Frequently Asked Questions About Orthodontic Treatments

Have questions about braces, Invisalign, retainers, or early orthodontic care? Explore answers to common questions and learn what to expect from Cosse & Silmon Orthodontics.

What is the best orthodontic treatment for me?

The best orthodontic treatment depends on your smile, bite, goals, and lifestyle. Cosse & Silmon Orthodontics offers a full range of treatment options tailored to each patient’s unique needs, including traditional metal or clear braces, custom clear aligners, Damon™ Smile self-ligating braces, and airway-aware treatment. During your consultation, the team will evaluate your smile and recommend the option that fits you best.

How long does orthodontic treatment usually take?

Orthodontic treatment time varies depending on the severity of the case and the type of treatment used. In many cases, treatment takes between 18 and 24 months, but it may be shorter or longer depending on the individual.

What are the benefits of orthodontic treatment?

Orthodontic treatment can do more than straighten teeth. It can improve the appearance of your smile, help correct bite issues, support better oral health, and boost confidence. At Cosse & Silmon Orthodontics, the goal is to create more than beautiful smiles. The team helps patients build confidence, improve health, and enjoy results that last.

What are the common types of orthodontic treatments?

Common orthodontic treatments include traditional metal braces, clear braces, custom clear aligners, Damon™ Smile self-ligating braces, retainers, and early orthodontic treatment for children when needed. Not all orthodontic problems require traditional braces, and options like clear aligners can be used to correct many common orthodontic issues.

At what age should I see an orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children receive their first orthodontic evaluation by age seven. This allows orthodontists to detect potential issues early and recommend treatment at the right time. Adults can also benefit from orthodontic care, so it is never too late to schedule a consultation.

Do I need a referral from my dentist to receive orthodontic care?

No referral is usually needed to schedule an orthodontic consultation. While your dentist may recommend seeing an orthodontist, you can also reach out directly if you have concerns about your smile, bite, spacing, crowding, or your child’s orthodontic development.

Why should I choose Cosse & Silmon for orthodontic treatment?

Cosse & Silmon Orthodontics offers personalized care, advanced diagnostics, flexible treatment options, and a warm, family-friendly environment. Their team focuses on more than straight teeth, creating confident smiles that support each patient’s health, happiness, and future.
