Orthodontics can be done in different cosmetic treatment methods, but therapeutic orthodontics is different from cosmetic. Today, there is a great growth in the number of dental patients, especially in the cosmetic treatment field, and many individuals refer to dentists for dental implants, dental laminates and composites, in order to obtain a more beautiful face and a beautiful smile.
The question that comes to the minds of the general public in this field is: Is it possible to straighten teeth that have been covered, implanted, or otherwise? In response to this question, it should be said that it is possible to perform orthodontic treatment in addition to cosmetic surgery.
However, many individuals worry about the possibility of damage to the crown that is worn on the teeth, due to the injuries that orthodontic devices may cause to the crown. But fortunately, orthodontic treatments are performed by an experienced orthodontist in addition to cosmetic treatments without causing any damage or problems.
In general, 3 methods are used to straighten teeth that have been restored, and these methods are:
Invisible removable orthodontic treatment method, whose appliances are attached to the front of the teeth, but others are not able to see it because it is transparent.
Fixed orthodontic treatment, where the brackets are permanently attached to the teeth.
Lingual orthodontic treatment method, in which brackets and other appliances are installed on the back of the teeth.
Frequently asked questions about treatment or cosmetic orthodontics
1- Is the assignment of cosmetic orthodontics different from the therapeutic one?
The cost of cosmetic dentistry services is estimated after examining the patient and is paid in one session. The cost of cosmetic dentistry is not covered by the original and complementary insurance companies. But the cost of orthodontics can be paid during the period of orthodontic treatment. As you know, orthodontic treatment does not end in one session and may take from one to two years.
