the quote includes. Reception confirms the first consultation fee before booking.
Ask reception about payment methods and current terms or promotions for your plan. Availability is confirmed directly with the clinic; request inclusions, terms and total cost in writing.
Suitability depends on the case. Ask how they compare with other options for the movements you need.
Not in every case. That decision requires diagnosis and explanation of alternatives before starting.
Discomfort may occur at the start or after adjustments. Contact the team if it is severe, persistent or causes an injury.
Retention is part of the plan after treatment. Type and wear schedule are prescribed by your provider; confirm how it is included in the quote.
The AAO recommends an initial orthodontic check-up by age 7, or earlier if a problem is noticed. An assessment does not imply immediate treatment.
